Have all the guys responding in here sustained blunt force head trauma?

How does having a Heisman level player justify Alabama's D and STs outscoring Shaw's offense?

Mcaffrey isn't that good. He was running the holes my grandma could score on. Those holes? They arent there this year, man.

Losing Garnett and Murphy was huge for them.

You just don't easily replace hosses like that man.

Stanford isn't Wisconsin. They were never known for Lineman until Shaw and harbaugh built that rep for them.

LoL at calling them a factory.

LOL at you not acknowledging that Stanford has been an OL factory. I'm not talking about the fcking Buddy Teevins days. I'm talking Harbaugh/Shaw. They've been an absolute factory there over the last several years.

LOL at McCaffery not being that good.

Are some of these guys really this dense?I'm amazed at the lack of cfb knowledg and other teams.

Mccaffery is a stud , great vision that constantly makes his own hole with quick cutbacks . Also has legit 44.8 -4.5 speed . I guess that ol is why he put up 300+ yards per game . With a ton of big kick and punt returns.

McCaffery set the NCAA single season all-purpose yardage record, but he's "not that good." He broke Barry Sanders' fcking record. But he's "not that good." These dudes have been clubbed about the head repeatedly.
 
Rich Rod, Dana Holgerson, Hugh Freeze, Brian Kelly, Dan Mullen, Dino Babers,Mike Leach, Jeff Brohm, Kliff Kingsbury, Paul Chryst these guys have had moderate to very good results.



BTW McCaffery is a STUD.

I don't know what game you guys are watching. McCaffrey is so good he cant replicate any of last years success? Not even on special teams?

He was running through wide open holes and was a key piece on a highly talented team; especially compared to this year's team.

It starts in the trenches. McCaffrey isn't Barry Sanders and he isn't a stud. He's no better than a **** Shipley and won't play a sustained career in the NFL.

He's a good athlete. I'd never take that away from him. But you acting like Stanford should be a Top 25 college offense JUST because he is on the roster is absurd.

He is not even Fournette or Cook good.

Fun fact about Christian McCaffrey - he's NEVER scored a touchdown in an away game....in his ENTIRE career at Stanford. Boy would that stud get eaten alive by our *****yy fan base if he played at Miami.

Dude would not be a household name if he played in the acc, big 10, or SEC. He is NOT this all star people make him out to be.

I was ready to raise the BS flag, but after further review, you are correct.

Nice catch.
 
Petrino is actually an interesting comp for richt, not because of their styles but because of what everyone seems to talk about around here: 1st year performance. Most bring up saban, but Petrino went 9-4 with a reasonably talented team and then followed it up with 8-5. He now seems to have things rolling with a mobile quarterback.

ive said that **** a 1000 tines. how many louisville fans called for petrino to stop callig plays when he turned a 1 loss team into a 4 to 5 loss team?

Same people praising him and bashing richt.
 
Another pointless play calling thread, awesome. To summarize once again-

1.Richt came here so he could call his own plays. He is not going to stop anytime soon, maybe ever. Maybe this message board will change his mind though if we start enough threads.

Shaw is a good coach in general but playcalling is not a strength of his. His playcalling has been criticized for years.
 
After the Jim Chaney disaster, I'm just glad to see that TheFranchise knows what school David Shaw is at.

Jimbo Fisher calls the plays at FSU. Larry Fedora calls the plays at UNC. Bobby Petrino calls the plays at Louisville.

What's your point?

Fisher's offense is pedestrian when viewed in light of his top 5 recruiting classes every year. If they had a quality OC they'd destroy teams.

UNC has a unique system where they script a lot of their plays including on most early downs. Fedora has never been the playcaller there, so I don't know where you got that info. Their QB coach and OL coach share that duty, and Fedora has some input. Prior to this season, Littrell called the plays there.

Petrino is on an entirely different level. He's known as one of the best playcallers in the history of the sport, and he's said to have a photographic memory. If he was our HC I'd love for him to call plays. Like I said, it's a tough racket, but it's not impossible. Petrino is on a whole different level though.

Yet his best gig is Louisville.

Let me get this straight. You don't think Petrino is elite?
