I would love to see us get back to the feed the studs mantra.
Someone mentioned having Bolin at qb with Jackson at slot and Reggie at hb.

Not necessarily a trick play, but a package to open up the field and get Jackson nand Reggie in space with the ball.

Teams would have to adjust to it because of the arm and quick reads of Bolin.

Staples and Quick split wide and Crum at TE.

Great spread in my opinion.

That could be a very scary backfield. Just imagine the myriad of trick plays that could be worked out using that personnel. You need to pick up the phone and dial this into CBP.....this is an awesome idea.....I mean it. Hard to believe no one on the staff has this figured yet.

Do we have any stats on that yet?o_O

To get to 8-4.....gotta take it one game at a time. Keep improving in every aspect....especially the 'O'.

2 at home....stay focused. 2 on the road......play up to maximum potential and bring home the 'W's. I would still be happy at 7-5 as long as uk is one of the 3 'W's.

It has to start with the offensive line. It just has to improve or we're going to struggle to score points. The defense is solid and as long as they continue to perform at a high level, we'll be in ball games. In order to beat all the teams left on the schedule, the offensive line MUST improve.

It may not be pretty, but we will beat Syracuse and Virginia at home. Pitt, at their place, will be a tough game. We will need an effort like the NC State game to win there. UK, rivalry game, who knows. They are starting their annual implosion, so I like our chances there. Running the table is very possible, but we need to play well and stay healthy. Go Cards!

Spread them out and use Bolin to deliver the ball.

Mix in power run set with LJ and Jeremy or Ratcliff.

Play action out of the power run set.


Really can't understand why we are not seeing this.
I don't get it either, but then again, I'm not a multi million dollar a year paid college football coach. :D

The O-LINE has to get better for 8-4 to become a reality. If the O-line improves, we win 8 games before going to another bowl game. JMO

If wespread it out a little and give Bolin quick reads it helps the line to not have to hold so the qb doesn't have to wait forever to make a decision.
It also allows us the option to run or pass without being transparent.

With Jackson not being able to take a snap from the pistol, we are one dimensional and screwed. Bench him from the qb role until he learns the craft. Put him in as slot receiver and use his speed.

Well 1st of all, we need for the O-Line to STOP with ALL the False Starts...Then we need to STOP all the After The Play Personal Foul BS...Receivers NEED to CATCH The Ball when its In Their Hands...Then we need for the Defense to STOP Trying to Rip The Ball Out...WRAP-UP and TACKLE...WAY TOO MANY BIG PLAYS happen because of this!!!

:cool:

I hope that all of the bonehead plays come to an end and that they wrap up as you said and stop trying to rip the ball out.

We need some fire.... Players playing angry. We are too nice.

Since Lamar os going to be the guy, I hope he learns to take snaps from under center and stops flinging the ball downfield in double coverage.

Today, we witnessed Bobby say "I want to win this year, not set everything on a prospect"

We are going 8-4
