The PAC12 THREAD v.2

[socaljim242]

The real point is only a total and complete fucktard brings up physical bullshit on a forum. Mamba didn't call him out, he started that stuff. You can call each other what you want. That's what happens on forums, but when you start that tough guy junk you just look like a complete idiot. I really don't give two shits what the guy did or does outside of this forum. If he keeps acting like a dumb ass I'll keep treating him like he is one.

Shut up Meg - get me a beer son. ?

Sorry but the guy was being and ass. It's not in me to say nothing. I know I wont have the last word because the guy lives here but I don't care I'm going to say something. It's a freaking sports board. Say my coach sucks my teams sucks say I'm delusional but don;t act like you're some internet bad ass because you have thousands of posts .
Anyway, lets move on to football. No more from me. I don;t hold grudges so. It's done.

good to hear that you are over it. Now, moving forward, quit being so sensitive and worrying about what other posters do or how much they post. If you can't hang with the big boys in this PAC thread you shouldn't post here and stick to your team boards.

You don't respond to pms about trolling team pages. But you did stop doing it. So that is step 1.

Step 2, is line 1 in my post here.

so just relax, like you stated, it's a sports message board.

 

[WhiteMamba]

sheesh Beavs. Sacramento State has your number in baseball too?

 

[mrwallace2ku]

^Didn't like this series when I saw it coming down the pike...doesn't surprise me to see the results.

Win the series and I'll forget about that "L".

Baseball's all about finishing healthy and having a good pitching staff come the playoffs, nobody will remember this loss, cept you.

To answer your Q tho, L@@Ks like Sac State loves playing us no matter what the sport is.

Ok, I am bored already today. Finished all my work that I had up until I teach at noon.

I was thinking, every team in the PAC has some challenges that are well known to cope with this off-season. For instance UW has a new coach no QB yet and is replacing a stud RB. Arizona has to find a QB, ASU's defense is very young etc.

Stanford has to replace a very good RB and players such as Reynolds, Skov and Murphy on the defensive side.

My question to you all is, what is one of the less publicized (as far as the major sports press) but most concerning challenges your team faces this off-season?

For instance my main concerns for Stanford is the O-line and safety positions. Stanford is only returning only one starter on the O-line. All four of the new starters are sophomores. Granted the entire line will be comprised of the 3*-5* haul of O-line prospects in the 2012 class. However, O-line more than any position depends on the unit gelling as a whole. Given the spring game of Stanford, this could be a down year for the team in terms of opening holes for the RB and protecting Hogan.

 

[mrwallace2ku]

Not sure, but this feels like the most pissy and bitchy day ever on the Pac thread.

Maybe everyone bled out today and will be ready to douche in the morning and get back to normal.

Probably NOT!

Obviously for USC, the sanctions are the most visible issue. However, there are certain positions where those sanctions have caused us to be thinner than others. Kiffin tried to recruit and use his redshirts in a way that sort of "rotated" which positions we would be thin at over the schollie reduction years.

This year, the concern is the o-line and db's. If we suffer too many injuries at either of those spots, we could be looking at having to go with true freshmen and/or walk-on's.

I'm less concerned with the o-line than the db's. The uptempo offense that Sark installed can help hide weaknesses in the o-line simply because of the pace. In a conference with the qb's and receivers that the PAC has, weaknesses in the defensive backfield tend to get exploited pretty badly.

O-line and the D-line...ALL starts here and goes to shit from there.

Special teams. Last year they were terrible. The coverage teams gave up too many big returns, the return teams couldn't block anybody, I believe ASU had the worst punting average in the country and every punt was an adventure with our long snapper. Graham put a major emphasis on special teams in spring practice and brought in a new special teams coach so hopefully they will improve next season.

Pfftt. That's it? Hell, that's like saying I love you compared to things he has said to me and my team over the years.

 

[WhiteMamba]

Oh you guys.... You are making me blush.

UWs challenges:

New coaching staff. I'm not concerned with the defense in this category as Wilcox spent two years installing the same scheme he learned as an assistant at Boise St.

Offense I'm more concerned since Petersen runs more of a spread, while Sark was heavy pro-style. While I'm sure Petsrsen will work with the strengths handed to him, I still think the learning curve for the offense will be much higher. The O will be much more "work in progress" in 2014. Luckily we have 4 OOC games this year because we play Hawaii so that's nice timing to work on things before PAC play starts.

New QB and new primary RB.

Miles and Stringfellow. Will they be back, if so, will Myles, who did start the Oregon St. game and played well end up the starter in week 1 or still suspended. Stringfellow would of been one of our starting WOs. If back, when does he play again.

WR/TE. Nice looking group. No real concerns there. Will really help with the QB transition.

RB. No Sankey, but some talent there so expect it to be more of a committee approach in 2014, but not really worried.

Oline. Filled with experienced Jrs and Srs. Not worried for 2014 barring an injury apocalypse.

Dline. Filled with experienced and young maulers. Not worried " "

LBs. Looking good.

DB. That is what I see as the biggest challenge this year. Lots of new faces there and were talking about the pass happy PAC. I'm expecting to see Budda Baker and others from this recent recruit class out there in 2014. And will be expected to step up fast.

ST. No real problem there, but there are some questions about performance from our FG kicker.

Our DB. That's the biggest under the radar challenge I see for 2014. That and we could end up starting the season with a QB who hasn't taken any college game snaps yet.

 

[WizardHawk]

ESPN has a show on now called 2014 draft academy. Bishop Sankey is supposed to be on it. Dawg fans might want to hit that or DVR it or otherwise grab it later.

Oh, it has Marqise Lee too.

 

[WizardHawk]

Shit, as hard as it is to admit, that story about Marqise Lee was pretty cool. Seems like a good kid and glad he found his way out of the poor family situation he was born into.

 

[WizardHawk]

Sankey and Price were both on this episode. Not sure who else will be on the next ones, but there are 4 one hour shows in this series and this was the first one.
