  415. Florida State, Miami, and Central Florida all contributed
  416. significant points to the Florida blowout, which wasn’t surprising to anyone
  417. following the Spaz campaign bus.&lt;/div&gt;
  418. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;

  422. Virginia was lost to VT solely, as Spaz’ teams defeated UVA
  423. several times during his tenure.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Showing
  424. consistency can be both good and bad, Spaz has not lost to the Cavaliers, nor
  425. beaten the Hokies.&lt;/div&gt;

  432. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  433. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  434. South Carolina was handled easily by Clemson whose one loss has
  435. been avenged multiple times over.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  436. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  437. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  438. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  439. Georgia, Illinois, California, and Nevada all owe their
  440. states to the only team from their state that played BC, so Georgia Tech,
  441. Northwestern, USC, and Nevada, respectively. &lt;/div&gt;
  442. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;

  445. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;
  446. North Carolina was the most contested state with Spaz
  447. winning 50% of the 10 matchups from NC schools Duke, North Carolina, NC State,
  448. and Wake Forest.&lt;/div&gt;
  449. &lt;/div&gt;

  451. fellow blogger Eagle in Atlanta (which as an Eagle also in Atlanta, I&#39;m
  452. often asked if I am in addition to being &quot;BCMike&quot;, but I suppose that&#39;s
  453. neither here nor there) on his website.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  454. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  455. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;First, let&#39;s
  456. address the fact that Mark Blaudschun is now writing utilizing the same
  457. medium we at BCDraft, BCI, Soaring to Glory, Eagle in Atlanta, and every
  458. other BC blog uses.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  459. &lt;br /&gt;
  460. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Also note that from this group of
  461. BC bloggers only Blaudschun was fired from the Globe because he was a
  462. shitty hack of a lazy writer who even the GLOBE of all places thought
  463. was underperforming.&amp;nbsp; This is the same paper that gives equal time and
  464. space to UConn rugby as it did to BC football when we were in the
  465. national championship hunt a couple years ago.&amp;nbsp; If the GLOBE, &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;THE
  466. FUCKING GLOBE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; thought you did a horrible job covering BC sports, that&#39;s
  467. really saying something.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  468. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  469. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I digress.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  470. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  471. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Listen,
  472. Blaudy is entitled to his opinion.&amp;nbsp; He can defend Spaz until his last
  473. day on campus and likely will long after he&#39;s gone.&amp;nbsp; But going after an
  474. alum?&amp;nbsp; A blogger? Someone who actually writes for free (or darn close to
  475. it, I know these ads don&#39;t pay a whole lot) to support the school and
  476. helps stroke the most infinitesimally small competitive flames that are
  477. left in this fanbase?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  478. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  479. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Eagle in Atlanta needs to get a clue?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  480. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  481. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;No,
  482. Blauds.&amp;nbsp; YOU need to get a clue.&amp;nbsp; While you were paid at the Globe and
  483. periodically rolled out of bed and logged on to Eagle Action or Eagle
  484. Outsider to get your article for the month, you were a public figure
  485. PAID to cover BC sports.&amp;nbsp; You were fair game.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  486. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  487. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Spaz is
  488. getting paid handsomely for what he&#39;s doing.&amp;nbsp; I have to imagine that on a
  489. per-win basis, he&#39;s out-earning Saban and the Ol&#39; Ball Coach at this
  490. point.&amp;nbsp; He&#39;s a public figure and PAID to coach football and occasionally
  491. win games.&amp;nbsp; He&#39;s fair game.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  492. &lt;br /&gt;
  493. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;You went out of your way to
  494. not only attack Eagle in Atlanta, but in what can only be interpreted
  495. as a pathetic attempt of using whatever little clout you mistakenly
  496. believe you have, embarrass or humble a blogger and calling him out a
  497. publishing his name without his permission.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  498. &lt;br /&gt;
  499. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;You want to
  500. talk about guys who don&#39;t get it?&amp;nbsp; You want to try to make me understand
  501. that because you think a guy really likes a place that&#39;s afforded him
  502. millions of dollars and given him the only head coaching job of his
  503. career that we should like him and want him to stay as our Head Football Coach?&amp;nbsp; I have no problems believing Spaz loves BC. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  504. &lt;br /&gt;
  505. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Frankly (pun
  506. intended), I don&#39;t give a shit. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  507. &lt;br /&gt;
  508. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I love Olivia Wilde, but
  509. does that qualify me for being her beau?&amp;nbsp; Affection or appreciation
  510. isn&#39;t a qualification for anything.&amp;nbsp; It&#39;s a nice addition but it&#39;s not
  511. the meat.&amp;nbsp; The meat here is simple: CAN YOU COACH?&amp;nbsp; CAN YOU RECRUIT?&amp;nbsp;
  512. CAN YOU DEVELOP TALENT?&amp;nbsp; If our next coach can do those three things and
  513. openly hates Boston College, I&#39;m fine with it. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  514. &lt;br /&gt;
  515. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I&#39;m sure
  516. you think you&#39;re being a loyal friend of Spaz and trying to show the
  517. rest of us who (occasionally) cover BC sports that this is how it&#39;s
  518. done.&amp;nbsp; You&#39;re trying to one-up one of the leading bloggers and show
  519. everyone just who the new boss is in town.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  520. &lt;br /&gt;
  521. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We&#39;ve got news for you.&amp;nbsp; You&#39;re not one of us.&amp;nbsp; You&#39;ll never be one of us. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  522. &lt;br /&gt;
  523. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;...and when you take a shot at one of us, you take a shot at all of us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  524. &lt;br /&gt;
  525. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eat a bag of dicks,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  526. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  527. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

We know they excel in a couple areas that seem to give the Eagles fits (the dink and dunk) (mobile QB)(hurry up offense) this will be a matchup of preparation, and in our eyes a tell in how good 2012 is going to be for this football team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1W) Adjust to the hurry up offense&lt;br /&gt;As we found out last year, the hurry up offense seemed to have our Eagles huffing and puffing on the sidelines, that could be because it was the first game of the season, because of injuries in camp, or a plethora of other items. This year I think our fans are prepared to see it, our offense runs a style closer to this, so you’d think our D is a bit more prepared but the result is yet to be seen or just hours away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2M) Contain Cain Colter&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fewer losses were more irritating to watch than last year&#39;s Northwestern game.  Their supposed Heisman QB was out and this nobody Colter was in.   He short passed and QB sneaked us to death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We must make sure Colter does not beat us with his feet and is forced to throw downfield, not just quick screens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3W) Rettig over 300 yards again&lt;br /&gt;Rettig is coming off back to back Over 300 games. And is actually #7 in the nation for Passing Yards. I’d like to see that it isn’t a fluke or a matter of defenses played against.&lt;br /&gt;Northwestern doesn’t necessarily have a phenomenal defense, and actually is known for a less than average Secondary, so even another performance over 300 won’t be the perfect litmus test, but more so it will be a true confidence builder, something he needs after the past couple of seasons he has had.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4M) Possession offense, give D a chance to rest and get off the field&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spaz made a point last year of saying how out of shape and winded the D was. Well, part of that was on the offense for not holding on to the ball a whole lot and giving the D a chance to recharge between sets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can be as well conditioned as possible but if our D is out there 75% of the game trying to keep up pace with a no huddle offense, we&#39;re going to be challenged to make it close--let alone win.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5W)0 Fumbles&lt;br /&gt;Fumbles have been very rough for the Eagles, lets see if we can go a full game with 0, we are going to need it. Really nothing else to say here, move along.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6M) Amidon stretching the field&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Northwestern secondary has been beaten up by Syracuse and currently ranks 113th in yards per game given up.  To really open things up we need to stretch the field early with Amidon and make them respect the deep routes so Coleman and Spiffy can get open.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7W) DL- Abdesmad Sacks&lt;br /&gt;I actually put this focus before I knew that he was going to be the starter. I liked Abdesmad last year, I like the combo of him and Edebali on the Ends. Abdesmad has great pressure from the side, seems to get to the QB fairly quick and plays with a great motor. We just need the rest of the line to have a great game. They have been fair, but here is their time to shine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8M) jump the short pass&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you remember last year, the majority of Colter&#39;s passes were short ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, ask yourself this: in our losses, where are the passes going from the QB&#39;s?   Almost exclusively the teams that have beaten us have used short almost lateral passes, taking advantage of our patented BC DB cushion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This worked great when teams passed the ball down the field but today&#39;s offenses use plenty of spread and quick hits getting the ball out in the flat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let&#39;s selectively gamble and start to attack some of those quick hitters and maybe get a pick-6 a-la DeJuan Tribble vs. FSU.  If nothing else it will dissuade Colter from slowly killing us with the short passes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9W) Time of Possession&lt;br /&gt;I unfortunately think this game will come down to time of possession. We will need to own this , by a dramatic amount to be the winner at the end of the day. Neither team is really known for their quick scores, they are known for their methodical attack down the field. If we can own the possession arrow, I think our Eagles come home with a W.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10M) CJ Jones mid-season form&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Welcome back, CJ!  Jones returns to the lineup after injury and takes back his corner position. Jones isn&#39;t having the luxury of warming up vs. Maine or playing against Miami, so it&#39;s important for CJ to come out playing in mid-season form.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/feeds/1877266609007949689/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2012/09/keys-to-game-northwestern.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/1877266609007949689'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/1877266609007949689'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2012/09/keys-to-game-northwestern.html' title='Keys to the Game @ Northwestern'/><author><name>BCMike</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04259278849389650910</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-yQzMUXycV6-QlRyy8MV16yXaja07jms8sbafVvNwchLey59XMiQAG3NvB2nASjsXt5O4Xsz7CS884XZH_iSi77RAwyzPvWA1NxiIICqaqlepjVr7jtB9W5PB34veUcA/s1600-r/n682494226_932283_5319.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693132595760033104.post-7649519029481611882</id><published>2012-09-12T21:02:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2012-09-12T21:02:07.154-04:00</updated><title type='text'>9/11/12:  Best of the Best</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;WordSection1&quot;&gt;

  534. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Well we are thrilled to do a best of the best. A W matters, and its a starting block and hopefully something to build on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  535. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  536. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  537. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  538. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;1M) Spiffy return TD&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  539. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  540. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  541. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  542. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;It sure seemed like a longer time ago, but it was Ritchie Gunns who last returned a punt for the Eagles in 2009.&amp;nbsp; Spiffy had been questioned by some fans—and frankly everyone since pre-concussion Jet Smith has been—and Spiffy shut them   up with this terrific runback. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  543. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  544. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  545. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  546. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;As the commentators noted both on TV and radio, he did what you ask of your return guy: make the first guy miss.&amp;nbsp; The booming punt did out-kick the coverage (see: BCMike’s wife) giving Spiffy some time to get a head of steam going into   the oncoming masses but he did so fearlessly and cut through the Maniacs like a hot knife through buttah.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  547. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  548. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  549. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  550. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;2W) Coleman TD&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  551. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  552. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;So I am a Coleman fan, sue me .. but the smile on his face, how excited he was- that’s what football is all about.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  553. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  554. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Coleman did a great job of showing how he can out leap a competitor in the corner of the endzone.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  555. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  556. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  557. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  558. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;3M) Defense doing better&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  559. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  560. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  561. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  562. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;The D gave up some big plays vs. Miami (unlike Kansas State) but rebounded back to only give up three to the Black Bears.&amp;nbsp; It would have been nice to have kept up the shut-out streak going to over 100 years, but 3 points since 1915 is   still pretty good.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  563. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  564. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  565. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  566. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;There was a chance early in the game that we did let a Maine WR get behind the coverage but thankfully our DL put enough pressure on the QB to force the throw a little long.&amp;nbsp; If he connected, it would have been a big play but thankfully   we didn’t afford them a second opportunity at another big play.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  567. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  568. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  569. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  570. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;4W) LB second team&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  571. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  572. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;You know Keeks is gone. And our LB corp is strong. But I was very impressed with the strength of our second team.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  573. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  574. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;You don’t always get to see the second team. But Joy, Duggan and Daniels are going to be strong for a VERY long time and something to get excited about.&lt;u&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  575. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  576. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  577. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  578. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;5M) Mihalik&#39;s play&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  579. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  580. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  581. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  582. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;We as fans kept on asking for someone on the DL to step up.&amp;nbsp; We have been fortunate to have many star defenders come through The Heights but no real dominant ones since Kiwi and Raji.&amp;nbsp;  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  583. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  584. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  585. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  586. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I know it’s early, but I think Mihalik could be that next star.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  587. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  588. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  589. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  590. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Only a true sophomore, Mihalik was all over the field tossing Black Bear defenders aside and wreaking havoc including a TFL and a pass batted down.&amp;nbsp; He had a great drive on Saturday I hope to see the rest of the season.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  591. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  592. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  593. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  594. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  595. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  596. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;6W)Getting a W&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  597. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  598. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;sometimes that alone can change your whole day, even if it is against Maine&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  599. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  600. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  601. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  602. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  603. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  604. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;7W) at least having Meter. (espn3 fail)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  605. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  606. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  607. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  608. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;While some may have scoffed at my 10&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; pick for Keys to the Game, sure enough—ESPN3 wound up being an epic challenge.&amp;nbsp; I had been able to use my Dad’s Verizon log-in as a go-around for access to The Worldwide Leader’s interweb   feed, but for whatever reason that duck no longer flies.&amp;nbsp; I was going out of my mind being angry about not being able to watch the game, but then I remembered I could get EEI on the ‘net.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  609. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  610. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  611. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  612. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;So I threw up the Game Tracker on the big screen and streamed Meter and Co. calling the game.&amp;nbsp; I have to say I actually really enjoyed it, it was a while since I had listened to whole football game on the radio and the guys did a nice   job describing the game and giving insight.&amp;nbsp; In fact, I believe at one point the on-air team leaned on this website as they referred to somewhere that they read that Maine QB Wasilewski and Dave Shinskie played for the same high school.&amp;nbsp; A shout-out would   have been nice, but whatevs.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  613. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  614. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  615. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  616. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  617. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  618. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  619. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  620. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;8M) The deuce was somewhat loose&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  621. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  622. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I know Finch had a fumble but overall Deuce showed that he is back and has the strength and health to be back to his true form. I think Finch if he can stay healthy can be someone we really rely on.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  623. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  624. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  625. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  626. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  627. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  628. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;9M) We won&#39;t go winless&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  629. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  630. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  631. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  632. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Sometimes wins lose luster when the opponent you just beat goes out and gets thumped by other teams in succession after you’ve played them.&amp;nbsp; At the time, it looked like a great win but in retrospect that team is just pretty poor.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  633. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  634. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  635. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  636. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Unfortunately for BC fans, we have now had two consecutive years of “not a bad loss” turning into a “bad loss”.&amp;nbsp;  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  637. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  638. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  639. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  640. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;When we dropped an early game to Central Florida last year, some folks were even calling for the Golden Knights to be a dark horse BCS contender.&amp;nbsp; They certainly looked like a strong team shutting down our offense (admittedly not tough   to do, particularly last year), and I left Orlando thinking “Yeah, we lost—but I’m looking forward to seeing what this UCF team does—they’re going to surprise a lot of people!”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  641. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  642. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  643. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  644. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Well, they did.&amp;nbsp; Mainly UCF fans, as the Knights finished the season 5-7 including wins against hapless Memphis, Charleston Southern, and other season-opener type schools.&amp;nbsp;  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  645. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  646. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  647. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  648. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;If you haven’t connected the points yet, let me do it for you.&amp;nbsp; The Miami loss was a bad loss.&amp;nbsp; That Miami team is not good.&amp;nbsp; K-State threw up over 50 points and nearly 500 yards of offense—and held the Canes in check, to put it lightly.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  649. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  650. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  651. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  652. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;The good news here?&amp;nbsp; The best of the best?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  653. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  654. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  655. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  656. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;We’ve won a game.&amp;nbsp; We can’t possibly go winless this season now.  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  657. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  658. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  659. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  660. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  661. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  662. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;10W) Rettig confidence with 0 INT&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  663. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  664. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I think one of the biggest things right now is to keep Rettig’s confidence high. That’s something that you cannot understate. He has gotten roughed up multiple times in the past, but lately hes had the time   he needed, and when he does hes excelled. &amp;nbsp;His confidence has grown, and so has his decision making. I think Rettig continues to grow and we love how he looks  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  665. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  666. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  667. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  668. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  669. &lt;/div&gt;

