Thanks hscoach.
I've notice Fluker do a few O lay blocks this year. Is he not moving his feet fast enough or what?
I wish the fans would stay the whole game as well. Those guys deserve it.
Not movig his feet, being lazy at times. He is better than that.

Around Campus / The Quad / UNT vs Bama game notes:

First, let me send congrats to the Bama coaches and players on the win. I am sorry but it was again noting but a glorified scrimmage, like Kent State. in the air pretty well.
Offense:
The offense moved the ball pretty well against an undersized/undermanned team. They also had pretty good field position during the game. Bama did break off runs of 43, 58, 67 and 71 yards. This is great for the O, but probably won’t happen against an SEC caliber team. The O also took advantage of the loose coverage in the beginning of the game. The O left at least 10 points on the field with 2 missed field goals and then having to settle for a FG when AJ overthrew the rec in the end zone.
QB: AJ had a pretty good game. However, he missed a couple of open rec’s on deep ball. One was thrown too far, two were underthrown and one would have been a very good catch, if made, when he threw too far to the outside. This could have possibly been the rec’s fault by coming too far inside. I don’t know because I don’t know how the route is taught. It looked to me on a couple of high throws that AJ did not move his feet and threw across his body. I could also be wrong here. PS, I don’t think he had the same advantage in play calling early or either he chose to go down field more. I do know he had a chance to check down on one throw when it was almost picked off. Even the announcer said he stared down the rec. It looked to me that PS was guiding the ball instead of letting it go on his throws.
RB: They ran hard and they picked up the blitzes well most of the time. I would still like to see the RB’s work more side to side on their check down routes instead of just turning around.
REC: I have 9 different players catching the ball with only one going to the RB. The ball was spread around pretty well and they made yards after the catch. I know it is coming and so do you. They have run the wide rec screen enough that you should be ready for the pump and go by the blocking rec. It is strange that I didn’t see #83 make a catch after being a factor early. Bama does have some dept in this area. I will say, this week, again a rec redirected his route to help a scrambling QB. One important techniques was the rec’s catching the ball with their hands and not letting the ball get into their body.
OL: I know I am hard on them, but they were playing North Tx. They should have been able to run the ball at will and they did at times. However, Bama should be able with their size and athletic advantage to run and make 3rd and 3 or 3rd and 1. I will say I saw the combo blocks coming off too late which enabled UNT to make plays. Also, a couple or more of the scrambles by the QB was caused by DJF missing blocks. I don’t know if you noticed, but BJ started at LT, moved to RT, and even went and played center during the game. Some of the best run plays came when he was at RT and CK was at left. If my counts are correct TR and EL were hits only 5 total times behind the LOS. Also, when the Bama OL pulls they have the athletic ability to get to the point of attack. In my opinion they can still do a better job, especially with combo’s allowing players to get to the second level and communication which helps in picking up stunts. I know CK missed a block and looked confused on a run by EL when the D walked another player up.
Defense:
This was another solid game against an undermanned opponent. . What I look for in a game like this is player techniques and assignment football. Bama I do think the scheme was very simple for this game, not to show too much. I did notice the D giving a solid look, especially in the second half and then dropping to confuse the OL’s blocking assignments. I will say it looked as though some of the DL weren’t getting the calls as they were looking back with their hands in the air like what is the call. I thought, when throwing early the QB wanted to get rid of the ball in a hurry. There were very few times when UNT broke contain and got outside. There were a few, not many, missed tackles this game. I would like to congratulate the backups on their goal line stand. This was another game where Bama got no turnovers and gave up two. There were opportunities for int’s, but they would have been great catches.
DL: They played good assignment football. In other words they were in their gaps and getting off blocks. One major problem I saw was the people running stunts ran into each other. One has to go first and the other scrape off of him.
LB: The LB’s played well. I just want to mention NJ. He doesn’t get as much credit as I think he deserves. He is in when Bama thinks the other team is in a running situation and does a very good job getting to the football. One play that stood our was JH running with the UNT running back on the wheel route. It may have been one of these guys who busted the assignment in the beginning of the second half of who picked up the back out on the blitz. I could have also been a DB’s assignment.
DB: It looks to me that the DB’s are taught just to keep everything underneath and don’t allow any big plays. I say this after watching LSU and UF and seeing their DB’s right on the hip of the rec’s. I would think when Bama is sending pressure the DB, especially CB’s would press and redirect the rec and throw off the timing of the routes. I mentioned this last year, but Bama does not really jam rec’s like other teams.
Special teams: Here, 6 points were left on the field. I keep saying it but #6, #5, #91, #3, and #33 keep doing a good job on special teams. They are a big part of the kick off cover team. Also, #11 made a big block on the punt return by MM which may have gone unnoticed. I would like to see a couple of changes. First, MM fair catch when Bama is going after the punt. Second, I would like to see TR taken off the kickoff return team. Put #22 back there. On the FG block, UNT committed the cardinal sin. The wing allowed a player to come inside when he blocked out.
Penalties: Again there were few penalties. The major one was the pass interference in the end zone, but Bama still held them out.
Finally, I wish the fans had stayed to watch those guys who don’t get on the field as much. I am sure it would mean a lot to see a packed stadium when they are playing.
Please feel free to comment.
Good Luck and Roll Tide Roll

I do watch those games. I think LSU may have a better D than Bama. The reason I say this is their D line seems to be stronger than Bama's and their secondary looks just as strong. I think Bama has the edge in LB's and schemes. I really need to watch more to get a better idea. That is just an early observation..

Does anyone know anybody who has Ark and LSU tickets for sale?
I know someone that might have Ark tickets but they won't be face value. ' How much over do you think they may be?

Too me CF looks like he tries to muscle up when he kicks. Too me kicking is like a golf swing. When you try to muscle up on a golf swing you don't hit the ball as far.

I am not sure if it is the height of the punt or the shortness that is keeping them from returning. Less field to cover on a short pun. My concern is he can' really flip field position.

I could be wrong, but if you go back and watch the PSU game: Remember the play when I think it was KN who ran the under route for the first down. It looked to me as if the outside rec was looking inside at the route as well as the other rec who cleared the way for KN. It is like the route was taged and they all knew they were not going to get the ball.

Thanks, those guys have done well on special teams. #3 make blocks on the punting team and tackles on the kick off team He caught my eye the first week. If I remember correctly #6 is near the ball a lot also.

I know I have mentioned this before and since I have coached rec's, I really hate seeing this. Has anyone or does anyone notice that it looks as if some rec's know they are not going to get the ball and don't run routes full speed or look at the rec who is expected to get the ball? I would love to see a tight and wide shot of the games to better understand what they are doing. It would give me a better idea of what route combo's they are running.
