Re: Line Opens Tulane 3.5 pts. > UAB

No, the oddsmakers don't watch. Their job is to put the line where as many bet on the favorite as is bet on the underdog. Because UAB lost to Coastal Carolina, a lot of gamblers will shy away from them. I would think the Blazers put forth a much better effort this week at home against us. I hope oth...

Re: Tulane washes over Nicholls St. 42-17

I hope the coaches talk to Corey Dauphine about hydration, and that he's ready to play a full game in Birmingham. I love to see him run wild versus the Blazers.

There is no difference between AAC and 90% of the P5.

Greenies really let the conference down last week. :roll:
Greenies lost in OT to a team that was 6 point road favorites.

I don't know who is who in women's volleyball. Have we played any teams that are ranked? Is Tulane ranked?

Re: New facilities announcement

Having been on campus in April and checked out the old UC, the food options are way better than my undergrad years. Then again, the kids on campus today will say the same thing 30 years from now, I'm sure. When I was an undergrad you could use your meal card at Bruff, which was most common, or you c...

Re: Nicholls St. Game Thread

Ryan Griffin was and is light years better than Banks. Our o-line was constantly told by Griff at the line of scrimmage what the D was doing and what blocking scheme to use. Banks either hasn't mastered the RPO the way many others running it (including a true Frosh from Wake) have, or the coaching s...

Re: Wave beats the Wave ,loses to Wake Forest in OT 23-17

We couldn’t run the ball because our Offensive Line in the first half couldn’t block anyone. As for Banks on the read option, am I the only one who watches this offense and thinks the coordinator precalls what read he is going to make. He is either the worst read option qb ever and is making the wr...

Re: Wave beats the Wave ,loses to Wake Forest in OT 23-17

Ok, after having a couple of days to digest what took place, and having watched the game (with the remote and ability to fast forward) again, here's my takeaways: 1. Our offensive line played well in the first half, and wore down to the point where it was downright bad in the 4th quarter. 2. Our pa...

Re: Wave beats the Wave ,loses to Wake Forest in OT 23-17

I do not debate that in the second half, our O line was like a matador. Ole! But in the first half it held it's own. I don't care if you had great seats or were in the GD Blimp, if you watch the replay or tape it doesn't change the fact that IN THE FIRST HALF Banks was rarely pressured, and stood f...

Re: Wave beats the Wave ,loses to Wake Forest in OT 23-17

Willie and I watched the same game. We both felt we couldn't run block or pass protect. Yeah, right. Then I want what you're drinking or smoking. WATCH THE FIRST HALF. You're wrong, In the second half we didn't block. But you're changing the argument in your typical style because you are wrong.
