Goal Line Stand

No doubt. The people criticizing our D need to take this into account. Especially the stupid national sports media types that just to drive-by reporting by cherry picking a few stats and lobbing grenades. The D is a lot more organized than last year and seems to be improving each week. Unlike last year, the problems look fixable.

I don't think the D Line is underachieving. They just aren't dominant like in the past. I just don't think the LBs are giving them much support in the run game yet. On plays where the Line clogs the middle and the RB can't burst through a hole, the LBs do a good job cleaning up. On plays where a hole opens up. however, the LBs either miss, bounce off, or get there late. If they can come around, we could be very good in a few games. That and if the offense can keep them off the field for a while.

Jones completely bailed out the whole team with that ridiculously athletic play. the MSU player was alone in the end zone and everything else was just a mass of destruction at the line of scrimmage. the qb would have been better served lobbing the pass.

Did anyone else notice....MSU has the ball on our 20 with just over a minute to go and our LBs are having a little conference apparently trying to figure out what to do when MSU snapped the ball and ran an option to our 2 yd line with no LBS IN SIGHT.

All I can say is that if our season comes together that goal line stand will go down in Tiger lore as one of the all-time greats.

Lord willing we'll be telling our grand kids about it.
