Thursday Night LIVE

Welcome. We're watching Georgia Tech @ Miami ... and listening to Tiger Talk on radio affiliates throughout Alabama.

CURRENT SCORE (game is on ESPN HD)

MIAMI - 33


GEORGIA TECH - 17

Final


TIGER TALK TIDBITS
  • Gene Chizik and Rod are eating steamed mussels and meat lover's pizza. Important stuff first.

  • On this week's work: "I thought the focus was really high and I thought our football team (thanks, RK) practiced well this week."

  • The MSU win: ``It was really good to see our football realy go up and go back down. You want to find out how they respond to negative circumstances."

  • On his weird punt formation: ``It gets speed guys, on the snap, down the field for coverage. It's a coverage advantage. We just have to block it better. We worked on it hard this week."

  • On the Meerkat Manor® business: ``It's strategically an advantage for our offense. We line up like we're going to run a play, then we see what the defense is running. Then we get ourselves into a better play."

  • On the team's defensive backs: ``We're going through some growing pains. They're coming along. When you have a mixture of so many young guys on the defense, the continuity struggles a little bit. You've got your Dee Fords playing, your Daren Bates playing. Demond Washington is a new guy. The more experience they get, the better they'll be."

  • On TBs and WRs: ``We're a work in progress. Right now, we're pleased with the direction we're headed. We've had some production there. We've got to have them do it 12 (games). Then after that -- the postseason as well."

  • On the crowd at J-H: ``I'm urging our fans ... it's going to take all 87,000 and it's going to take us playing a great game on top of that. I'm challenging all our people to bring it to a new level Saturday night."

  • On WVU: ``This is right up their alley -- a physical-type game. They've got confidence. They played Auburn last year."

  • On assistants' recruiting areas: ``We've got most of our coaches in the state of Alabama. We have two in Birmingham (Thigpen and Taylor), Coach Luper kind of has Mobile and he splits that area with Jeff Grimes. Boulware has Montgomery and close to Auburn. (Phillip Lolley handles north Alabama.) The amount of hours they spend are insignificant. They just want to win. That's what recruiting is about."

  • On Eltoro Freeman: ``Toro is, since we started practice, he's had a lot of ups and downs because of injury issues. It was great to see him wean himself into the game last week. We think little but little ... he can play more and more."

  • On the defense and Chizik's role with the defense: ``It's really just going what we do every day and doing it better. We're not re-inventing the wheel. What I've learned over the years with all the great defenses I've been with, continuity is the key. Coach Roof and I consult on a lot of things. I hire great coaches. He's great at his trade. I have great people and we'll get better. I don't have to micro-manage anything. I have the big-picture look."

  • On the freshman WRs: ``I'm really, really proud of those three guys. (Benton, Blake and Gulley) This is a work in progress with them. People think when receivers come in that their job is to catch the ball. That's it. That's not true. We run the ball, too. The wide receivers are responsible for blocking the (final) 95 yards. Those three are getting there. They're not there. You'll see them progress a little more week by week by week."

  • Now it's dessert time for Gene and Rod. Sounds like they're getting some "light" chocolate mousse. Important news.

  • On how Auburn fans are smart: ``I get a lot of great questions. I hear them a lot. The Auburn faithful -- they're very educated about football and they know the game."

  • On injuries: ``Day by day on a lot of guys. I just ... you never know who's listening. You never want someone to know if someone is going to be out. It's not fair to the young man or their families."

    (NOTE: Chizik's position on Aairon Savage is that he's DAY-BY-DAY ... with a torn Achilles.)

  • On Tim Hawthorne: ``We want Tim back as soon as we can get Tim back. He's worked really hard. He's done all the things we've asked. He's dying inside to play. He has a lot of urgency to get back."

  • On the freshmen WRs AGAIN (please shoot me): ``Dontae is really going to be a very good football player. Our plan right now is to redshirt him. He's our "look team" (scout team) player of the week this week. He did a good job of playing Noel Devine. I told him at practice at how proud I was of him assuming a role ... that's a lot of dirty work. He plugged in there and did what we asked him to do."

  • Kathy, not OUR Kathy, loves the offensive line: ``They appreciate that. You wanna talk about a dirty job? I don't believe in bad luck, but they haven't give up a sack. (Applause) The cool thing is, from my chair, is to watch them come together and play with chemistry. Why is that? There's a lot of ingredients to make that cake. They've delivered. They wear people down. You can really see a difference in the third quarter."