  672. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I also will take credit for calling the Oregon State upset over Wisky--those Beavers bite a big name at home every other year it seems and this one was ripe.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

One of the issues against Miami was the amount of dropped passes. Even with a few key WR’s out, we really need to show that we are able to consistently catch the ball. Rettig needs the assistance, and drives need to be sustained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;4M) Boundary to cover in Ameer-ica!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hey, how often can I actually blend West Side Story and a cornerback?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you saw Ameer Richardson as the boundary cover corner this week vs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy9rYzc-C0AR_AFk5t7imm7cMQq4e-PPglmndng3gwvU59nvTkF8Ut2vMp6h8uPGh_M_chhJxza8vpIeMHN3-oaLGCsJF55TmzEs-izBW5DiJehNhCAQAJVZgtshq0CRphKJT7Oor0kYYT/s1600/Ameer+Richardson.jpg&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy9rYzc-C0AR_AFk5t7imm7cMQq4e-PPglmndng3gwvU59nvTkF8Ut2vMp6h8uPGh_M_chhJxza8vpIeMHN3-oaLGCsJF55TmzEs-izBW5DiJehNhCAQAJVZgtshq0CRphKJT7Oor0kYYT/s1600/Ameer+Richardson.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Maine, I’m betting many of you said “WHO?”.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not me.  I play EA Sports NCAA Football and was introduced to Ameer that way.  &lt;br /&gt;While our D in the game isn’t great, for whatever reason, this crazy guy Ameer with dreads was getting picks here, there, everywhere.  Frankly I thought it was a made up player because EA got lazy and didn’t know who was on our D.  But…as it turns out…here he is!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can tell you he stepped up in the game often and now that he has an opportunity to do so in real life, I think he will make the most of it….and frankly, I’m much more comfortable with having him play corner and Sylvia able to go all crash-test-dummy from the safety position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;5W) Try the noobs out&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to see what the future holds. I do not want to get a lot of pointless injuries.&lt;br /&gt;I also do not want to lose the game of course, and want to build the confidence as BCMike mentioned in pick 2, but this is our prime time to get some serious PT for the youngin’s on the team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;6M) D-Ends getting pressure on Marcus Wasilewski&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wasilewski is my best guess for the starting QB for Maine, as last year’s leader Warren Smith took with him his 3K yards and 22 touchdowns out the door with him as he graduated last year.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz_Fx3Q4-l0luTR_cJxOQKjNDv3mOhs_sHSCnh6TTWlQt1gE2oHgV1a5LhYq2CHj4_jEZ3cgynKF8IKEP7D0tZ_8TEdYrGnVggApkFX2vRoqTwA43vX_SVtsek3GnWeFf_qMpoXXEewX8C/s1600/Marcus+Wasilewski.jpg&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz_Fx3Q4-l0luTR_cJxOQKjNDv3mOhs_sHSCnh6TTWlQt1gE2oHgV1a5LhYq2CHj4_jEZ3cgynKF8IKEP7D0tZ_8TEdYrGnVggApkFX2vRoqTwA43vX_SVtsek3GnWeFf_qMpoXXEewX8C/s200/Marcus+Wasilewski.jpg&quot; width=&quot;133&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Wasilewski comes from the QB hotbed State of Pennsylvania where many of our best have come from, including current backup Dave Shinskie.  In fact, Shinskie and Wasilewski actually played for the same High School (Mt. Carmel, PA).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This will be Marcus’ first start, and he’ll have to throw his second career pass (plus) vs. Boston College.  We need to pressure him from the ends and make him rush his throws early.  Maine is NOT a bad team and as with any FBS underdog, the more time you leave them in the game with a chance to win the tougher they play.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to jump on Maine early and the easiest way to do that is to create turnovers by pressuring Wasilewski.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;7W) Seeing Steve Daniels&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjINyY3Dw-8FOKOPiMZH9FnBS4C3mGaVSQtWnaB8-8Qd_VVB6eTuO4kwmeUCabfdqNc_PxPOF6fbSAH4ytJxB-LGokj1JASdvZXarrNgJlk4YWMSDDWC81Vq5A9IvdBgo_9f36dVdJ81fn8/s1600/Steven+Daniels.jpg&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjINyY3Dw-8FOKOPiMZH9FnBS4C3mGaVSQtWnaB8-8Qd_VVB6eTuO4kwmeUCabfdqNc_PxPOF6fbSAH4ytJxB-LGokj1JASdvZXarrNgJlk4YWMSDDWC81Vq5A9IvdBgo_9f36dVdJ81fn8/s200/Steven+Daniels.jpg&quot; width=&quot;136&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;It feels like he was recruited years ago.. but he’s actually on the 2 deep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt; I am VERY excited to see him play.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think this is a player if he can stay on the field that he will be VERY good.

  1089. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Going up 14-0 early had me so excited I didn&#39;t know what
  1090. to do myself. I was smiling ear to ear and our table of four were high giving

  1111. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I disagree with you on the first draft pick BCMike. I
  1112. actually appreciate that we had some pop. Even though it fizzled out, we were
  1113. competitive. Frustrating, yes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1117. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Overall I think Kimble played a pretty good game, take
  1118. out a couple mistakes and I think he has a VERY bright future at the heights.

  1137. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Wesley please don&#39;t misconstrue my point. I like that we
  1138. scored points. I like that we &quot;competed&quot;.&amp;nbsp; I don&#39;t like thinking
  1139. that up 14-0 halfway through the first quarter we are about to make a statement
  1140. to the world and be the talk of the town--not that we are about to lose 41-18
  1141. from there on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1142. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1143. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1144. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1145. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;To that point, Chase&#39;s pick-6 was a back-breaker. We were
  1146. up 14-7 and trying to answer Miami&#39;s score.&amp;nbsp; Chase had all on all a good
  1147. if not great game but this pick-6 hurt bad. This was, to me, the turning point
  1148. in the ball game.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1149. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1158. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1159. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Haha now you are making me sound like TOB.. &quot; we are
  1160. up , aren&#39;t we&quot;&amp;nbsp; Sucks&amp;nbsp; lost, same result we had been getting,
  1161. but at least I didn&#39;t doze off.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1162. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1164. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1165. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;The Rettig Sneak , that failed was bad for a few reasons.
  1166. ( other &amp;nbsp;than the obvious it didn’t
  1167. count)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1168. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1172. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We had to use a challenge. The booth should have
  1173. done a review on this play and the play by spiffy prior&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1174. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in;&quot;&gt;

  1176. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;The O Line showed no push on this sneak&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1177. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in;&quot;&gt;

  1179. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I really think that Spiffy scored on the play
  1180. before&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1181. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in;&quot;&gt;

