What Are You Looking For v. UAB?

[NorthEastCane]

UAB is not a statement game. This is about working out the kinks, developing a flow, getting ready for the rest of the season. Statements will come later. I'm just excited to have a game.

Carry on.

 

[troyskiles]

Good use of the TE’s
How good these replacement DEs are
Has Nesta showed up yet
Chaney and Knighton
Noodles to ball out
And hey...how about a few made FGs. Let’s go auroraBorregales!! ( heard that here first folks)

I hope the only kicking Borre's doing is after we score touchdowns!

 

[GonzoCane]

Difference makers and a coaching staff that puts our kidss in a position to be succcessful

 

[JG14]

Reverse cowgirl. If we have a good game I should be able to make this happen post-game, so thats what I want to see happen

OFFENSE
- 3rd down conversions
- Quick, high completion throws
-Pope; its time...
-Creative use of the 3 TEs we have (lot of you forgot about Hodges. Looking for a step up from him)
-Competent OL play.

DEFENSE
-DTs that get push up the middle (Hello Nesta)
-LBs not getting lost in the wrong run fits
-Elite Safeties who PLAY like elite safeties (Gurvan showed flashes; so did Bubba before injury)

Special Teams
-Continued improvement in coverage
-The return of a decent Kicker

I’m looking forward to having a game changer at quarterback for the first time in forever. We’ve had some good guys over the years but a lot of them were more the product of playing on a great team rather than their individual ability. King makes this team significantly better.

[Canesince85ND587]

Above average to great qb play.
Competent offensive line.
Receivers thats better at catching than blocking.
PK that an hit a 40 yrd FG with ease
A coach who can make adjustments

That's all, not that much.

 

[Salt]

Use the punter once or twice max.

Just to see if he has added any new tats

 

[Brains]

Run blocking with a pulse

 

[mirvin88]

 

[Memnon]

All that matters to me is CB play...

If Al Jr & Ivey shutdown their sides of the field & keep their man contained the rest will take care of itself.

 

[caneholic88]

Just some semblance of an explosive offense, I can’t take another year on O like the last few years. Going multiple quarters in a game without a first down has almost ended my being..

 

[Bigbenchcane]

60 plus points on O

 

[MizCane]

I want to see the chains move on O and yards easy to come by. Too many times this past decade it seemed like it was so ******* hard to just move the ball and the window was so slim it almost had to be a perfect pass or great catch etc. I want to see a schemed O where their Defense is on their heals trying to figure out whats coming next.

On D, I just want to see our interior disrupt any run game. I think our guy will be flying to the ball because that is how Diaz coaches it.

 

[Groz73Cane]

On O
- Scheme that doesn't allow King to get murdered by OL play
- Quick release strikes to WRs in space
- Push from OL to give RBs something to work with
- Sustained drives with multiple 1st downs
- FG scoring consistency
- King's accuracy
- WR's catching
- King showing some scrambling (but not just for doing it sake)

On D
- DL that bullies UAB OL and backfield
- LBs stopping run
- DBs who don't give up 4th and 17 regardless of what Blake calls

P.S. NO MFING DANCING ON THE SIDELINES, except the cheerleaders.

 

[vivijane]

2 Things

1- a team that is MOTIVATED and READY to play......

2- a TOUGH----- PHYSICAL---- FAST football team.............

 

[swampcougar1]

A convincing complete team effort win

 

[TrumpyCane]

Domination

 

[pcitycane]

Looking for King to rush for 160 and pass for 3 TDs before he sits down in the third quarter to take the rest of the game off.