  • Dan from Montgomery is a WVU grad, but he's an Auburn fan at heart. He wants Auburn fans to show class for WVU. Oh, wait. That wasn't a question. Dan doesn't want Noel Devine to beat that butt again: ``Great question. He's a great running back. He rushed for 200 yards last year, Rod, but that was last year. I feel really good in our plan. We've got a good grip on what we need to do to be successful."

  • Dave from Opelika wants to know if FAH is durable: ``He's a tough young'un. Time will tell. I think he's very durable. There's nobody on our team who is tougher. He's been through a lot. Those two (FAH and Ben Tate) are in the mix. They'll always be in the mix."

  • On recruits: "We have some great recruits coming this weekend. It's going to be very important for our crowd to bring their 'A' game - not just for this game, but for the future of Auburn. It's going to take everybody to win."

  • "War Eagle."

  • THAT'S A WRAP.

I take it back, I like Miami in a rout.

NOT 1st

Typed my dang Username wrong!!! Cost me a step.

7:03 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

GT is going to take them. They are the most manly football team and you can't win with a coordinator named Whipple. That just isn't right.

7:04 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Miami's offense is looking good. They too are much improved from last year. Sorry Pat Nix, you are not a good OC.

7:04 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

The knock I have on GT and their offense is this, when the score gets down by more than 2 scores, what do you do??? That's a problem, especially since they have no threat of a passing game.

7:05 PM  
Blogger E-Bro said...

Where's the blog preview Eddie?

7:05 PM  
Blogger cincytiger said...

Posted this on the last thread, but will repost it here:

Just had a friend email me and ask about seats on Row 5 in Jordan Hare. Wondering if they are too low to see anything? Has anyone sat down that low that could give me feedback?

7:05 PM  
Blogger E-Bro said...

Being down a couple of scores wasn't an issue for Tech last year against UGA.

7:06 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Cincy- That's way too low. Hard to see anything. You will spend most of the game watching from Jumbotron. Need to be at least 10 rows up to actually see.

Brother- I have done all the research, but just haven't posted it. Not sure if anyone reads it. I'll get it out there tomorrow.

7:08 PM  
Blogger digger4au said...

Miami sure made that look good on offense
And now the Defense gets a stop

7:09 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Brother- Let me clarify, I mean down by 2 scores in the second half. Your right, they have time to not get out their offense early. That Georgia game is still crazy that UGA lost it.

7:09 PM  
Blogger AUfan said...

Interesting strategy to give the ball to GT at the 40 yd line every possession.

7:10 PM  
Blogger E-Bro said...

Cincy, we use to sit around rows 4 or 5 right behind the Auburn bench. It wasn't ideal in that sometimes you have to stand up the whole time to see over the players/coaches, but it's not something that bothered us greatly. I mean, if your friend can get tickets a little big higher, tell them to do it, but it's not like I would never do it again or anything.

7:10 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Miami like most of the ACC teams will now force GT to throw the ball in order to move it. They will stack the box and force the pitch with guys waiting a majority of the time.

7:10 PM  
Blogger Kathy said...

Husband came home with a 52" Samsung 750 LCD just in time for kickoff! I thought my Sony Bravia XBR was good, but this picture blows that one away. After this game is over, I'm going to have to watch last week's Auburn game that's on the DVR.

7:11 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

cincy - I agree with Eddie. Too low, no go.

7:11 PM  
Blogger E-Bro said...

I read it bro.

7:11 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

AUFAN- Judging by the Kicker's reaction, i'm betting that was not intentional in kicking the ball out of bounds.

Cincy, tell your friends to use the tix to get in the stadium and then find open seats later.

7:13 PM

Open seats Kristina? You think there will be empty seats this weekend.

We could all be a bammer like Sensi this week and sell our tickets.....

Are we going to need boats to get to Auburn Saturday? We've had lots of rain in North Alabama.

no seats up in the upper deck corners? They've been empty both games thus far.

Cincy,

I have sat that low before and I couldn't see much. Thank goodness for the jumbo-tron. I like to be up at least around row 30 in order to to see the whole field.

7:16 PM  
Blogger E-Bro said...

Miami's passing looks like Auburn's. Throw it deep every throw.

7:16 PM  
Blogger cincytiger said...

Thanks for the advice on the seating. I have passed it on.

Harris is feast or famine on his passes, unless its a called screen.

7:17 PM

I've wondered the same thing, Jane. Theoretically, that sounds good.

7:21 PM

Jay,

Do you think that Coach Chizik is upset with Coach Boulware about our special team play so far?

7:22 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

So, is there really a huge sign in the RV Lot at Donahue that says "Welcome Brokeback Mountainers"?

7:23 PM  
Blogger Jay G. Tate said...