  1183. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I understand holding onto the ball tightly, but
  1184. you have to make sure it crosses the plane ( I am betting this gets some
  1185. practice this week)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1186. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1195. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1196. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;While Amidon had a fantastic day overall he and seemingly
  1197. every other receiver dropped some really easy catches. Now some of this is on
  1198. Chase who refuses to throw short passes lighter than Brie bullets, but they
  1199. were almost all really accurate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1200. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1203. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;If you&#39;re getting a scholarship to play football as a WR
  1204. and the ball hits both of your hands--you need to catch the ball.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1215. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1216. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We were actually able to stop them on offense, And we
  1217. wanted to give our offense a chance to really drive it down the field And
  1218. Williams fumbles it on our first action with the ball. Although a good guy was
  1219. able to fall on it. It totally took all the wind out of the sails and we went
  1220. instantly to the knee before half.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1221. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1222. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1227. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;7M) playing the DB cushion late&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
  1228. &lt;/div&gt;
  1229. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1230. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I understand wanting to give our d-backs the BC D cushion
  1231. early on but once Morris got in a rhythm and proved he had no problem
  1232. connecting in the short passes we really needed to play up close on repeated
  1233. third down attempted defensive stops.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1234. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1235. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1236. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1237. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I understand the philosophy and I get why we do it most
  1238. of the time--but late when trailing and needing a stop, you just any play off
  1239. ten yards on third and five. You simply can&#39;t.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1240. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1248. &lt;/div&gt;
  1249. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1250. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;You know it wasn’t that long ago when BC was known for
  1251. stopping the run. Actually we consistently were in the top 10 for doing so.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1252. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1253. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1254. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1255. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Last year I think
  1256. that Luke hid some of our warts, and we still weren&#39;t world beaters in the
  1257. area. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1258. &lt;/div&gt;
  1259. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1260. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;This year it looks like we may have another difficult time stopping it,
  1261. and Duke Johnson a well revered Freshman RB snapped ankles and made us look
  1262. very pop warner as he has runs over 50 yards twice!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1263. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1264. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1265. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1266. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We must get better at wrapping up, and being run
  1267. stopping, or it is &amp;nbsp;going to be a very
  1268. long year. But don’t let me take anything away from the Duke of run, he is a
  1269. very talented back, and expect to hear his name a good bit more in the future&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1270. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1277. Chase&#39;s big day goes unnoticed&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
  1278. &lt;/div&gt;
  1279. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1280. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Did you know that Chase put up the &lt;a href=&quot;http://espn.go.com/college-football/statistics/player/_/stat/passing&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;second most yards inthe country this past week?&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; That he had more yards Saturday than
  1281. Matt Ryan ever had in one game?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1282. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1283. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1284. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1285. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Think anyone else outside of the BC family knows?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1289. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;As Spaz will be able to tell you at the end of this
  1290. season (and no, aside from the D cushion I don&#39;t blame Spaz for this loss),
  1291. college football is about one thing: winning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1292. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1293. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1294. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1295. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Because we didn&#39;t win, Chase won&#39;t get the love he
  1296. deserves (&lt;a href=&quot;http://espn.go.com/college-football/statistics/player/_/stat/receiving&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Amidon in a similar boat&lt;/a&gt;). That sucks. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1305. &lt;/div&gt;
  1306. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1307. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Good point Mike, I&#39;d add KPL&#39;s 14 tackles - Well I didn’t
  1308. even notice that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1309. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1310. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1311. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1312. &lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I have to finish with run
  1313. blocking. Let me state that Pass blocking really couldn’t be any better. But
  1314. overall run blocking was very lacking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1315. &lt;/div&gt;
  1316. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1317. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Seems like holes were opened up opposite of where the RB
  1318. anticipated them, no huge push for the short yardage. It seemed as simple as
  1319. the DL was getting lower than our OL.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1320. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1321. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1373. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1374. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Well its Christmas in September, or something like that I feel like we have anxiously awaiting today and it is finally here!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1375. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1376. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We start off with very good in conference game against Miami.. We are drafting the keys to the game for BC to start off with a W!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1377. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1378. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1379. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1380. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;1M) Pressure Harris Morris&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1381. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1382. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1383. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1384. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;It&#39;s no secret the D-Line was decimated by graduations and injuries last year, forcing some younger Eagles to play ahead of schedule.&amp;nbsp; Some did admirable jobs such as Ricci and Wujciak but no one was dominant—that&#39;s putting it lightly.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1385. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1386. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We need Kaleb Ramsey to make a statement that he has the goods to be a day one NFL draft pick and dominate inside.&amp;nbsp; We need to get consistent pressure on the QB without blitzing our LB&#39;s.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; If we&#39;re able to force Morris out of the pocket   and make some rushed throws into our opportunistic pass D, we&#39;ll win this game.&amp;nbsp; I&#39;m calling it right now.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1387. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1388. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1389. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1390. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;If we rush four and Morris hangs back in the pocket all day, we&#39;re toast.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1391. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1392. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1393. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1394. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;2W) Keep Rettig Upright&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1395. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1396. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1397. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1398. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I really feel that as Rettig goes, the team will go. Last year we had a handful of areas we needed to improve on to give Rettig the foundation he needed to be able to succeed.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1399. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1400. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Well that time is really over. This is Rettig&#39;s time, his team and everything looks like it can be in sync, but we have to be able to demonstrate that we can stretch the field.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1401. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1402. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Keeping Rettig upright will be key to give him time to get comfortable in the pocket and make some good passes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1403. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1404. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1405. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1406. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;3M) Bobby Swigert&#39;s replacement stepping up&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1407. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1408. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1409. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1410. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Here at BCDraft we are BIG Bobby Swagger fans.&amp;nbsp; Kid is under-rated and underappreciated in the ACC and perhaps by our own fans.&amp;nbsp; The kid is just a terrific receiver and a great slot one at that—and those are the hardest to find.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1411. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1412. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1413. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1414. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Therein lies our next key—whomever steps in as the third WR must take over that slot WR role and flash open to Rettig early and often.&amp;nbsp; He has to be able to take the big hit after catching the ball while running fearlessly through Linebacker   Lane.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1415. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1416. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1417. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1418. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We&#39;ve seen different people listed on the depth chart as possible replacements (I think it will be Spiffy Evans), but we&#39;ll only really know once they line up.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1419. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1420. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1421. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1422. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;4W) Pantale replacement&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1423. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1424. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1425. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1426. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;BCMike I hate to follow you with a similar post, but I actually think this one is a bit more important. Pantale became a key to success during the last game against Miami, and was poised for a great year.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1427. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1428. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Rettig will need a bail out option at times ( and the TE is the logical person for this) but without Pantale, it looks like we will be changing our scheme a bit. Putting in Parsons and younger OL will make this position seem like just   another lineman, or a strickly blocking TE, which reduces the amount of threats we have, and in my mind translates into playing safe.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1429. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1430. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1431. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1432. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;5M) Sylvia lining up at CB&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1433. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1434. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1435. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1436. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Dang!&amp;nbsp; You completely stole mine here.&amp;nbsp; More specifically I believe they need to go to Parsons early just to prove that they&#39;re willing to use him as more than a blocking end and force the LB&#39;s to honor the spot.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1437. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1438. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;My biggest worry on D is Sylvia at CB.&amp;nbsp; He was tremendously fun to watch as a DB last year playing in the free safety position as he was overly aggressive and threw his body about with reckless abandon.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1439. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1440. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1441. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1442. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Now while this was fun to watch, often times it seemed as if he would rather the WR, TE, or RB be able to catch the ball just so he could punish them with the people&#39;s elbow and drop the hammer on them.&amp;nbsp; Again, while entertaining, it   wasn&#39;t always smart or effective.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1443. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1444. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;So…we&#39;re going to play him at corner now?&amp;nbsp; I don&#39;t know if this is just the ol&#39; cat and mouse game with Spaz if he&#39;s going to be able to use CJ Jones or another corner, but with Sylvia at CB we&#39;re going to need him to play really close   coverage and not wait for the receiver to catch it first.&amp;nbsp; That is asking his guy to step up a ton to play this position.&amp;nbsp; If he&#39;s able to, that&#39;s a big win for our D.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1445. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1446. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1447. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1448. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;6W) BC Fanhood&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1449. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1450. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1451. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1452. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;BCMike- Agreed, Sylvia can lay the lumber at times, but I do find him out of position a decent bit. Maybe that has changed, maybe he has proven himself in camp. I truly do not know, and hope for nothing but the best obviously tomorrow.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1453. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1454. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1455. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1456. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;My choice is going to be BC Fanhood. And let me explain this for a quick minute. BC fans now have a ton of excuses not to be hyped . Losing Gene ( although that may actually hype up some) A coach that is viewed as a lame duck. Not ranked   preseason, it&#39;s a holiday weekend. There are storms in the south, El Nino, Global warming, Flutie moving to Florida. The list goes on and on and on.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1457. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1458. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1459. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1460. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;BUT! We are freaking playing Miami the first game of the season. With a new offensive coordinator, good times with good friends watching a great game. I really hope our fans can be there to the players for the hard work that has been   put in for months and even years- they deserve it!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1461. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1462. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1463. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1464. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;7M) Rettig getting over that INT&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1465. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1466. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1467. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1468. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Once again I agree with you and ATL Eagle (
  1469. &lt;a href=&quot;http://atleagle.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;http://atleagle.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;), the fan base is so tired of being morose and if GDF leaving is a sign of anything, it&#39;s that this team has to win now or there will be change immeaditely.&amp;nbsp; As a fan, I&#39;m encouraged either   way to be frank.&amp;nbsp; Get it?&amp;nbsp; To be FRANK?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1470. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1471. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1472. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1473. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Anywho, I&#39;m going with Rettig not letting incompletions or the likely INT&#39;s get to him.&amp;nbsp; I&#39;m not saying that he&#39;s an innacurate QB or unable to understand the offense or anything like that—but this new Doug Martin offense is about quick   routes, quick cuts, and letting the ball go early; often times well before the WR has made their break.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1474. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1475. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;It&#39;s likely that Rettig and the WR&#39;s will make a mistake or two…but we can&#39;t be timid or not trust the system.&amp;nbsp; If we mess up, we have to forget about it and push forward.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1476. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1477. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1478. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1479. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;8W) Ramsey&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1480. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1481. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1482. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1483. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;With the young secondary, a hard push on the line is going to be critical. The success of that line should be based on the full line, but in particular Ramsey. He is our beast, when he is healthy. We need him to 1) Stay healthy and 2)   lead the charge.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1484. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;

  1491. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;For years BC fans were spoiled by future NFL caliber QB&#39;s...now the same can be said about punters with Johnny Ayers and Ryan Quigley.&amp;nbsp; Quigs was one of the consistent right spots last year and punted us out of trouble more times than   I can count.&amp;nbsp; We need Levano to be the next great BC punter and help us win the field position battle.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1501. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;BCMike, I think you got away with a steal in the 9th round, I think Levano will be huge in this game no doubt, but on the plus side he has looked very good in camp.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1502. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot;&gt;
  1503. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Without question we have had a lot of very good &amp;nbsp;punters in past years and have become somewhat spoiled&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1507. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;You know when you have a running game which is RB &amp;nbsp;by committee, one of them has to step up. You play the hot hand. &amp;nbsp;Andre has been kept out of a few of the last practices and scrimmages because the coaches   feel like he is the healthiest, and has the least to prove.. We keep hearing about his performance against Syracuse two years ago, and want to see a redux of that.. We need another showcase like that, and I think vs Miami at home as a season opener is the   perfect stage!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1864. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1865. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;You know sometimes I am on the fence about how to start
  1866. the season. Sometimes I think that BC starts a bit slow and needs that extra
  1867. week or two to recover from camp, to work out the kinks, to really get the
  1868. scheme of the new offensive coordinator down.. But strangely, not this year
  1869. even all of those excuses apply.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1870. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1871. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1872. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1873. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;This year I want to rip the band-aid off. I
  1874. want to know EXACTLY how good our team is from week one. I want the light
  1875. shining hard on BC, and we will either sink or swim VERY quickly.&amp;nbsp; As
  1876. painful as it is to hear, as the first game goes, so will the rest of our
  1877. season, in 2012 this couldn’t be more true.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1878. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1879. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1880. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1881. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1882. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1883. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1885. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;2BCMike) 11/10 Notre Dame @ Home&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1886. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1887. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1888. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1889. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;The nice thing about rivalries is that you can always
  1890. through the records out.&amp;nbsp; On paper ND is a good team this year and is a
  1891. dark horse (don’t laugh) to make a BCS game or even the MNC Game….but does that
  1892. matter to BC?&amp;nbsp; Absolutely not.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1893. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1894. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1895. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1896. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;While we thoroughly enjoyed owning the Irish Pre-Spaz
  1897. reeling off five straight and six out of seven; it’s been the Golden Domers who
  1898. have dominated our Eagles the past three (four?) seasons.&amp;nbsp; I don’t know if
  1899. Spaz has enough in him to charge up the troops but hopefully with the influx of
  1900. former player coaches like Richie Gunns and Al “Mount” Washington they’ll inject some fire into the game and our boys will come out with a W.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1901. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1902. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1903. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1904. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I don’t have too terribly high hopes for the season and a
  1905. win here would be really fantastic and help alleviate some of the pain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1906. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1907. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1908. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1909. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1910. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1911. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1912. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1913. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;3W) 9/15 @ Northwestern&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1914. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1915. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1916. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1917. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;You know I am being selfish on this pick. I went to the
  1918. Northwestern game last year at home. And I truly believe we should have won
  1919. that one.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1920. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1921. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1922. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1923. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;There was no reason to not win last year, at all. And the
  1924. last thing I want to hear about is how a Big 10 school beat us at home.. So I
  1925. am giving this another chance. I am going to be in Chicago, and I fully expect
  1926. us to beat Northwestern at their house!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1927. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1928. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1931. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1932. &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;4M) 10/13 @ Florida State&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1933. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

  1935. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1936. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Oh, the Pre Season Champs.&amp;nbsp; Yes, they’re supposed to
  1937. be great this year.&amp;nbsp; Just like last year.&amp;nbsp; And the year before
  1938. that.&amp;nbsp; And that.&amp;nbsp; And that.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1939. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1940. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1941. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1942. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Listen—I’m not saying for a split
  1943. second there isn’t talent at Florida State.&amp;nbsp; That doesn’t mean it comes
  1944. together well.&amp;nbsp; You can dump massive quantities of craft beer and mix it
  1945. with delicious spicy queso and you’re left with a hot disgusting mess.&amp;nbsp;
  1946. Good ingredients don’t always mean great finished product.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1947. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1948. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1949. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1950. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;That being said, BC just always plays well in these types
  1951. of games.&amp;nbsp; No one will give us a shot, FSU won’t really prepare for us,
  1952. and our kids will have grown tired of the media attention directed at the
  1953. Seminoles.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; If I had to guess/bet on one big upset we pull this
  1954. year, this is it.&amp;nbsp; I’m looking forward to this game and sincerely have a
  1955. strangely high level of confidence, albeit mainly unfounded.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1956. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1957. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1958. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1959. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1960. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1961. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;5W) 10/20 @ Georgia Tech&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1962. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1963. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1964. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1965. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;BCMike, I may be engaged but I can think of a few reasons
  1966. that the FSU game would be a great time , well outside of them being the
  1967. perennial pre season champs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1968. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1969. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1970. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1971. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;No no but seriously this is their year, just wait and
  1972. see.. I&#39;ve just heard that line too many times. Although I will enjoy all the
  1973. press for the game, that BC always struggles to get.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1974. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1975. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1976. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1977. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;On my selection I am going back to a game that I PLAN on
  1978. being in attendance for. In Atlanta, and the Alumni group better do it right!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1979. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1980. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1981. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1982. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;So Wesley , being the eternal optimist will be thinking
  1983. of nothing else other than the 2007 matchup when Matt Ryan really started to
  1984. show what he was capable of. It was the end zone pass to Brandon Robinson that
  1985. made me an officially a believer. This year GT will be favored, but I always
  1986. like how we matchup against them, and expect this to be a VERY fun game&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1987. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1988. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1989. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1990. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1991. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1992. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1993. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1994. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1995. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1996. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;6M) 9/8 Maine @ home&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1997. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  1998. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1999. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2000. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Damn, how did I let you take this one from me?&amp;nbsp; The
  2001. only thing I like better than a BC game is one I don’t have to travel
  2002. for.&amp;nbsp; Our Eagles don’t visit Atlanta all that often so it’s&amp;nbsp; a real
  2003. treat when they do.&amp;nbsp; We’ll definitely turn it up and have a great time.&amp;nbsp;
  2004. &amp;nbsp;A reminder to any readers who want to share a pint with us, both Wesley
  2005. and I will be at this one.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2006. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2007. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2008. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2009. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Okay I’m taking Maine here because IT WILL BE A
  2010. WIN.&amp;nbsp; As a fanatic I want us to win every game and will watch and cheer my
  2011. brains out hoping we’ll come out victorious in each match-up we have, but
  2012. frankly I think we might be in for a tough year.&amp;nbsp; This game will be a
  2013. win.&amp;nbsp; Spaz can’t lose this if he tried.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our guys will all get to
  2014. play and other kids who have busted their butts in practice will get a chance
  2015. to hit the field and get significant PT. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2016. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

