Timmy Jernigan is a man, plus FSU does not run strictly a 3-4. There is NFL talent all over the secondary and Telvin Smith is a playmaker at LB. Defense won't be a problem for FSU, if there is a way they can lose a game it is in pass protection as it's been sloppy the past few games. However earlier in the season the line was unstoppable so who knows.

That is exactly why I love him, but I consider him a slower Lacey with more power. His spin move is just as sick though.

OSU has an O-line that I could run through. When they show the camera angle behind OSU he has legit 5 yards of space to run through often
Reminds me alot of ours last year. God I hate this zone blocking shite

If Auburn would have beaten LSU they would be in, because they lost, they aren't. It's pretty simple really.

Go cry about it

I thought about that too, but how Winston throws and how suspect OSU secondary is I don't think it will be a problem.

If OSU had to play Alabama, LSU, A&M, Georgia, and Ole Miss all in less than a 2-month span, do you really think they would be in contention right now?


It think OSU beats Ole Miss, beats UGA likely, has a toss up with A&M because the defenses would not stop one another, and would be worse than Bama. So Auburn did about exactly how I think OSU would do, but pulled off miracles in two games (Bama missed fgs like in 2011 against LSU. I mean Auburn has given up tons of points in their wins, and scores a lot. They run the ball well.

Andre Williams rushed for 150 yards against Florida State, I'd like to think him and Hyde are very similar Running Backs. I think OSU has the advantage in the offensive line though between the two.

FSU will have their hands full with Hyde and the other rushers. This is the best offensive line OSU has had since those Orlando Pace teams. If we get there I would love to see that match up.

Auburn will have beaten two top five teams if they beat Mizzou, plus beat Georgia, and JFF. Lost to LSU early in the season when they were still ranked highly.

Ohio State is a joke.

I think FSU is legit all over the board, but their D-line is a little undersized when running a 3-4, only because Jernigan is undersized as a NT when they are in that scheme.

If there is a way they lose a game, it is the time honored run the ball against them, grind it out, have Winston throw an int or two (which he has surprisingly done a lot of lately), and capitalize on it. They are extremely impressive

FSU runs more 3-3-5 and 3-2-6 type defenses as opposed to the traditional 3-4.

I will worry about FSU if OSU beats MSU. They are scary but they are somewhat far off

Yeah I feel like Pruitt has run a very similar type of defense to the one that Rob Ryan has implemented in NOLA this season. A lot of athletes on the field and not in a traditional formation

I'm not sure how well this works against a team like OSU, or Auburn, for that matter. College offenses have changed so much into that spread pass crap that power running teams are few and far between, but good ones win a lot of games.

I would be thrilled if FSU ran a 3-2-6 against OSU for example (on 1st and 2nd down)
