Around SBN: Dolphins knock off Rams; get back into playoff race Bar-right-arrows



FAIL

No great prose from me this moring.  Just bastardized commentation.

Hey, I have an idea.... Maybe we should make Vandy our new SEC rival.  Then maybe our team would start giving a crap about the game every year.

I am still planning on going to the Georgia game next weekend.  But I am not planning on being happy about it.

We just lost 2 years in a row to a school that doesn't have an athletic department.  That's got to be a good talking point.

I don't know why the team lost focus.  But I hope the coaching staff runs them into the ground this week.  If they don't want to play football, they don't have to practice football.  They can just run wind sprints for 2 straight hours everyday.

At least we're not Clemson.  Although we played like them.

Interestingly enough...

I think the Georgia game will be interesting. Spurrier has to be feeling the heat, and that combined with his hatred for Georgia should be enough to keep him up at night trying to come up with a winning game plan. Although this offense seems capable of ruining the best laid plans, so who knows.

Go Cocks!

I have to admit....

First, let me start by stating that I am half drunk at a hurricane party right now… so whatever I say has to be taken with a grain of salt. (By the way, slip-n-slidin during a Tropical Storm is a lot of fun, also why I refuse to move away from Charleston. I’ve tried it, not worth it.)

Part of the original post, admittadly, was venting. What we wittnessed last night, in my opinion, is an afront to sports. I don’t want to take anything away from Vandy. They will give any SEC school fits this year. However, Fla and UGA will still handle them pretty handedly. And I can tell you, Bobby Johnson is a hell of a coach. He deserves a school with more resources than Vandy.

But that game shouldn’t have been close. At least a 2 TD difference in USC’s favor. If you consider talent alone. The one thing that I cannot accept from a team at the level of the SEC is the lack of heart that I saw last night. Our players just didn’t seem to care. At least not enough to compete. They just seemed like they were just doing a little bit more than going through the motions. (Thankfully, not as bad looking as Clemson last week.) Just my opinion. Maybe I am selling the guys a little short. I hope that I am and that they are ready to compete come Saturday.

Well...

I think the guys came out and played hard, especially the defense. It wasn’t the lack of effort but the mental mistakes that killed us. Some players just weren’t thinking out there. Munnerlyn’s gaffes stand out here, as do the special teams blocking unit. We have to come out better equipped mentally on Saturday if we’re going to keep it close.

Go Cocks!

I agree.

All in all the team didn’t play that bad. They just didn’t seem like they were thinking about what they were doing. They were out there going through the motions and assumed that their talent would win the game for them. I only hope that UGA comes into the Willy B this weekend with the same attitude.