IV: Probably not because Chizik is Boulware's mentor. It's not like Boulware is out there running his own stuff. He's running stuff he learned from Chizik.

7:23 PM  
Blogger Jay G. Tate said...

The Meerkat Manor question wasn't bad ... it was just phrased awkwardly.

TOUCHDOWN CANES

7:24 PM  
Blogger IV said...

Jay, That sounds reasonable but boy, the special team play has been our weak link so far,.

7:24 PM

This could get ugly

If they look good so far this week we must be mudders... come on rain Sat. Not really I hate sitting in rain to watch a game

7:27 PM

AU has lost every rainy or sleety game I've attended in Auburn, which isn't very many.

My favorite rainy game I attended elsewhere? The 1983 Iron Bowl

7:34 PM

Big break for Tech

7:34 PM  
Blogger IV said...

Looks like Miami has the GT running game figured out. I believe that Tech will have to throw to open up the run.

7:36 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

did Tech just run the "wrong way Bo play"? That looked messed up.

7:36 PM

I am not sure Tech has a passing game however.

Holla Jay G from ya boy JD

7:40 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

Cincy..don't sit low. The line play in a grinding running game can be viewed OK from down low. The high movement, misdirection and passing game we play now is best viewed from higher up.

Got lucky and watched the 1983 AU-UF game from the 2nd row, SW endzone. Much of the game was played at that endzone. AU knocked Wayne Peace out of bounds at the 6" line on 4th down to win 28-21.

7:41 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

how many times can Coach Chizik say "work in progress"?


GA Tech way out of balance on offense. They are doomed unless they can figure out how to even up the scales.

Jay,

Have you heard anything about the recruits that may be visiting this weekend? I have seen rumors on other blogs, but because they are rumors, I want repeat them here.

7:44 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

That was a great game Hoopie. We watched it on tv in our B'ham apt. It was the only home game we missed that year. We made it to a couple of road games that year.

7:44 PM  
Blogger digger4au said...

I hope Chizik means by no micromanagement is HE WILL KEEP HANDS OFF THE OFFENSE

7:44 PM  
Blogger AUfan said...

THT, GT reminds me of watching AU run the wishbone under Coach Dye. The offense can be very effective, but it is difficult to come back once you get behind.

7:48 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

JayGT - you are prophetic! You type Coach Chizik's responses before I even hear them!!!

7:48 PM

If Chizik is that predictable I am glad he is not caller the offensive plays

7:51 PM  
Blogger Jay G. Tate said...

HOTTIES: If you have a friend or work associate who asks you about Dontae Aycock, I'll pay you $5 to slap them.

He's redshirting. He's not going to play. GIVE IT UP.

7:51 PM  
Blogger IV said...

I still treat it as rumors, but if the rumors turn out to be anyway close to reality, this could be one of the most important game weekend recruiting events in the recent past.

7:52 PM  
Blogger JD said...

When you have the offensive balance that Miami is showing right now with some good athletes the pro style offense is unstoppable and will wear a defense out. It is a true thing of beauty to watch.

7:53 PM

Please shoot me for saying GT was the best in the ACC last week. I think I was off my meds. Boy have I been fooled. They are about to get taken to the woodshed.

I agree JD about the beauty of the pro-style offense with players.

Recruiting- According to Rivals, Reed, Dyer & Mosely are coming to the game along with a few others. Could be a huge weekend, or could be nothing.

7:56 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

Harris and Todd seem similar in ways, in 3rd & 6, don't go for the home run ball, just get the 1st down.

7:57 PM

Jay G have there not been many questions asked this week regarding the issues we have had in the first two weeks dealing with returning punts?

7:58 PM  
Blogger IV said...

Eddie,

That is mostly what I had read along with most of our commits. That is why I asked Jay the question because I consider that to be rumors until our man confirms it.

7:58 PM  
Blogger E-Bro said...

To think, some people (ESPN) thought Miami might start off 0-4 this season. If they continue this way tonight and then beat the Hokies next week, it'll be a big time matchup when the Sooners come to town Oct. 3. Like the 1980s all over again.

7:58 PM  
Blogger JD said...

I agree with that insite eddie. However I believe that when Harris goes for the short pass it is because he believes that is statistically the best throw. Sometimes I get the vibe from Todd that he is hesitant to throw the deep ball.

7:59 PM  
Blogger Jay G. Tate said...

IV: If Rivals or P-Marsh or Jason Caldwell reports something about recruiting, I take it to the bank.

8:00 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

IV- Rivals has confirmed this from the recruits, which technically is the only people you can get this confirmation from since coaches cannot address individual recruits specifically.

