🏈 Charleston Southern HC's funny realism...

@Finebaum: of the weekend: the Charleston Southern Coach just told me the 50 points his team is getting in Tuscaloosa won't be enough

Looks like he may be modeling a little of Coach Bryant's "po-mouthin" methodology ..

On being an Awbren tune-up game for Bama:

@Finebaum: "I tried to call Coach Saban to ask if he wanted us to put in any Auburn plays but haven't heard back" - @CoachChadwell

They apparently have a pretty solid team statistically in FCS, but this ain't FCS...

"The Bucs have a 3-4 scheme, and at 6’3", 250 pounds, the nose guard is roughly the same size as Alabama linebacker Denzel Devall.
That’s going to be a problem for the visiting team, especially considering that all of the linebackers will be giving up at least 20 pounds to running back Derrick Henry"

Also grabbed this quote from the same article by their HC on the prospect of facing King Henry, which I thought was funny:

“He’s obviously a phenomenal player, may win the Heisman. One of our current players was a high school teammate, so we obviously hear a lot about him. It’s going to take a complete team effort to try and corral him because he has a combination of size and speed that you don’t see at our level. If we don’t fit things right and don’t tackle he’s going to be able to take it to the house…"

“They’ve texted and talked and we’ve asked him to tell him to take it easy on us and only play a quarter, but he won’t jive. He says coach won’t let him do that right now. We’re trying to get him to get sick or have the flu, but he won’t go for it.”

I guess King Henry just don't jive, who knew?

Lol. Seems like a great coach, great to play for.

Aren't they a top 10 team in their league?

Yeah, they're #9 with a first place vote in the STATS FCS poll and 8 in the coach's like was said. They did beat then #1 Coastal Carolina.

They have the nation's top-ranked defense at the FCS level (yielding 252.9 ypg and 4.30 per play - 101.2 rush yards).

They returned 9 offensive starters (the whole OL) and run a pretty good option game.

Should be a big win, just hope it doesn't turn into GA Southern pt 2. We don't need the D too tired to curb stomp the Barn over turkey day holidays.

Where's the 'Rackout the Buccaneers' thread?

I wonder if they have any fans to troll our boards

That's what we're going to get. This ain't Western Carolina. This is a good football team and they are going to take their best shot. It'll be an ugly win over a scrappy team and I'll take that 50 points all day long. I'm expecting something like 38-10 and I just hope we can come out of the game healthy. I'd wish for getting up big early so we can play some young-'uns and rest the starters but it won't happen. Typical "cupcake" game before Auburn: sloppy, ugly, uninspired play that keeps the first team on the field well into the 3rd quarter. Saban will have plenty to pitch a hissy fit about next week.