  2020. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2021. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;7W) 11/24 @ NC STATE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2022. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2023. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;There is just something about beating TOB that I take
  2024. great pleasure in. And I plan on being in attendance for this one as well&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2025. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

  2029. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2030. &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;8M) 9/29&amp;nbsp; Clemson @ home&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  2034. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Oh Ginger.&amp;nbsp; It never gets old playing TOB.&amp;nbsp; I
  2035. do have to say one of our favorite drafts ever were the &lt;a href=&quot;http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2009/09/98-draft-besttom-obrien-emotion.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;range of emotions fromTOB &lt;/a&gt;(link).&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  2038. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2039. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I know NC State is expecting big things this year but they’ve
  2040. yet to have their “oh no we have ______ injured, we would have been ACC Champs
  2041. otherwise” injury update from LNH, but don’t worry—it will happen.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2042. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

  2045. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I have Clemson up next because&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  2049. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;A) Clemson is just a fun
  2050. team to watch play, and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2051. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2052. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;B) Will bring some excitement to The Heights.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2053. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2054. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2055. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2056. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;We’ll be a huge underdog in this game but as a fairly new rivalry, there’s
  2057. always the chance we bite these guys when they’re not ready and not looking for
  2058. it.&amp;nbsp; They’re still a fairly young team lead by a fairly young coach and
  2059. it’s possible we can take this one by surprise by a team that’s likely spent
  2060. after playing Florida State the week prior and possibly looking forward to a
  2061. game against (likely) ranked GT the week after us. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2062. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

  2069. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;BCMike, you know you are letting me get a steal with my
  2070. last pick. This game I WISH I was going to be able to be at.. I may actually be
  2071. able to make it happen but it will be a stretch I have repeatedly heard the
  2072. story about taking the boat up the river and docking right at the game, and
  2073. just the overwhelming good time it is.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2074. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2075. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;The time of year, the pride in a service academy etc, just
  2076. makes this an awesome event.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2077. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoPlainText&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

  2088. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Yeah I definitely would love to catch a game at Michie

  2093. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Here I’m going with—you called it—Virginia Tech.&amp;nbsp; My
  2094. wife as we all know by now is a Hokie and that gives this game an extra sense
  2095. of importance in the BCMike household. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Depending on where we are ranked
  2096. (hey, don’t laugh…it’s possible!) this could be a great contest.&amp;nbsp; We do
  2097. get them at home late in the season so hopefully our new OC has things humming
  2098. and our guys are throwing up points.&amp;nbsp; Would be a great game to win.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  2128. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCDraft: First of all, thank you very much for taking the time to talk to BCMike and I of BCDraft.com, we greatly appreciate it!
  2129.  
  2130. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;background-color: #cc0000; color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;background-color: #cc0000; color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: #cc0000; color: yellow;&quot;&gt;You were recently named the Assistant DL and ST coach at BC, can you tell us how all of the staff is working together, and a day in the life for you in this new role. Also, how is our DL looking?
  2131.  
  2132. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Al Washington: Under the leadership of Coach Spaz, as a staff we are all focused on putting together a season that reflects the rich tradition we have here of being tough, disciplined, competitive and relentless on the field.  That is the BC way I know and believe it to be, if we can do that our record will take care of itself.   As a former student athlete here at Boston College I find it both exciting and humbling to return as a coach, I am eager to roll up my sleeves and get to it, this fall.  As a defensive line we are young and talented looking forward to re-establishing a reputation of dominance in this conference. The boys have maximized their opportunities this off-season and are taking the first steps as we look forward to having a strong preseason camp.  
  2133.  
  2134. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: You have had a lot of success on the recruiting trail, what do you think is an important message to share with recruits when talking about BC?
  2135.  
  2136. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: The message conveyed to the young men is simple.  We educate them of the rich tradition here at BC as well as the multiple opportunities that will be presented to them as student athletes, both on the field and off.  I truly believe that Boston College offers the total package.  As a native of Ohio I can tell you that choosing Boston College was one of the best decisions I have ever made in terms of my development as a player, professional and person. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: The Original 92 Dream Team plays the current USA Basketball team, who wins, and why?
  2137. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: 92, too much character and mental toughness, period.
  2138.  
  2139. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: How has College Football changed since you played?
  2140. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: Since 06’, a lot more uniform options per team I guess…man, how old do you guys think I am? Haha!  
  2141.  
  2142. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: The new field looks great, for those that aren&#39;t there at BC, can you tell us a bit about the improvements?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: BC is taking the appropriate steps in creating a high caliber environment.  I personally love it and feel the fans will too.
  2143.  
  2144. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: Most BC diehards remember you as a dominating DT that came to Kiwi&#39;s aid when Brad Butler took a cheap shot at Mathias&#39; injured knee. Can you take us back to that day and walk us through what you saw, thought, and did?
  2145.  
  2146. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: Honestly I didn’t do too much thinking that particular moment, haha.  That’s just how it was, that was&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCP8NNUsZQTBkNG7YskUv6MrJwneFOmLAX4ckQRsAUpZJFPRSQ8C3E1hAN5cOYVUAVYtdRzwZlD3UlYUGTsa5sp5ljtRbrfyHf8f1IbPA-6JJm0aqQlLjQ_YILWKLe6dvHjZFQiYJlQpSE/s1600/butler+cheap+shot.jpg&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;153&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCP8NNUsZQTBkNG7YskUv6MrJwneFOmLAX4ckQRsAUpZJFPRSQ8C3E1hAN5cOYVUAVYtdRzwZlD3UlYUGTsa5sp5ljtRbrfyHf8f1IbPA-6JJm0aqQlLjQ_YILWKLe6dvHjZFQiYJlQpSE/s200/butler+cheap+shot.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt; the culture we practiced in everyday, it was a tough mindset.  We supported each other and were not going to be pushed around.  I never had any ill feelings towards Brad Butler, I wasn’t trying to be a hero.  It was our first year in the ACC and we just refused to allow any team to think that they could push us around.
  2147.  
  2148. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: It seems to those of us immersed in Social Media that you are the first coach/recruiting coach who gets excited about recruiting and the kids you are talking to. How important do you believe it to be in this new era of communications for BC to be involved in multiple social mediums? What is your strategy when it comes to communicating on these different platforms?
  2149.  
  2150. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: I believe it is incredibly important to be involved with the young men and today that is the arena to facilitate this involvement most of the time.  I believe the best schools in the country have a presence in social media and I know  as time goes more and more programs will have to as well in order to stay ahead of the curve.   My approach is to highlight everything positive about the city of Boston, the education department, the facilities, the prestige, hell I even focus on how fresh the air is here, haha . But the majority of what I focus on is the great potential BC holds for a young man’s future both on and off the field.  I think that there is a lot to be excited about here.
  2151.  
  2152. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: WAWG....tell me about &quot;We all we got&quot;. Where did that come from, and what does it mean to you?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;AW: &quot;We all we got” represents the belief that no one is capable of supporting us like the way that we  can support each other.  I got it from a movie a long time ago and it’s how I live my life.  Whether someone believes you can or can’t reach your goal is not important.  What matters is what we believe.  In life when you make mistakes or come up short, people tend to count you out prematurely.  Last season’s record does not define this season of BC football or the direction we are headed.  That saying represents a movement, if you will, of us going in the right direction, but first it starts with us.
  2153.  
  2154. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: What players should we look out for on the DL this year that we don&#39;t already really know about and expect a lot from...who are some &quot;sleepers&quot; who might surprise the casual fan?
  2155.  
  2156. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: This group is so competitive I couldn’t point out just a few.  This camp is wide open and the fans will have a lot to look forward to this Fall.
  2157. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: As fans, we were very excited to see you and Richie Gunns (Rich Gunnell) brought back to the BC family. Is there a push to bring more BC stars and more BC family members back into the fold?
  2158.  
  2159. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AW: I think so.  I know that I was excited to join and to see Rich back as well.  We are a family here at BC and time will never change that.
  2160. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;BCD: Last but not least, even the craziest of the crazy BC fans left last season feeling a bit heartbroken at how far the program has fallen. It seemed like only a handful of years ago we were ranked #2 , playing for conference championships and on off years winning another bowl game. Now that we have suffered our first losing season since &#39;98 and haven&#39;t won a bowl game since Matt Ryan beat Michigan State in 2007, what words of encouragement can you give the masses? What, realistically, should BC fans expect out of this team? What sort of realistic goals is this team capable of achieving?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2161. &lt;div style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2162. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2163. &lt;div style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;
  2164. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;AW: What I would tell the fans to focus on is to remember how we finished the year last season.  The kids made their mind up and decided that they want to WIN and proved this off season that they are willing to work for it.  What they should expect is a tough, disciplined, competitive and relentless team on the field.  The Sky is the limit.  Right now we have to focus on having a great first snap on Saturday.  After we are able to do that then we need to focus on play 2, then 3 and so on.  Do that enough times and I believe good things will happen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2165. &lt;div style=&quot;color: yellow; font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;

One of Gene’s favorite quotes was to say “things are never as good as they seem, and things are never as bad as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPDgw8pVQsyFyYvCqmYiBhKFDLMcM9TszJvUPHJ3TdeKmgZkCvqHBv9nKIE1bfS2fy3Md7CBicwDvEZhclS1PxXx6u_9uqGdYfR7sbTs2fONyM9wEuW5A7AeUggJqUlRuE0IB4Qu_AT-_d/s1600/Gene+go+bye+bye.jpg&quot;

width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;they seem”.&amp;nbsp; I think this is actually apropos of GDF’s tenure.&amp;nbsp; There are some things that even the biggest haters of Gene can’t take away: the hockey team did win multiple national titles during his tenure, he moved the school from the BigEast to the ACC, and oversaw a period from the mid 2000’s until late 2000’s that were unmatched in terms of success for all of the teams at one time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That being said, you also have ammo if you’re a hater.&amp;nbsp; He meddled in daily coaching activities and put/shoved his nose where it didn’t belong—repeatedly.&amp;nbsp; He allowed TOB to go (which I’m fine with, it was time for both parties to move on), got into a public pissing match with Jags and forced out a hot coach that had taken BC to The Heights (pardon the pun) of the AP poll and national recognition, but most criminally hired Spaziani who had never coached a game in his life with the title of “Head Coach” until Gene hired him at the age of 68.&amp;nbsp; The supposed “National” search yielded a safe pick who has effectively run a perennial top 25 team into the ground to the point where we lost to Duke.&amp;nbsp; At home.&amp;nbsp; In football. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the end of the day, there were a lot of good things and a lot of bad things.&amp;nbsp; Eventually it became apparent it was best for both sides to move on.&amp;nbsp; To me, I now view GDF in a similar light as TOB.&amp;nbsp; I’m thankful for what they did here, happy they did what they did for BC, and more than content they have moved on. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;4W) Started my MBA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just when I knew I was already tired of school, I took the GMAT…. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Twice lol..&amp;nbsp;

width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt; is we get a new house first.&amp;nbsp; We live in North Buckhead which is a terrific area of Atlanta.&amp;nbsp; It’s near everything and we truly love living here.&amp;nbsp; The problem is it’s a condo and we just need more room if we’re going to have a little one (or more) running around.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus, the House Hunting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why didn’t someone tell me what an insanely brutal process this is?&amp;nbsp; Not only is the whoring yourself out to the realtors to have them sell your place awful, but attempting to find a home that both my wife and I like has proven to be tougher than sitting through a Frank Spaziani press conference and equally annoying. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did manage to come up with a pretty good comparison, though.&amp;nbsp; Basically I feel like house hunting is very, very similar to online dating.&amp;nbsp; People only post pictures that they think other folks will like, often at odd angles to make things look bigger or smaller.&amp;nbsp; When you show up and see it for the first time, you’re often left wondering: “What the f*ck is this?&amp;nbsp; This isn’t what I saw online!” but proceed to waste your time walking around and spending time just trying to make yourself like them so you can justify the time you’ve already invested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lastly, viewings are like page views or “winks”.&amp;nbsp; It’s great that people are interested enough to view you and inquire more, but only dates (offers on the home) actually count for anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We’re still in our condo.&amp;nbsp; I think we might just live in a van down by the river at this point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;6W) Also House hunting...&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So because of my life event of getting engaged, and planning a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifKZpO_wuf36mQU7JBULeDexaE2wwRrdm-c91g3C5E7EFotSpzY2BSpkIov3cFOKN2V-nT2kpVSGqA-9G5F-kgStP2xRj0oRwPFVuXqC0KWz0No5oWv6Lbp3CeJFXLUD40c2Mc2dxkRoW7/s1600/house+hunting2.jpg&quot;

