  1. If im not mistaken tonights game is being held at what was formally known as Joe Robby Stadium, home of the Miami Dolphins
  2. Best case senerio would be him concentrating on getting his grades up and hopefully joing up with the mean green during the spring semester, so that we can redshirt him next year and then have four great years left
  3. No i will not let you look at any of MY CHAMPIONSHIP RINGS!!!!
  4. Hell im kinda proud they even know what color pictures are much less a little paint shop! I do beleive this is breaking ground for our fine single tooth friends over at MT.
  5. I know i will proabably get hell for saying this, Although Dickey plans on using all three QB's in this game, but i think once Meager takes the field Saturday night he wont allow another NT QB to take a meaningful snap in a game for the next four years. Once we hit MTSU in the mouth there going to fold!!!! NT 52 MUTS 7
  6. I know its different becuase its just a game, but there is some things in NCAA 2006 that show what kind of team is going to be that year. For those of you that play, you will notice that if you turn off fatigue so that the starters can play every down and you dont have to substitute in the second string any, NT can play with just about anybody you throw at them. As stated earlier, our first string can play with the bigboys but eventually they wear down and our depth doesnt compare to that of the big BCS boys.
  7. Ive seen a similar defense used against Texas Tech, i think it was a 2-3-6, but i like the idea of a 2-5-4. All you have to do here is walk two lbs up like stand up d ends (much like the 3-4) and force those big slow o lineman to chase our lbs around the field trying to block them
  8. Have we heard anything about the Jersery's latley?
  9. Moot are you saying that the deal is done, and that we are essentially looking for another opponet to make up our 11th game?
  10. You can bet were going to run the ball at least 40 times this Saturday. If they allow the same 5.3 average they considered good then we will have close to 215 rushing yards. I wonder if they will think that is good?
  11. I would like to see both J-Mo and Cobbs in the pro set, Jmo left and cobbs right, a handoff to jmo off tackle to the right with cobbs as a pitch man, MTSU wouldnt know what hit em
  12. Sounds to me like until we show we cant stop them one on one, we line up in single coverage on the outside and blitz the hell out of the QB. Lets see what the kid can do under pressure and lets see what out CB's are really made of.
  13. Your not seeing things, as that is what it says, but it has to be wrong.
  14. Personally i would like to see it move to San Antonio. Realistically my guess is it will end up in Baton Rouge with the Sugar Bowl.
  15. I was mistaken. Auburn has gone to New Balance this year. Tigers ditch Nike for New Balance Friday, July 22, 2005 CHARLES GOLDBERG News staff writer AUBURN -- Nike's calling with a request. Could somebody please tell Carnell Williams and Ronnie Brown to quit taping up their football shoes? They're covering up the Swoosh, and everybody knows you're not supposed to cover up the Swoosh. The Swoosh is supposed to be in every photo. It's the logo. It's money. It's corporate America. But players like "spatting up" their shoes. It's a fashion statement. Plus, Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville said he would not risk an ankle, foot or leg injury for a logo. So the university and Nike parted ways. This season, the university and a different shoe company have come together in a new venture. Auburn will be the only team in the country wearing New Balance football cleats, as the shoe manufacturer gets into the world of big-time college football. New Balance sold Tuberville on what it says is a new idea to fit each player individually, and that it could provide a new, wider shoe for today's bigger athletes. Tuberville was also intrigued by the idea of being just a little bit different. "Having Auburn wear them is going to launch the whole program for us," said Kent Richard, an associate product manager for New Balance. "We've given them a lot of attention." New Balance is providing some 400 shoes, including football shoes, training shoes and lifting shoes, and almost all are individually fitted. New Balance isn't giving the university a traditional shoe contract and Auburn gets no endorsement money, but New Balance provides a virtually endless supply of shoes. Nike provided a limited number of free shoes and nominal endorsement money because Auburn's primary apparel contract is with Russell Athletics. "Almost every other Division I program gets paid quite a bit to wear their shoes," Richard said. "Coach Tuberville just wanted shoes that fit the best. "Auburn is going to be our main focus - learning with them and launching with them. We're changing the model. It's really about the shoes." New Balance is getting in the market with this selling point: The widest fitted shoes in the business. There are the standard sizes, to be sure, but there's also the 18EEEE boat. Auburn's biggest shoes: 16EEs, worn by three players. "You just don't go pull one out of the box," Tuberville said. "These big guys," Richard said, "have never been fitted very well." New Balance will use Auburn as its prototype team, whether it's fitting a foot or in marketing. But the company is hardly a neophyte in the shoe business. It has made all sorts of athletic shoes for more than 40 years. "Everybody knows New Balance has had the top of the line running and walking shoe," Tuberville said. Now, it's going to see how it fares against Nike, Reebok and Adidas in football. Richard said New Balance has made a "huge investment" in making Auburn its first football school. "A lot of people questioned why we got in this market," Richard said. "It's not that big of a market and it's dominated by the Big Three. But we decided to bring in a different story. We wanted to fit these bigger athletes. We're finding a huge need in the marketplace." New Balance has already custom fit each Tigers player. Auburn began wearing the shoes in the spring. And Richard said he would not get upset if the running backs tape over the logos again. "That's not our style," he said.
  16. If im not mistaken Auburn last year went with New Balance and looked what it did for them
  17. Now Moot, that replay seems to me like a double negative.
  18. I love the 6pm starts as well, but i think as the weather truns in November we should look at starting these games around the 3 o'clock hour to recieve as much heat as possible and still give time to all those wonderfull tailgating activities.
  19. Well i agree that we should not have to worry about a 1/2 million shortfall, we also have to remember that we are a small school and all the money that is raised my the MGC is used to try and compete at the D-I Level. Our athletic budget is over 12 million dollars, i dont know what the other schools in the SBC spend but i would be willing to bet were in the top two or three and maybe #1
  20. If i was going to guess i would say that both bowls will end up being played at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge
  21. What would the chances of bringing Utah State back in here to play this Saturday?
  22. No matter what we do, i dont think it will be looked on as distastful becuase of whats going on, its not like all of college football is shutting down because of this thing, just those few colleges that were greatly affected by the storm.
  23. My guess is its gone forever or we make LSU our 12th game for next year.
  24. Do we have time to find another team to play. I know that most teams already have someone scheduled but what about some of those other teams that im sure are going to be affected by this tradgedy? Im sure some of those teams will be looking for games.
  25. ESPN is confirming that it is cancelled
