🏈 GAME THREAD 🏈 WEEK THREE: NCAA/SEC Games of the Week.

[Scrape&Search1032]

I've also seen names like Brent key, and Clark lea. I don't see either of them leaving their alma mater to go to Florida.

Defense? Defense you say?

The average points scored by SEC teams yesterday? A little over 38.

Cool story yesterday about Eric Morris, the QB whisperer that coaches at North Texas. It was a good read and then last night I saw what the kid (and UNT) did to Washington State. Geez, this kid is pretty darn good. This coach is legit and… from the Mike Leach tree!

The defenses in Ark vs Ole Miss were great last night! The last time I saw such defense was at a middle school game last week.

Scroll back in this thread. I pointed to UArk fielding an offense this season. Through three they are averaging 50 points per game. Contrast that with LSU who isn't averaging half of that: 20 points per game.

One thing that game did demonstrate is the need Bama has right now: defensive line help. Neither team has a good one (and wouldn't you know, Bama won't face either.)

I've said I thought Clark Lea was doing a good job at Vandy. This isn't a knock against him. He is doing a heck of a job.

It's my opinion if we see Pavia go down with injury Vandy crashes like UofSC did last night. Their offense runs through him. But Pavia doesn't account for the "culture change" we've seen at Vandy. The publicity? Yes. But what changed inside the walls of their football offices?

I stumbled across something this weekend I didn't know. Who is working with Lea the same way we've saw ex-coaches work with Saban? Like Butch (last UT coach to beat UGA.)

You have to go back in the memory vault to 2010 and four or so years following. Do you guys remember Minnesota suddenly showing up as a competitive team in the B1G? It was a stretch highlighted by wins over Michigan and their head coach being awarded B1G Coach of the Year one season. What, or who, managed to change that culture at Minnesota?

The same coach is the right hand man to Clark Lea at Vandy: Jerry Kill.

I knew Kill was there last year. I was wondering if he was still working with them.
I knew he was at New Mexico St when they beat the Barn.

I knew Kill was there last year.

I had no clue. I may have heard that; didn't register.

I heard someone say Pavia was a "California kid" yesterday. It didn't sound right so I looked him up on Vandy's roster. He's not. I was a little surprised, and I don't know why, to see how many different states are represented on their football roster. That led me to the coaching staff and I saw him ...

It's one corner of the nation to the other.

The local radio show has Lea call in occasionally during the season and he’s always good to listen to. He was explaining this last week how when he arrived, one of the first goals he wrote down was to field a team that people would want to watch. He knew they were the bottom of the conference and often a laughing stock. He usually shares some cool insight into his head and into the program.