Yes I am of the belief that it doesn’t matter how well Spaz does this year, he will be out. There are certain subtle hints in this. BC hype up videos with no sight of Spaz. The drop of a key recruit right before the announcement of Gene’s retirement. More interviews of the coordinators (both Martin and McGovern) Spaz will be let go ( in some creative BC way, which tries to save face for both sides) prior to next years season.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I am not necessarily calling for a playoffsystem, but I just think you have to win your division, to play thewinner of another division. Isn&#39;t that what its all about? Being anational Champion? The SEC championship has already been settled, sonow,there is a potential that a SEC champion loses to another SEC team forthe NC, this makes no sense. Well wait it does.. $$$ and that¹s theonlytype of sense it makes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;3M) It¹s not fair to LSU&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;So let me get this right‹LSU beats Alabama, wins their division andconference (as Wesley pointed out) and now all Alabama has to do isclipLSU the *SECOND* time they play them to become the national champion?How in the world is that fair?  Let¹s say for the sake of the argumentthat ŒBama wins.  Now you have one win for each, one loss foreachŠexceptLSU played one more game (SEC title game).  All others being equal,shouldn¹t the title stay with LSU even if they lost?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;4W) Okie St&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;Really this matchup should be against OSU and LSU. Both winning theirconference. And its not exactly like OSU had a cakewalk season beatingmany teamss by 59 or greater and having one blemish against IowaState (who had a pretty decent year ) in double overtime on a Friday night.If Iwas Gundy, Id be more than just a pissed off man that&#39;s 40.. I wouldpetition the BCS for angling what they wanted all along an $EC rematch&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;5M) SEC SEC SEC!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;This whole conference superiority thing has gotten so entirely out ofcontrol it&#39;s not even funny. The press has brainwashed the majority offans (and themselves) into believing that only the SEC matters andonlyteams from the SEC are worthy of playing for a national championship.It&#39;s just fucking crazy.  LSU should be there.  I get that.  They&#39;reundefeated and deserve to be there.But let&#39;s look at Alabama. They played one ranked team in LSU, who weallknow they lost to.  OOC, they scheduled North Texas, a DougMartin-lessKent State, and Georgia Southern...ALL at home.If this was a team from the Big Ten or PAC-12 people would bescreamingand stomping their feet over such a schedule.Listen, I&#39;m not an idiot--I do think the SEC is a terrific footballconference. I just think it&#39;s the ONLY football conference.There are good teams outside of the SEC, too.  I promise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;6W) Why Monday?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;I think it is time for the BCS or someone to say, lets have aChampionshipSaturday so our ratings are at their highest, more people can enjoy thegame, easier to travel for etc.Don&#39;t understand the &quot;biggest game of the year&quot; on a Monday.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;7M) The element of surprise is gone&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;I understand this kind of goes to the &quot;been there, done that&quot; point,buthere I&#39;m talking about the lack of excitement going into the gamebecausewe already know how they match up.Will LSU&#39;s D be able to shut down the Alabama rushing attack??Yes.Will Alamaba&#39;s D shut stop the mediocre LSU rushing attack?Yes.Any offense at all?No, not really.How will they match up?Like to hefty school girls slapping each other for three hoursstraight.I don&#39;t know about you, but I am REALLY excited about this matchup!  Somany surprises in store!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;8W)  The fans&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;You paint such an awesome visual of two hefty girls slapping eachother,for some reason I think this happens in a fast food place..But I digressI hate saying this, but living in the south makes this extra hard forme.Maybe its a hint of jealousy, I am not quite sure, maybe its the abilityfor two teams to have a very short drive to their &quot;nationalchampionship&quot;game. Im not sure. But I just can&#39;t handle all the fans going crazy overthe potential that their team is dominant once again, and every team inthe SEC is second only to the New England Patriots .So no matter what happens, I lose.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;9M) SEC Spin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;I feel your pain, Wesley. Of course, you&#39;re actually *IN* Alabama so itsurely is exacerbated for you.Here in going with the spin that casual fans and SEC fans are going toput on this championship.  Meaning, it will be another brick in the wallof the supposed SEC dominance in championship games, even though an SECteam has to win by default this year.An example of what I&#39;m talking about is my former boss. He&#39;s more of acasual fan and he was talking about how Auburn dominated Oregon in theMNC Game. What?  Yeah apparently Auburn just killed them.  Those PAC-10 guys justcan&#39;t hang with SEC ballin&#39;, he informed me.Weird, I told him.  I thought it was a field goal game that could havefor either way late in the fourth quarter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;10W) My personal quagmire of who to root for&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span  &gt;As most fans of football, I can always root for one over another, even ifI have no dog in the race. Well in this case, there really is no outcomethat I am happy with. At All. If both Teams could lose and forfeit theirfuture seasons I would probably be most pleased.

