Good things: Defense played out of their mind. Mariota is a danger even at 90% Bad: Johnstone out with an ACL Undisciplined. We need to cut down on penalties.
I was not expecting this type of game. Mariota's legs were basically our whole offense tonight. We were obviously suffering with his injury, but now that he's almost came back to form, we still didn't roll quite like we used to. And our defense totally shut them down, I was not expecting that either, since it's looked like crap since the Stanford loss. That little ticker at the bottom had DAT as the #2 RB in the draft....really?? He's not even the #2 running back on our team. And Huff should be ranked higher than #30 for WRs, he'll be a good NFL WR with his toughness.
not many are on the same level as Chip. But if you based job security on comparing to Chip, all but about 4 College Coaches would be on the Hot Seat.
I agree, but if the team wants to win a NC, I'm not sure if Helf is the guy that's going to get it done. I didn't really understand it until after he was gone, but Chip is one of those coaches that inspires a team. They take on his personality. He's one of the most arrogant bastards in football, but it works for him. I'm truly bummed that we didn't get a championship while he was here.
As the NFL is currently finding out. I think the Eagles are going to be legit contenders in the very near future. I don't know if they have the juice to get far in this postseason, but next year or the year after, Chip will have them contending. The guy is just too good.
