Bowling Green Pregame Thread

I'm excited to see Hyatt in an offense that knows how to use him. Tiyon Evans, the JUCO back, could be a superstar in this offense too.

I want to see Jeremy Banks kamikaze himself on special teams

I want to see a defense that isn't confused

 

I want to see an offense that's fun and gives you the feeling we're never out of it. Mostly I look forward to NOT seeing JG under center and pouting on the sideline.

 

I wonder who translated his original speech into English for us in the captions.

 

This right here all day long! Stretch the damn field!

 

I want to see Milton drop back on play 2 and throw it as far as he can, apparently 75 yards in the air. Hope we catch it but message sent regardless. Better guard us deep

 

Should probably try and establish that frame of reference for the defense early in every game.

 

The coaching staff showing they actually studied and prepared for the first team on our schedule would be a positive step forward compared to the last time we opened the season at home against a non power 5 opponent.

 

I still can't believe they let that happen. Could have just pounded the rock when it was clear we were broken on offense.

 

I can't believe they actually publicly admitted they overlooked GA State and didn't fully prepare for them as a ploy to garner sympathy and understanding from the fanbase. It was over for Pruitt after that, never fully recovered from that blight. Imagine an actual competent head coach like Saban not treating every game as if they were playing the Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl?

 

Pruitt was dead to me after that game. Georgia State whooped our ass too. We weren't even close to deserving to win that game by the end of it.

 

Saban credits getting beat by ULM as a huge stepping stone to getting the team to buy in.

 

It also helped them when he no longer had players selling coke at their practice facilities.

I have a feeling Saban might have actually watched game film on ULM.

 

I hope he’s added some air under his passes > 10 yards. In the highlights from last season even his deep throws were all flat lasers, which is why I’m guessing Michigan fans said he was so bad with the deep ball.

 

Hopefully he's turned a 180 from health, attitude and comfortability with the offense. I think we will see a different player who has been thru some stuff and has a fresh start at an older age with a qb coach guru.

 

A few people are saying Byron Young ruled ineligible.

 

Oh no wtf

 

Might be BS - haven’t seen it leak to VN yet.
