Re: Bulldogs Pound Owls
Correct me if I am wrong, Chappell has not seen much time yet either. He is also a very big body who I was excited about when he signed. He could add some push on defense as well.

Look…..715 Yards is completely unacceptable….I don't care if it's Georgia, Alabama, MTSU, or Presbyterian College…You do not give up almost 3/4 of 1000 total yards to ANY program! It's becoming painfully apparent that Howard and the entire regime let this program decay into oblivion after a slight peak. There are guys on both sides of the ball who are not talented enough to be playing D-1 football on scholly or walk-in(let the David Kooi example be a microcosm), the only reason they are suiting up is because they are the best of the worst and with out them there would be no football team. I was glad to see this team fight for a solid first half but the program is in need of a complete gutting of the last regime. I'm thankful for everything Howard has done for this program and it would not exist without him but like I said complete control and accountability was lost over the past two seasons. I will still watch and support FAU football and even use the Rec. Center as an Alumni member but we deserve better. I SUPPORT & BELIEVE IN CARL PELINI!
You are really blaiming the defensive performance on HS??? C'mon.
Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

Re: Bulldogs Pound Owls
I say we should just SHUT UP and PLAY THE GAMES! I beleive the pre game talk may have influenced UGA into playing their starters more than usual vs. a body bag team just to show us they can play some football at UGA - they can run AND pass pretty much whenever they want too! So far this year we have not really stopped anyone which is what concerns me.
That and if passing the ball is working vs. an opponent - KEEP IT UP. Screw having balance, MOVE THE BALL AND SCORE! Especially when your D looks as bad as it does so far! I don't care who we play from here on, we are gonna have to score 35 or more to win guys (AND COACHES!).

I was excited about this guy too but he just has never got it together enough to be a starter. He might have been in on certain games without being a starter - and who knows, he might have even been pretty awesome - but it's just kinda hard to keep track of superstars on the line (for me, anyway).

Coach P. was bitching about playing a game vs. a team that does not play a spread style, so those games do not really help us… I say we should just SHUT UP and PLAY THE GAMES!
He wasn't bitching. He was just making a point about the incompatible offensive styles.

Are we? This is as stupid as most of your posts. Ridiculous excuse. COACH these kids how to tackle and play proper football. Pelini is a defensive minded coach and the ex D coordinator of Nebraska…there is NO excuse to play as poorly as we did, especially blaming the previous coach.

All of the upperclassman on this team are Howard's guys. I'm not saying it's Howard's fault or he didn't care or even that ALL of his recruits are not talented but after he announced his retirement at the start of last season there were absolutely no standards up held. The vast majority of last year's coaching staff were more occupied with finding other jobs. So, in retrospect we are still trying to correct the mistakes from 2 seasons ago!