If we are going to win, Miami is going to&lt;br /&gt;not be able to convert these&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2M) Leave it all on the field&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It¹s be a frustrating season for all involved from the true freshman to&lt;br /&gt;the fifth year senior(s?).  Point is this take it out on Miami.  Leave it&lt;br /&gt;on the field.   Allow it to fuel you.  Make sure that this final game of&lt;br /&gt;this season is done with every ounce of everything you have and you&lt;br /&gt;walkaway knowing you left every little bit of it out there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3W) Scoring over 24&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am sticking with this. The D is going to be able to do some things, but&lt;br /&gt;if the Offense isn&#39;t able to put up over 24 points, its going to make it&lt;br /&gt;happen in Coral Gables. If Brock can show he can get a gameplan for over&lt;br /&gt;24 points, it may leave us all on a high note for next year. If not, its&lt;br /&gt;going to be a longer and colder offseason.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4M) Force Jacory to make the throws&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Harris has my respect as an athlete and he can be a good QB, however if&lt;br /&gt;we force him to be a pocket passer downfield and play back, we&#39;ll be in a&lt;br /&gt;good position to force some turnovers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5W) Defensive TD, LB&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mike I agree completely with your assessment of Harris, and if force him&lt;br /&gt;to make the throws we will be in a good position.&lt;br /&gt;Going off my last pick of scoring over 24, I think that the Offense is&lt;br /&gt;going to need some help from the D. I am not going to say Kuechly needs to&lt;br /&gt;do it , but our strongest corp is  the LB crew, I think and hope that one&lt;br /&gt;of them is able to do a pick 6&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6M) o-line wearing down D-line&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It might not pay immediate dividends, but we need our O-line to grind out a drive or two on the ground to beat up the Miami D-line and keep them from pinning their ears back and coming after Chase when we do pass. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7W) Max Homecoming&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Holloway will be able to play in front of friends and family this week, as&lt;br /&gt;we play in Florida. As Max has had nothing short of a very hot hand on&lt;br /&gt;Defense lately, we will need him to continue that streak and show everyone&lt;br /&gt;that it is actually more than just a streak, it is his style of play that&lt;br /&gt;we can look forward to enjoying for another year! And what a great place&lt;br /&gt;to do it! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8M) Punt coverage&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We had an outstanding week last week with Quigs and the punt team.  This week we&#39;ll kick to Benjamin and possibly others with breakaway speed that can make a big difference in field position. We need to contain the returns and have another great day by Quigs.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9W) ALJ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As ALJ has progressed as a true freshman, we were able to see him slowly&lt;br /&gt;grow on a field, when we needed players in the worst of ways. Coming in&lt;br /&gt;as a highly touted four star CB that we were able to get after he&lt;br /&gt;de-committed from the U, expectations are high, and will continue to be. I&lt;br /&gt;hope for ALJ to show the U what they missed when he changed his mind, and&lt;br /&gt;for us Eagle fans a glimpse into the future&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10M) Chase, set your feet&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We touched on this earlier with the O-line protecting the QB but the other half is Chase finding space to set up and get his feet set.   If his footwork is down he can throw a terrific ball--we need Chase to make sure he puts himself in a position to be able to have His feet set. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/feeds/8080195228845860616/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/keys-to-game-vs-miami.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/8080195228845860616'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/8080195228845860616'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/keys-to-game-vs-miami.html' title='Keys to the Game vs. Miami'/><author><name>BCMike</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04259278849389650910</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-yQzMUXycV6-QlRyy8MV16yXaja07jms8sbafVvNwchLey59XMiQAG3NvB2nASjsXt5O4Xsz7CS884XZH_iSi77RAwyzPvWA1NxiIICqaqlepjVr7jtB9W5PB34veUcA/s1600-r/n682494226_932283_5319.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693132595760033104.post-860875858414441432</id><published>2011-11-22T12:08:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-22T12:32:25.688-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Worst of the Worst vs. Notre Dame</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc2cxuNKE2maBI8TWa9wSTfLZD8LLmX6xfNAaIE9ochja7R5givWVeOxBuEdGTRTlkF9VDwXrLuReSXaJ6TLuN8Bl_ZwauVfHJPluCTPiOQuvFR3Qx7QK3Eqgot_e0TAH71DbEd5MFUOqh/s1600/images.jpeg&quot; onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 219px; height: 230px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc2cxuNKE2maBI8TWa9wSTfLZD8LLmX6xfNAaIE9ochja7R5givWVeOxBuEdGTRTlkF9VDwXrLuReSXaJ6TLuN8Bl_ZwauVfHJPluCTPiOQuvFR3Qx7QK3Eqgot_e0TAH71DbEd5MFUOqh/s320/images.jpeg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5677874330323908418&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;1M) 0-3 vs. Notre Dame&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It used to be us making fun of this game saying that a rivalry is a game where the other team wins occasionally.  Now, and for the entirety of this season, we’re the punchline.  We’re 0-3 in our last three games to ND.  Yes, this one was closer, but they don’t give you “you lost, but hey at least it was close” awards.  Spaz has never beaten Notre Dame, and has given us precious reason to believe he’s ever capable of doing so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2W) The BC Tease&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow Mike , that is definitely a gut check first round pick, I unfortunately agree.&lt;br /&gt;On my second pick , I am going to go with something close to that. As the gameprogressed, I honestly thought we could get a W.. Maybe it was my own will but I was really thinking it would happen. But we just couldn’t produce the points to make it happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3M) The dropped D-Fletch INT&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m as big of a D-Fletch fan as you’ll find, but he had a game to forget on a couple of really key plays.  I’m only going to address one here: the dropped INT on the goal line.  ND only wound up getting three out of it, but as it turns out—those three points could have made quite the difference and certainly would have moved momentum in our direction much earlier in the ballgame.  For a player like Asprilla orALJ, or any other of the green D-backs this drop would have been borderlineexcusable.  First game at ND, big rivalry game, not a lot ofexperience, etc., but D-Fletch has had all of those things and is a very good CB. That drop really hurt us early on…and sadly correctly set the tone for how the game would go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4W) Freese onsides kick&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rightwhen you knew this was going to be what gave us another opportunity to win, or be the nail on the coffin. We all witnessed what may have been the worst onsides kick in BC history.&lt;br /&gt;I like Freese, I really do he is a very talented player, but that onsides kick gave us no opportunity to recover&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5M) Wasting Quigley’s Day&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh man…Wesley, I couldn’t agree with you more.  What a fantastic kick in the junk that was.   I stilllike Freese and think that while this year has been tough for him, he’s a good kicker overall—but man oh man was that onsides kick a thing of legend (in as bad of a way as possible).  If Ididn’t know better, I’d think this was a secret Spaz strategy to catch them off guard 30 yards down the field. Brutal way to end the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m going to flip the coin theother way and talk about the wasted efforts of the silver lining that was Ryan Quigley’s day Saturday.  Simply put, he kept us in the game.  If you look at the total offense numbers, it’s a blowout on paper.  It was only due to Twig’s amazing punting day that we even stayed close.  This is not to forget the awesome day the punt coverage team had as well—certainly not a one man show and together they were simply terrific.  Truly a shame that such a performance was wasted on a loss.  Had we won, this likely would have been a top 3 best of the best call-out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lastly, let’s take a moment toappreciate how GOOD our punters have been recently.  Much of the talk recently has been about how spoiled we’ve been as fans/alums for the QB play we had prior to / including Crane (this is where most split).  While that’s a fair topic, let’s not forget Johnny Ayers and his outstanding four years and now the three plus that we’re getting out of Quigley.  You only really notice them, generally speaking, when they do something bad.  We haven’t paid attention to the punting game inalmost a decade.  We need to appreciate this fact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;6W)  Not getting over 14 &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Really the Defense had a good gameplan and executed it. Holding ND to 16 points is what it needed to do to obtain a win, so I would say that the defense did their part. The offense on the other hand was nothing short of offensive. After being put in repetitive good position with the ball, the offense reminded me of groundhog day as it was uber predictable. Not enough shots down field, when tosses toPantale were working they didn’t continue to go there. You need to play to win, and I have to say our Offensive game plan seemed to play not to make mistakes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;7M) O-LinePassProtection&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Agreed on the point line, Wesley.  It’s a little sad when you look at this year—and Spaz’s tenure for that matter—and you realize we’ve only scored over 20 points something like four times in two years against FBS competition (Duke, Wake, Kent State, and Maryland.  I won’t even bother at that collective winning percentage; you can make a healthy guess).  That’s not even addressing the 13.33 (13, 13, 14) pts/game average in the three recent bowl games—not that we’ll have to worry about that this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sigh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here with my 4th pick, 7th overall I’m going with the O-Line pass protection.  Yes, I know they’ve been beaten up all year, but now folks are getting after Rettig more and more.  I’m not.  When Chase has time to throw and sets his feet (this happens maybe 1/5, 1/6 plays), he throws a tight, accurate ball.  When the line breaks down, Chase admittedly gets happy feet and when that happens he’s as accurate as a drunk throwing beads at Mardi Gras—except it looks like he’s not having nearly as much fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So yes, I agree Chase needs to calm down those happy feet—but look to the cause…the lack of protection from the O-line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;8W) Hearing the ND band play our song&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now Granted I like hearing Shipping up to Boston over and over, and the Notre Dame band did about as well as any French bandcould do. But let me set them straight real quick.&lt;br /&gt;That song is associated to Boston College, Irish and tradition. All things that Notre Dame has tried to be attached to for years, but has failed miserably.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;9M) Jonas Gray injury&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No kidding.  It’s not like the name of the City of Boston isn’t right in the song title or anything for “Shipping up to BOSTON”.  Sheesh.  ….and these are the kids who like to pretend like they’re wicked smaht.  What a bunch of retahds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For number nine I’m going with the Jonas Gray injury.  I know it wasn’t a BC player but the announcers did talk at length at how the young man has turned his life around and had worked so hard at becoming a better football player and person—and that it was all finally paying off for him and he was now looking like a strong candidate to be drafted into the NFL.  It was very sad to see the knee injury occur and all you can do is wish this young man the best and tell him if he needs a roadmap for how to overcome adversity and make your way into the NFL, check out #58 for Big Blue on Sunday Night Football.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;10M) The rest of the BC programs getting losses as well&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mike I agree,  Gray was absolutely destroying us as well, he is just a huge back to bring down. Hope nothing but the best for the guy.&lt;br /&gt;It wasn&#39;t just a rough weekend for the football team. Hockey, Basketball, and pretty much every other team that was fielded over the weekend came back with a loss.. A&#39;int that a kick in the pants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/feeds/860875858414441432/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/1m-0-3-vs.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/860875858414441432'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/860875858414441432'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/1m-0-3-vs.html' title='Worst of the Worst vs. Notre Dame'/><author><name>BCMike</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04259278849389650910</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-yQzMUXycV6-QlRyy8MV16yXaja07jms8sbafVvNwchLey59XMiQAG3NvB2nASjsXt5O4Xsz7CS884XZH_iSi77RAwyzPvWA1NxiIICqaqlepjVr7jtB9W5PB34veUcA/s1600-r/n682494226_932283_5319.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc2cxuNKE2maBI8TWa9wSTfLZD8LLmX6xfNAaIE9ochja7R5givWVeOxBuEdGTRTlkF9VDwXrLuReSXaJ6TLuN8Bl_ZwauVfHJPluCTPiOQuvFR3Qx7QK3Eqgot_e0TAH71DbEd5MFUOqh/s72-c/images.jpeg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693132595760033104.post-4294099368186769225</id><published>2011-11-19T11:24:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-19T11:24:00.870-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Keys to the game vs. Notre Dame</title><content type='html'>Keys to the Game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1W) Keep the foot on the Gas&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;28 pts or bust&lt;br /&gt;Ok, Boston College has shown that it can go for 30 mins on offense.. I&lt;br /&gt;hate to say it , but 14points isn&#39;t going to win against ND. It will take&lt;br /&gt;twice of that to win.&lt;br /&gt;28 points is what it takes, which really isn&#39;t much. But If we are able&lt;br /&gt;to hit the 28 point water mark. I think there will be a W.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2M) It¹s the Holy War&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I mean by that is this: don¹t worry about the records.  Don¹t worry&lt;br /&gt;about the point spread.  Don¹t worry about the expectations.  Don¹t worry&lt;br /&gt;about what the media is saying.  This is the Holy War.  These are the&lt;br /&gt;only two FBS Catholic Schools playing football.  Both with proud Irish&lt;br /&gt;roots.  Ours, of course, are real‹my ancestor¹s ship didn¹t dock in&lt;br /&gt;Indiana.  I digress&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a rivalry game.  Get up for it.  Soak in the ambiance that is&lt;br /&gt;Notre Dame Stadium.  Know that despite what some of their lesser fans&lt;br /&gt;might argue, this is a rivalry game and one which has never paid&lt;br /&gt;attention to rankings or spreads.  This is a rivalry game, and anything&lt;br /&gt;can happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3W) Chase Rettig Rollouts&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know one thing that I saw in the first couple of games that seemed to&lt;br /&gt;die off as of late? The Roll outs from Chase. Although I have seen a&lt;br /&gt;marginal improvement from the O Line, I still like when Chase Rolls out,&lt;br /&gt;and buys some more time for himself and the receivers. And I kinda think&lt;br /&gt;he is even more accurate when doing this , as he focuses less on the&lt;br /&gt;Defense coming after him and more about the throw&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4M) no Redzone fumbles&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are simply not good enough to get away with fumbling the ball in our&lt;br /&gt;own red zone nor can we afford to miss an opportunity to put up points&lt;br /&gt;while in theirs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we are going to pull this upset, we need to limit the turnovers but&lt;br /&gt;specifically we can&#39;t have the killer ones like we did vs. FSU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We do that, this game gets quickly out of hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5W) Keuchly out tackling Teo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although I really don&#39;t think this is going to be much of a competition,&lt;br /&gt;I don&#39;t think that I am going to be the only one counting and matching&lt;br /&gt;these at home.&lt;br /&gt;As both players we be competing for the overall win, I do think the&lt;br /&gt;individual competition of who is a better LB will be an interesting one.,&lt;br /&gt;and I already know who I would pick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6M) team leaders providing the spark&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we know the team isn&#39;t going to rally around Spaz or his incoherent&lt;br /&gt;mumblings, do we need our guys to self-motivate and inspire each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Early in the season when searching for excuses and we and creative ways&lt;br /&gt;to throw out players under the bus, Spaz said we lacked leadership.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prove him wrong, step up and be a leader of yourself and your teammates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7W) Trick play.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&#39;t know if it&#39;s a flea-flicker or what, but I want to see something&lt;br /&gt;that makes me realize that they are willing to try something different.&lt;br /&gt;No this doesn&#39;t include the Bordner option. I want to win the game, and&lt;br /&gt;play that way&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8M) Holloway making &#39;em howl&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last week Max had a breakout performance where he consistently dominated&lt;br /&gt;the opposing tackle and harassed Glennon all game long.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Max can keep this mean streak going and put the same sort of pressure&lt;br /&gt;on Rees (or whomever else they decide to throw back there) that allows us&lt;br /&gt;to play that soft opportunistic zone that Spaz / Govs love to run.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He was THE game changer last week, of we see it happen again this week it&lt;br /&gt;could be the start of something special.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9W) Chase Completion % over 60&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now let me put the disclaimer that he needs to throw the ball over 20&lt;br /&gt;times, but a completion rate over 60% is all that I think he needs to&lt;br /&gt;achieve.&lt;br /&gt;Chase has had some happy feet understandably, those happy feet have a hard&lt;br /&gt;time being consistent, possibly utilizing draft pick 3 he can help improve&lt;br /&gt;his % to 60, but by doing that, I believe we win. And 60% isn&#39;t an insane&lt;br /&gt;number.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10M) Asprilla / Sylvia taking chances&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen, we&#39;re 24.5 point underdogs. If we play back and just hope turnovers come our way, we might be waiting a very long time.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to take chances and be aggressive on D in the passing game and try to get interceptions and big returns. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I understand the risk on being aggressive here, but I think it&#39;s a risk we need to take to win. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/feeds/4294099368186769225/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/keys-to-game_19.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/4294099368186769225'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/4294099368186769225'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/keys-to-game_19.html' title='Keys to the game vs. Notre Dame'/><author><name>BCMike</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04259278849389650910</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-yQzMUXycV6-QlRyy8MV16yXaja07jms8sbafVvNwchLey59XMiQAG3NvB2nASjsXt5O4Xsz7CS884XZH_iSi77RAwyzPvWA1NxiIICqaqlepjVr7jtB9W5PB34veUcA/s1600-r/n682494226_932283_5319.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693132595760033104.post-4967492645860377369</id><published>2011-11-17T11:24:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-17T11:24:20.152-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Best of the Best vs. NC State</title><content type='html'>Hooray! We won the Ginger Bowl!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;1)      Max&#39;s Motor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&#39;t know what or who possessed Max Holloway on Saturday, but I&lt;br /&gt;sure&lt;br /&gt;hope he comes back often.  The last time I recall a DE position&lt;br /&gt;playing&lt;br /&gt;for BC that was as dominant as Max was on Saturday, he wore 94.&lt;br /&gt;That&#39;s&lt;br /&gt;Mathias Kiwanuka for those of you who thought Herzy was the only&lt;br /&gt;great&lt;br /&gt;Eagle ever to dawn the numberŠ  Truly an outstanding performance,&lt;br /&gt;multiple pressures, sacks, forced fumble&lt;you couldn&#39;t possibly ask&lt;br /&gt;for&lt;br /&gt;more out of Max.  Just a truly tremendous game by Holloway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2w) Rettig to Larmond&lt;br /&gt;Mike I couldn&#39;t agree more, are we seeing the max that we hear so&lt;br /&gt;much&lt;br /&gt;about in doing camp?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The pass from Rettig to Larmond was as good as they come, perfect&lt;br /&gt;touch,&lt;br /&gt;great route running, and a TD what more do you want haha.. Oh top&lt;br /&gt;that&lt;br /&gt;off with mamas boy written on his towel that he displayed after the&lt;br /&gt;td,i&#39;m guessing this could be a recurring thing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3m) Bordner read-option TD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I absolutely agree with this one, Wesley--you took my pick out from&lt;br /&gt;under&lt;br /&gt;me.  Chase has been beaten up--both by the press of recent and by&lt;br /&gt;the&lt;br /&gt;D-linemen coming after him this year--and this play showed all of&lt;br /&gt;the&lt;br /&gt;haters what he can do.  Just a perfectly thrown ball with supreme&lt;br /&gt;accuracy and just enough air under it so that a great move by&lt;br /&gt;Larmond&lt;br /&gt;off&lt;br /&gt;the line of scrimmage was rewarded with six.  Great call.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For my second pick, third overall, I&#39;ll go with the Border&lt;br /&gt;read-option&lt;br /&gt;on the goal-line.  Just like we called for in the keys to the game&lt;br /&gt;(link), Bordner caught&lt;br /&gt;the NC State a little off guard and walked into the endzone for the&lt;br /&gt;first&lt;br /&gt;BC touchdown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was used again with not as much success (as it turned into a&lt;br /&gt;reliable&lt;br /&gt;QB sneak with little threat of a pitch/handoff and zero threat of a&lt;br /&gt;pass), but this was a great play call and execution close to the&lt;br /&gt;goal&lt;br /&gt;line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4W) Luke getting 18&lt;br /&gt;Now you just read the number, 18 right? That&#39;s what most&lt;br /&gt;statisticians&lt;br /&gt;will read and say, another day at the office for Luke.. But then you&lt;br /&gt;would&lt;br /&gt;only know about 1/10th of the story. Luke had 9 going into the 4th&lt;br /&gt;quarter, and injured his shoulder. I think a lot of us BC fans were&lt;br /&gt;concerned about Luke&#39;s health, and sad about the potential of not&lt;br /&gt;hitting&lt;br /&gt;the 10 or greater streak he has been on.. But Luke came back and&lt;br /&gt;made&lt;br /&gt;9&lt;br /&gt;tackles in the 4th quarter alone.&lt;br /&gt;Like I said , you look at the stats of 18, and although those are&lt;br /&gt;impressive, understanding that Luke went out with an injury, and&lt;br /&gt;then&lt;br /&gt;came&lt;br /&gt;back in possessed is the real story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5M) Chase to Amidon bomb&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you had the misfortune of watching the Florida State / BC game,&lt;br /&gt;then&lt;br /&gt;you know we rarely ever took shots downfield (or had the time to&lt;br /&gt;throw&lt;br /&gt;them, for that matter).  This time, the line held up enough to give&lt;br /&gt;Chase&lt;br /&gt;time to move laterally and see that Amidon had beaten his man on a&lt;br /&gt;&quot;go&quot;&lt;br /&gt;route.  The ball was actually beautifully placed in a space that&lt;br /&gt;ONLY&lt;br /&gt;Amidon could have caught it, there was zero chance of an INT on that&lt;br /&gt;pass.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amidon made a terrific adjustment with his body from where he was&lt;br /&gt;towards&lt;br /&gt;the sidelines, secured the ball and got one foot in bounds all&lt;br /&gt;before&lt;br /&gt;the&lt;br /&gt;NC State Corner had an idea of what was going on.  This huge chunk&lt;br /&gt;of&lt;br /&gt;yardage set up the Bordner TD run and put BC out in front--where we&lt;br /&gt;would&lt;br /&gt;never look back (strange to type that this year).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6W)Quinn Sack&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, Quinn had a penalty, but I was very impressed with the amount of&lt;br /&gt;pressure that Quinn put on NC State, and really got the opportunity&lt;br /&gt;to&lt;br /&gt;demonstrate his strength when he was able to keep his pads low.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7M) Kickoff / Punt return coverage&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It may sound faint, but TJ Graham is a game-breaker.  The fact that we&lt;br /&gt;were able to keep him under wraps and not allow him to hurt us at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8W) First half offensive play calling&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Honestly , the first half of offensive play calling was hands down the&lt;br /&gt;best play calling we have seen all year. There was plenty of different&lt;br /&gt;sets, good change of pace, and was pretty successful ( would have been&lt;br /&gt;more successful without some drops etc) with that said, the second half&lt;br /&gt;was atrocious.&lt;br /&gt;Dave Brock, when scripting a game plan, do the whole game next time, we&lt;br /&gt;need it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9M) Sylvia blitz&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of our biggest problems with bringing pressure has been when we have&lt;br /&gt;blitzed, we&#39;ve telegraphed it well ahead of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On this play, Sylvia walked up to the line and got a great jump, pursued&lt;br /&gt;into the backfield and --this is the great part--leapt at the running&lt;br /&gt;back and brought him down before he had a chance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10W) Duggan&lt;br /&gt;You know as Duggan is a true freshman, stepping in the starting role for&lt;br /&gt;an injured KPL, he has done nothing short of an awesome job.&lt;br /&gt;Duggan was able to grab a handful of tackles, and overall is outplaying&lt;br /&gt;his experience. Has he made some mistakes, sure, but he is a very pleasant&lt;br /&gt;surprise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/feeds/4967492645860377369/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/hooray-we-won-ginger-bowl-1-maxs-motor.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/4967492645860377369'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/4967492645860377369'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/11/hooray-we-won-ginger-bowl-1-maxs-motor.html' title='Best of the Best vs. NC State'/><author><name>BCMike</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04259278849389650910</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-yQzMUXycV6-QlRyy8MV16yXaja07jms8sbafVvNwchLey59XMiQAG3NvB2nASjsXt5O4Xsz7CS884XZH_iSi77RAwyzPvWA1NxiIICqaqlepjVr7jtB9W5PB34veUcA/s1600-r/n682494226_932283_5319.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693132595760033104.post-4131851606298649191</id><published>2011-11-11T12:52:00.007-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-11T13:09:00.295-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Draft 11-11-11: Keys to the Game vs. NC State</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2F4yMtfG9sZEPEhfnrxPzygfvIfcGnyBH39Og4ipmMor7LEFHrHhFkchj_CYLmouP6wRkuEbWbnIb8UYcwIwy6_iZlBYZv9oBH-sF98SsfOu3rYe3svlBPTxmC1PMjj4ADDRNuOgfBb34/s1600/35768_NC_State_Boston_College_Football.jpeg&quot; onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 215px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2F4yMtfG9sZEPEhfnrxPzygfvIfcGnyBH39Og4ipmMor7LEFHrHhFkchj_CYLmouP6wRkuEbWbnIb8UYcwIwy6_iZlBYZv9oBH-sF98SsfOu3rYe3svlBPTxmC1PMjj4ADDRNuOgfBb34/s320/35768_NC_State_Boston_College_Football.jpeg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673800705699356290&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;&gt;We call this week PatriotGolfer week,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;&gt;as the old disciplinarian comes back in town, the Eagles will have their last home game of the 2011 season.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;b&gt;1W) Don&#39;t try to out TOB, TOB.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;As it goes without saying, Spaz has a lot of tendencies of TOB, playing not to lose would probably be one of the biggest ones. It&#39;s kinda like thatmovie where the guy tries to outrun the semi truck but just cant seem to keep the gas pedal over 65 consistently. If we do get a lead, I hope Spaz somehow has a transformation and just keeps driving..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2M) Blitz Glennon every down&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m not even joking.  A joke would be “hey, I bet Glennon is better than Russell Wilson”.  Glennon, like his brother, stays in the pocket entirely too long and often makes bad decisions as he somehow is able to sense the rush yet does nothing to elude it.  The kid actually does throw a pretty ball if you give him plenty of time for himself and the play to develop, and a solid two yard pocket with no one pressuring him.  In other words, our typical front four rush.&lt;br /&gt;We need to blitz all the time vs. Glennon.  Sitting back and watching him have time we’ll get hurt.  Pressure him and we’re bound to get rewarded with multiple turnovers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3W) Chase Enfuego&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I somewhat disagree with you on that last one , as much as I enjoyed seeing Asprilla light up Manuellast week, I actually think we are lacking in a couple areas to be successful on that.&lt;br /&gt;1)being lack of Defensive line push 2) KPL is out  If both of these two points were different I would completely agree with you.&lt;br /&gt;I think for us to be successful this week we need Chase to show everyone that he is the leader on the Offense, that means rollouts, shaking defenders and making good decisions with the ball. Yes I agree that the O Line hasn’t been doing him a ton of favors, but leaders, lead. So here is your chance to show that you are a leader&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4M) All (a)Bordner run-option&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;Huh?  The lack of defensive line push is *exactly* why we need to blitz.  If we could create pressure with our front four consistently we wouldn’t have to blitz.  Unfortunately, we do need to blitz to create pressure.  Iagree with you it’s tough with KPL out, but his run-stop game is arguably much better than his pass D anyway.  Duggan has been solid in his absence Ithink.&lt;br /&gt;I’m still a Chase fan—I really am.  However, I have to agree with a poster who I saw recently said he thought Chase was getting “David Carr’d”.  I struggle not to agree with this.  I think Chase is getting a little gun shy to the pressure—and who could blame him with the pass protection being what it’s been thus far.  I still think he has all of the tools but they’ve not come together this year as much as he and the rest of us would like.&lt;br /&gt;My key here is to run the Bordner run-option.  I don’t know why it worked so well….well, minus the goal-line fumble.  Part of it was just because FSU was unprepared for it, but as Wesley and I can tell you from seeing Bordner in person, the kid is physically imposing.  You don’t think QB when you see him, you think slightly underweight TE.  I think he can do some damage at this run-option thing and gosh knows TOB won’t adjust to it if it’s actually effective.  I think we trot it out early and milk it if it’s effective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5W) D Fletch – Lives!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think the biggest positive of having Bordner in the game is the threat of him jumping in, as teams have to plan for it and lose the focus on the other items in place, so I like the change of pace.&lt;br /&gt;Haha and I do followthe rationale of no d line push is a reason to blitz, but if your Dline is unable to #OccupytheOLine, when we blitz it ends up being futile, and we just end up with players way out of position for no gain.&lt;br /&gt;Donnie has been one of our most heralded players in the secondary in awhile, although he has been very quiet this year. As it is his senior year, this is going to be his last time to shine in front of the BC Eagles Faithful, so it is time for him to add somefootage for tapes for the pros to look at.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;6M) Coaching to win, not to lose by a little&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Haha, I like #OccupyThe0Line  Iwonder if the students are planning an event for *our* O-Line…. Sigh….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a little like your first key, but specifically addresses something that the media and the “roving horde of BC bloggers” have addressed ad nauseum this week: the 4th quarter milking the clock drive and subsequent punt from the FSU side of the field down by 30.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even if you (I’m hoping a strong IF) have lost all hope that we can be competitive and still fight back in a game, you have to be aggressive enough for me to think that maybe you still want to try to win the game and do some damage.  Spaz needs to put the kids in a position where they can fight back and try to win the game—not learn how to gracefully turn over and die so the final score doesn’t reflect how much of a beating we truly endured.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;7W) Fan support&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;This probably won&#39;t be the most popular item on the list, but it is something that matters. As a fan you have an association to the team, whether you went to the school or not, you are what fills the stadium, what generates money for the school, and one of the most noticeable items when glancing at games is the fan support in the stadium. Heck when you hear recruits talk about things, one of the biggest items is the feeling / buzz during the game whether the team won or lost.&lt;br /&gt;I agree, Boston College has a ton of hurdles. Lack of tailgating, Staties, rough product on the field, Unemotional coaches, etc etc etc. But as fans its what we have signed up for, whether we think the coach should be returning for additional year or not… As this is the last home game for the seniors , I&#39;d like to see good fan support as it looks to be a pretty nice Saturday on the Heights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;8W) LB’s keying the run&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TOB is going to want to run when he can.  Yes, I want us to blitz and be aware of the hot routes (red seven…RED SEVEN!!!) but I think our backers can get the upper hand early by jumping the run and forcing NCSU to be one-dimensional.  If we can force them to pass and get pressure, I think we’ll have a good chance at a W.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;9W)Keeks being Keeks&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;We say it most weeks, but its very true, Kuechly week in and out is our best tackler, thisgame could easily be his last game at the heights ( something I hadn&#39;t really thought of before)&lt;br /&gt;I hope that I am wrong, but it is very possible as he is already viewed as a first round pick. I would like to see Keeks going out whether it be the for the season or for his career with a bang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;10M) Freese hitting his mark&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think this will be a very tight, close game.  One that is likely determined by less than a touchdown…which means that our kickers will most certainly play a roll.  Freese will need to be money for us if it’s a close game and be ready to trot onto the field to kick the game winner at a moment’s notice.  Get that Duke monkey off your back and win the game!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RECAP:&lt;br /&gt;Wesley drafted: Don’t out TOB TOB, Chase en fuego, D-Fletch Lives, Fan Support, Keeks being Keeks&lt;br /&gt;BCMike drafted: Blitz Glennon, all aBordner, Coach to win, LB’s key the run, Freese hits his mark       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form method=&quot;post&quot;

