I was @ the NC State game last year and everyone in the stadium knew where the play was going, but that made no difference, more often than not we ripped off good gains. Most college teams today are designed to stop the spread, so personnel wise they're aren't best suited to deal w/ our power game. I've posted before that the Achilles heal of BC football has always been lack of speed. I think this is one of the ways Daz has decided to deal w/ that. This makes sense to me, but w/ an offense that looks to control the clock, I'm not sold on Brown's gambling defense. We give up too many big plays and we don't have the offense to make up for these lapses in a hurry. Maybe w/ better defensive personnel this won't continue to be such a glaring weakness.Hoibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12681823413809048599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-78687556304562886592014-06-30T20:09:34.343-04:002014-06-30T20:09:34.343-04:00If there is 1 position I'm not concerned about...If there is 1 position I'm not concerned about on an addazio coached team, it's the olineClaver2010https://www.blogger.com/profile/15415082560035841418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-81079448673944412652014-06-30T18:58:50.173-04:002014-06-30T18:58:50.173-04:00Didn't FSU win the national football title las...Didn't FSU win the national football title last year?Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14012650441404599363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-61586267682612386502014-06-30T17:36:58.644-04:002014-06-30T17:36:58.644-04:00Although I didn't see the 2nd and 3rd games, i...Although I didn't see the 2nd and 3rd games, it was cool that schools like Vanderbilt and Virginia were in the CWS final.<br /><br />Virginia was very close to being crowned.<br /><br />SEC Football is close to being a professional deal the way they bring in players on one year renewables, and let players go every year. It's all pretty quiet.<br /><br />But you can't recruit 30 players every year without playing checkers with scholarships and cutting players loose who don't cut the mustard, or who get injured. It's a tough business in the SEC.<br /><br />When coaches get paid $6 million, they are not going to take chances on renewing scholarships on players on the margin.Big Jack Krackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202172743722727956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-31592901840440415722014-06-30T17:23:03.399-04:002014-06-30T17:23:03.399-04:00I think we'll see that Frank Taylor and Jim Ca...I think we'll see that Frank Taylor and Jim Cashman will step up and be ready if needed.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to my Finance Major, Jim Cashman having a good year. He was the Jersey Player of the Year two years ago - no small accomplishment.<br /><br />Also, Aaron Kramer, Dave Bowen and Paul Gaughan.<br /><br />Hopefully we can redshirt John Baker, James Hendren and Sam Schmal for that tough OL we will need going forward.Big Jack Krackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202172743722727956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-72624636750035498972014-06-30T17:18:52.640-04:002014-06-30T17:18:52.640-04:00As much as it pains me to say it, the SEC is the b...As much as it pains me to say it, the SEC is the best athletic conference in the country over the three major sports. Since 2000, it has five baseball titles and six runners-up. The ACC has none and three runners-up. In football, seven of the last eight and one runner-up. And more draft picks than anyone. In basketball, the ACC has eight since 1990, the afterthought sport in the SEC has six. Not bad. <br /><br />If BC played in the SEC it would win one conference game. Happy fourth.

Concerns over next years line are valid. BC will have to replace all five starters in 2015. The group will be very young. This year they have a veteran group which should produce. 2. Expect much of the passing game to be to the tight ends, fullback and running backs. They only have to pass for 150 yards a contest to equal last years output. If Murphy is healthy that goal is easily obtainable. 3. In the BCS bowls last year the Big 10 won one game. The Big 12 won one game. The American won one game and the ACC won two games. The all powerful SEC lost it's two games. So much for dominance and superiority. Happy July 4th.NEDofSavinHillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02337433376275407168noreply@blogger.com