8:00 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

Live Blogger Tate: Thanks for that great coverage. I lost focus a few times so it was really nice to have Tate's Tiger Tidbits for reference.

8:01 PM  
Blogger Eddie McCoy said...

I buy that JD, but Todd has passed a lot of wide open receivers short to throw into double coverage this year. I'm sure Malzahn has worked with him on this, so I hope he improves. I hope he also doesn't throw the ball off his back foot like he has been doing.

8:02 PM  
Blogger digger4au said...

Does 73 play for Tech?

8:02 PM  
Blogger JD said...

Eddie look at Miami's schedule like this. What seemed like a no shot 4 game schedule looks now like:

FSU-Won
GT-Leading 17-3 in the second
Oklahoma-Loss to BYU week 1 and Sam Bradford will be making first appearance.
VT-if they lose to Nebraska this week how hurt will that teams morale be going into Miami?

If Randy Shannon goes 4-0 against a schedule that many said he would go 0-4 against, he will be a Coach of the Year candidate.

8:03 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

well, this certainly isn't shaping up to be as entertaining as the U vs FSU game.

Could we have a GT vs Clemson replay with GT's role reversed? I don't see how.

8:03 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

IV...not to speak for Jay, but if I remember correctly he doesn't chase recruiting rumors....something along the lines of not trying to follow the whims of 17 year olds. He will, however pass on reports from other services regarding commits and credit the source.

Chizik said Auburn fans are educated about football and know the game.....It's nice of him to recognize the faithful of HABOTN specifically.

Agree AUfan. Miami's support has always been a joke, considering all the national championships they've won the last thirty years. Miami seems like the worst sports town in America. Marlins attendance is ridonculous. Even the Miami Heat had empty seats this year during the NBA playoffs. It seems like only the Dolphins get consistent support.

Hoopie,

Jay just confirmed what you just said. Better still, Coach Chizik said as much as he could about the recruits this weekend and he said the same thing I offered earlier, this could be a big weekend for both the present and the future. I appreciate Jay's position on recruiting, but I don't think I asked him anything off the wall, just did he have any idea about the possibility of some high profile recruits being there this weekend. That could be something that he had got wind of.

Wondering aloud ... do the QBs have to make more reads/decisions in the Hurricane Gustav Offense or the Trailer Park Tornado Offense (The TF System)?

My favorite quote from the first half of the game came from one of the ESPN announcers. He reminded the viewers that the clock kept running past the 2:00 mark because it does not stop like it does in the pros. Really ESPN? Well I guess I am an educated Auburn fan. I would know that. The rest of the country must be dumb.

If anybody watches Community after The Office, feel free to share thoughts. Looks good. I'll be watching Fringe, once the game is over anyway.

Yeah, that video has been going around. I posted it a while ago in one of these threads last week. It's sad but funny. My brother used to get that upset over games :)!!!!

I like the Holtz Pep talks a heck of a lot better than the retarded Dr. Lou segment.

Jet..don't know. TF's sure seemed complicated...sortof high maintenance.

CGMs seems to have a bunch of motion, yet puts the Qb in a better situation to make decisions. I haven't seen much Qb pondering going on.

My advice for Lane Kiffin: Wear battle armor at The Swamp.

Have you ever heard of "Ghosting?" These guys were on Jay Leno last night. They are funny, but I could see where this would be dangerous.

Kiffen will need the armour, especially when you are that close to the florida fans.

I expect UT to get beat soundly, but when was the last time a game where one team was suppose to demolish the other received this much hype? Wonder if that will have any effect on UF.

Hoopie ...

We intersect at the same conclusion. So many offenses put a lot of decision making on the QBs that is no wonder that teams struggle from time to time.

If Nesbitt can't pass -- and he can't -- it elevates the pressure on his decision making in the option game.

What I like about Gus is that he does have an emphasis on angles that seem to simplify the decision making process.

K - I couldn't take the pressure. Real or imagined, I just couldn't take it. I didn't want folks to be upset with me. How could I go on after that? I'd probably have to move away from Destin.

You know, I really like Paul Johnson, but there was a pretty good reason that Pat Dye gave up on the wishbone some 25 years ago.

Speed kills, or at the very least, it leaves a permanent scar.

The U has a very solid QB behind a good Oline with very good backs and adequate recievers...Does that sound familiar to anyone?

Don't say that ... it could cost your HABOTNista commission.

Now; are these the pants you borrowed from you friend Bob Sachamana and went to return them and got mugged in the subway tunnel while wearing the very pants you were going to return?