  2224. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;   style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;It&#39;s been a&lt;strike&gt; up and &lt;/strike&gt; down year for BC, and the one saving grace is that the curtain is certainly closing on the Head Coaching career of Frank
  2225. &lt;br /&gt;Spaziani.
  2226. &lt;br /&gt;
  2227. &lt;br /&gt;Coach, thank you for all of your year as a Defensive
  2228. &lt;br /&gt;Coordinator and we appreciate you stepping up and taking thereigns when
  2229. &lt;br /&gt;we needed some consistency at the head of our table.   We hope you
  2230. &lt;br /&gt;thoroughly enjoy retirement and visit Alumni Stadium often.
  2231. &lt;br /&gt;
  2232. &lt;br /&gt;Since Spaz will be gone in a couple weeks, let&#39;s focus our attention on who will be replacing the mustachioed one at the Head Coaching spot.
  2233. &lt;br /&gt;
  2234. &lt;br /&gt;Some are reaches, others would be easy gets.
  2235. &lt;br /&gt;
  2236. &lt;br /&gt;--------------------------------------------------
  2237. &lt;br /&gt;
  2238. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;1M) Mike Leach&lt;/b&gt;
  2239. &lt;br /&gt;
  2240. &lt;br /&gt;Despite what you may have heard about him, Mike Leach is a good guy and
  2241. &lt;br /&gt;one who values education for his players and teams.  In fact, while at
  2242. &lt;br /&gt;Texas Tech, Leach had the Red Raiders leading the country in graduation
  2243. &lt;br /&gt;rates for a public institution.  Now, if you know anything about Texas
  2244. &lt;br /&gt;Tech‹that accomplishment is that much more impressive.
  2245. &lt;br /&gt;
  2246. &lt;br /&gt;Leach would bring a long, painfully overdue level of excitement and
  2247. &lt;br /&gt;energy to TheHeights and create a buzz in Chestnut Hill that hasn?t been
  2248. &lt;br /&gt;here since Matty Ice and Jags were.  Yes, he would likely take a couple
  2249. &lt;br /&gt;seasons to get ?his guys? in house, but I have no problem believing that
  2250. &lt;br /&gt;he could take this current team and turn them into a bowl team in his
  2251. &lt;br /&gt;first year.
  2252. &lt;br /&gt;
  2253. &lt;br /&gt;
  2254. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2W) Ruffin McNeill, Eastern Carolina&lt;/b&gt;
  2255. &lt;br /&gt;
  2256. &lt;br /&gt;I do like the thought of Mike Leach , and I think he would be a fit as well, but I think a some of the whalepants crowd would have a bit of a
  2257. &lt;br /&gt;problem with Leach, just based on the name, not necessarily anything past
  2258. &lt;br /&gt;that.
  2259. &lt;br /&gt;
  2260. &lt;br /&gt;On my choice, I actually am going with Ruffin McNeill, who actually was a
  2261. &lt;br /&gt;DC under Leach, and is currently the HC at East Carolina. At ECU he has
  2262. &lt;br /&gt;done some pretty good things, and able to compete with the bigger
  2263. &lt;br /&gt;programs in the Carolinas. Although he is an ECU Alum, I have to think
  2264. &lt;br /&gt;that BC could actually give him a pay increase, something that they
  2265. &lt;br /&gt;couldn&#39;tt necessarily give everyone.
  2266. &lt;br /&gt;
  2267. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3M) Steve Logan, Tampa Bay&lt;/b&gt;
  2268. &lt;br /&gt;
  2269. &lt;br /&gt;Yes, THAT Steve Logan.  He was tied to Jags and dismissed because of his affiliation bit at the end of the day he was, at the supreme least, responsible for one of the best offenses and teams Boston College has ever had.
  2270. &lt;br /&gt;
  2271. &lt;br /&gt;He did interview for the position when it became open which shows his interest and unlike just about every other possible outside candidate, he know what BC is like and what BC is about.
  2272. &lt;br /&gt;
  2273. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4W) Al Golden, Miami&lt;/b&gt;
  2274. &lt;br /&gt;
  2275. &lt;br /&gt;BCMike as I do like the thought as Steve Logan as a HC, I think it would take an AD change to make that happen, so we may see that opportunity.
  2276. &lt;br /&gt;
  2277. &lt;br /&gt;I am going with Al Golden, as I liked Golden when he was a candidate in 2009, and went to Miami, but due to the recent issues in Miami, it seems that there may be an out clause for Al pending sanctions, see cbssports article (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/6270202/33070687&quot;&gt;http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/6270202/33070687&lt;/a&gt;) So we may actually get a second chance at what I think is a very good coach, who has some ties to BC and the NorthEast
  2278. &lt;br /&gt;
  2279. &lt;br /&gt;
  2280. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5M) Tony Sparano&lt;/b&gt;
  2281. &lt;br /&gt;
  2282. &lt;br /&gt;I expect Tony to be available after this season and I love his X&#39;s and O&#39;s.
  2283. &lt;br /&gt;
  2284. &lt;br /&gt;He&#39;s in a borderline unwinable situation on the NFL and while he&#39;s likely to be kicked out of Miami he&#39;s be a big hot in Chestnut Hill.
  2285. &lt;br /&gt;
  2286. &lt;br /&gt;
  2287. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;6W) Bill O&#39;Brien, New England&lt;/b&gt;
  2288. &lt;br /&gt;
  2289. &lt;br /&gt;I honestly do not know much about Bill O&#39;Brien, outside that he is the current Offensive Coordinator for the Pats and has ties to BC. But there have been current rumors that he has sent GDF multiple emails on how to improve the program and is very interested in the Program, and obviously has ties to the North East
  2290. &lt;br /&gt;
  2291. &lt;br /&gt;
  2292. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt; 7M) Rick Trickett, FSU&lt;/b&gt;
  2293. &lt;br /&gt;
  2294. &lt;br /&gt;We need to get back to what we traditionally do best and that&#39;s the O-Line. Trickett is known as one of the best line guys out there and could help us earn back the title we&#39;ve so clearly lost.
  2295. &lt;br /&gt;
  2296. &lt;br /&gt;
  2297. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;8W)  Kevin Sumlin, Houston&lt;/b&gt;
  2298. &lt;br /&gt;
  2299. &lt;br /&gt;Currently the Head Coach at the University of Houston, but has coached at at Oklahoma/Texas A&amp;amp;M and Purdue to name a few Sumlin is a tested Head Coach that has a proven track record in a tough area to compete. Although Sumlin doesn&#39;t have any ties in the Northeast, I still think he could be successful.
  2300. &lt;br /&gt;
  2301. &lt;br /&gt;
  2302. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;9M) Kirby Smart, Alabama&lt;/b&gt;
  2303. &lt;br /&gt;
  2304. &lt;br /&gt;Kirby has followed Nick Saban around for the majority of his career—but wherever he’s gone, he’s helped make teams better.  It’s true that Smart has no Head Coaching experience, but that’s why this is not as much of a stretch as some might think.  He’s looking for a major program to give him a shot to be a head of a program and I’m sure he would rather have a go of it elsewhere other than the SEC attempting to rebuild a program and going against his alma mater, his mentor’s school, and his former employer (UGA, Alabama, and LSU, respectively), the ACC would be a perfect fit for Smart as he’d be able to stay on the East Coast and likely compete immediately.
  2305. &lt;br /&gt;
  2306. &lt;br /&gt;
  2307. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;10W) Butch Jones, Cincinnati &lt;/b&gt;
  2308. &lt;br /&gt;
  2309. &lt;br /&gt;This one hasn&#39;t really been floated out there, but I think that it should. Butch ran a good program when he was at Central Michigan, and was able to compete with the higher competition, and now he is in Cincinnati and after a rough first year seems to slowly be getting his program in place, I think Butch has some serious potential, and could be a good Head Coach at the Heights!
  2310. &lt;br /&gt;
  2311. &lt;br /&gt;Recap:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;   style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;BCMike: Leach, Logan, Soprano, Trickett, Smart&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;   style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;Wesley: McNeill, Golden, O&#39;Brien, Sumlin, Jones

