    JJ is still looking for the 50 yard line.

    No, granting losses before they happen is exactly NOT the point. The point is, execution is more important than the play call. How could you miss that point?
    Remember the game about 3 years ago, when LF7 ran wild over Auburn? We were so antiquated in our play calling in that game, that at one point in the 1st quarter, Gary Danielson actually said on air,"Folks, what you're looking at here is called the I formation." But, stud running back behind a solid offensive line, and our stone age offense lit up a decent defense. Its about execution. Fix that, and the rest will follow.

    Right, and I am saying that with E and O we need two things we dont have...

    Better talent than Bama and perfect execution. See above for why we have neither...

    If E is a genius but can’t convey it to players and get them to execute, it doesn’t work. Eaux has had 2.5 years to get it right, so far it’s hard to say we’re closer.

    We're taking small steps. Until we beat Bama, I can't call it a successful season.

    Sooooo...based on the replies to my last post, what we expect from our program are "perfect execution" and "genius" coaches.

    That's not asking much.

    Any coach that scores 1 point on Bama is a current upgrade!

    1 point is not possible...maybe the defense can get us a safety.

    Wouldn't that be something. Aranda scores before E does!