As this is the first game that is on prime time, the Eagles will try to have their best game forward for the nation to see.. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;   style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;1W) Stop EJ Manuel&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am hoping to see a good amount of blitzes, and some great penetration by the Dline , as EJ is a Quarterback that can beat you in multiple ways. This game I think is going to come down to putting EJ Manuel on his back , a problem we have had with allquarterbacks we have faced this year and not letting him move around in thepocket, or have any quick runs. Already rushing for three touchdowns andhaving a QB rating of 155 means we have to stop him from being successful against us at all costs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2M) Rise and Shine for Prime Time&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s been a tough year, but now you’ve won a game (convincingly, at that) and things are feeling good.  The spotlight of the nation is now turned upon you…at home…at night…in primetime.  It’s time for us to rise up and play our best ball in front of the nation.  Feed off the moment and play the best game of the year Thursday night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3W) Deep Threat &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ANNNNDDDD you stole my next draft pick.. Maybe that is a good sign, I think being ready for being on regular espn, not 2 3 or the ocho is a change, so we are undefeated on thatchannel!!&lt;br /&gt;There is no doubt that Florida State watched the film of us vs Maryland, which must look like a boot leg tape of the paris hilton video, but nonetheless they see the constant running that the Duece did over and over and over.. They will be loading the box, trying to stop that run, which will be a great opportunity to dump it over their heads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4M) O-Line U earning their namesake&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While Deuce Finch gained much of thefame for his incredible 243 yard performance in the end-of-days conditions this past week vs. Maryland—and rightfully so—the thing I think most BC fans were happy about is how well our O-Line played.  Truly their best game of the year and it wasn’t even close.  For whatever reason—they jelled.  Was it the conditions?  The competition?  The back in the backfield?  Who knows.  What I do know is we saw our O-Line dominate for the first time in YEARS against a D-1 opponent.  It’s time to bring sexy back…in the form of our lost title…O-line U.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You dominate like you did vs. Maryland and O-Line U might just be back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5W) Coaches take Chances&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We aren&#39;t going to be favored at home, Florida has florida athletes, which typically we do not get. So to beat them we are going to have to go outside of our typical scope. We are going to have to take some chances, go for it on fourth, and play to win, not to keep it close.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6M) Superfans being Super&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People in the media and BC haters love to give our fans a hard time…but truthfully, our student section is among the loudest, best organized in the nation.  I’ll honestly put them up against any school, any day (it’s the rest we have an issue with).  We need our kids to be hyped up and create a genuine homefield advantage for us…something that helps fuels our players and makes the FSU kids wonder hey—what happened here—and what sort of hostile environment did we just walk into?  If we are going to win this game it will be a team effort—not just the players and the coaches—but the fans in the stands making Alumni the sort of homefield advantages that Thursday night games have been for our Eagles over the years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7W) Secondary stepping up&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Great Call on the SuperFans, I truly hope we look better on this Thursday night vs. our future ACC Brethren Pitt did last week.&lt;br /&gt;As the Dline is going to be my thermometer in if we win or lose, secondary .. Is going to be the secondary. The secondary is going to more than likely play strict zone as they typically do, but have to cover their zone a bit tighter as CJ has been very successful at 10 yard slants and curls. Hopefully our secondary is ready, because I see them as a key to victory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;8M) Duggan doin’ damage&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still gives me the creepy-crawlies that Pitt is coming to the ACC.  I was / am still all for Syracuse, but I could have passed on Pitt and been fine. Still better than the other Big East dregs I suppose.   Moving on…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sean Duggan has played very well as a true frosh when he was throw into the mix earlier this year and stepped up making his first start in KPL’s absence last week.  He played well but we need him to step it up one more notch and be ready for the bright lights, big opponent, big stage game he’s about to play in.  We know what Keeks will come to the table with, and Devitto has been solid.  We need Duggan to dig deep and do damage (+5 points for alliteration, right?).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;9W) Playing for something&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HAHA get over it BCMike.. I actually see a value in Pitt over some of the other choices.&lt;br /&gt;The Bowl game is still a possibility, although its hard, its possible. I think the playing for something can keep these guys going. So here we go!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;10M) Get Pantale &amp;amp; Anderson involved EARLY&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know it seems like we say this every week…and frankly, I’m pretty sure we have.  However, if we’re going to try to run effectively on the ‘Noles, it means keeping Florida State from stacking the box and from having their LB’s and Safeties creep up to help the run.  Simply put, the easiest way to do that is to throw to the tight ends early and establish them as pass-catching threats.  We do that, it opens up a lot for us…and we’re going to need a lot opened up if we’re going to pull this upset.  Get ‘em involved, and get ‘em involved early&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;

  style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;1M) We won&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Call it a cop-out, I don&#39;t care. We finally won a game vs. a d-1 (FBS) opponent and I&#39;m flying sky high. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&#39;ll have specific points later, but to me the best part about this win is that WE FINALLY FUCKING WON A GAME.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2W) Run blocking&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Call it a weak Maryland d line, but it was exactly what we needed and called for in the keys to thegame, now ifthey would just involve the tight ends in the game outside of blocking&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3M) Deuce going for double-deuce&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deuce Finch was apparently just slow playing us all.  We all liked the kid, but I don’t think anyone had in mind his 243 yard, 2 TD performance.  As Eagle in Atlanta pointed out, it wasn’t a couple of big runs that inflated the stats but rather a constant grind of 7, 8, 9 yard carries with a 20 yarder sprinkled in here and there.  Yes, he had a couple fumbles—both in the red zone (one in ours, the other in theirs) which hurt us and could have let us get a blowout, but the weather was tough on all parties Saturday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4W) Duggan stepping up&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;   style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;With kpl out for now with an injury I thought Duggan did a good job filling in and gave a glimpse into the future. And as he gets bigger, I feel we are going to have a great player. Solid tackler and good instincts, a lot like another player that came from st x&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5M) Amidon end-around&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alex once again had another team under-estimating his speed as he took the pitchfrom Chase and turned the corner.  Great blocking by all, but terrific job by Alex turning on the jets and zooming past all of the defenders into the endzone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;6W) Getting to actually watch the game&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;   style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Saturday I was actually in Pittsburgh, as some of you know I travel frequently. Well the duke tech game was running over and I started watching the game on my phone, the guy running bettis sports bar saw me trying to watch, came by and put the BC game on for me, I knew it was going to be a good day then&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;7M) Keeks INT&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keeks of course turned in another stellar performance racking up tackles and diagnosing plays faster than a half-hour special of HOUSE, but getting a turnover is always great.  Keeks was WAY back in zone coverage and easily picked off O’Brien who was trying to force the issue.  I thought for a second he was going to find his way into the endzone for a pick-6, but the INT wasgreat itself.  Four turnovers on the day for BC, this one was the prettiest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8W) Sylvia INT&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To balance out the Keeks INT,  The Sylvia INT was what I thought put MO on our side. Sylvia not only made an athletic move to get the ball, but was able to bring the ball back so the Eagle would be able to make a move with the Ball on Offense. Not too shabby for a Freshman, Redshirted or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;9M) The Maryland Footballs&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Honestly, this game could have been different if Maryland hadn’t dropped so many passes.  Yes, I know it’s bad weather and you need to run to win, but numerous Terps dropped multiple balls vs. our Eagles. Conservatively I think there were 10 drops, but the real total is likely closer to 15.  I don’t know if the Maryland balls were some sort of new Under Armour Hyper-Suck model or what, but the Terps had an unbelievably hard time holding onto the ball Saturday…which is just fine by me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;10W)Ability to do the Best of the Best&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First and foremost , I am a BC fan, I hope that is 100% understood. So When BC loses I don&#39;t enjoy being clever on the worst of  the worst.. I would 1000x more rather to do the best of the best, and frankly its easier, my kind of memory is more agreeable with the wins, rather than the losses. So I tend to remember the big plays of BC a lot better than the ones against them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/feeds/4670100050237980606/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/10/best-of-best-vs-maryland.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/4670100050237980606'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8693132595760033104/posts/default/4670100050237980606'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bcdraft.blogspot.com/2011/10/best-of-best-vs-maryland.html' title='Best of the Best vs. Maryland'/><author><name>BCMike</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04259278849389650910</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-yQzMUXycV6-QlRyy8MV16yXaja07jms8sbafVvNwchLey59XMiQAG3NvB2nASjsXt5O4Xsz7CS884XZH_iSi77RAwyzPvWA1NxiIICqaqlepjVr7jtB9W5PB34veUcA/s1600-r/n682494226_932283_5319.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij740qUMxwQ_PRf4gCCDPb-EDuRluLs8PoNQraylgxro56s8oO2lCPWNhtkaLuLD4tqVzvKsbyl9rdW4J7WZ20m4BekJ79qil0LCgjWWJKdZOYUyup4CsvHThe5PKgTqz9vTwYLnUhDbb3/s72-c/header.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693132595760033104.post-8752016702566964478</id><published>2011-10-31T10:07:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-31T10:07:33.090-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Week 10 Ballot</title><content type='html'>    &lt;!-- SB Nation BlogPoll Top 25 Ballot --&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;blogpoll-rankings-ballot&quot;
