How refreshing: a video of a horrific hit not timed to “BOOM!!!111″ by some nu-metal band so bad we refuse to remember the name. Though Ohio State ended up winning this game 44-0 in as bad an asswhipping as you can really hand out to a conference foe, Minnesota peeked through the gloom and snatched victory on at least one play.
In what has been an extremely international day for EDSBS, we continue that theme with a reader submitted lip lord straight from the United Kingdom, where reader Rusty is lurking these days. He convinced Steve from Kent to pose for a fine mustache photo, which Rusty dutifully sent to us.
Thanks to Rusty, and thanks to handsome bastard Steve for being a good sport and sharing his fine follicular wonder with the world. Happy Mustache Wednesday, motherfuckers!
Reader Atomic Dog sends us this excellent satellite photo of what’s truly causing all those fires in South Georgia and Florida, composed by some MSU-lovin’ genius named Brent. If you had a mustache, sir, you would be our Mustache of the Day. That’s how awesome this picture is:
Marcus Thomas’ training techniques: set to light the NFL world on fire! For a larger version, click here.
No one ever dies in college football–they just coerce a buddy into hiring them by reminding them of some particularly incriminating pictures they still have in a safe deposit box in Beaumont, Texas. (”Tijuana! ‘83! The one with the fake arm? REMEMBER???)
Coaching shuffles, incriminating Mexican vacation photos aside, involve retreads and n00bs, mostly hot young things snatched up from smaller programs on their way to finding their level, whether it’s an unstoppable rise to NFL majordomo status all the way from Weber State (Bobby Petrino) or an ugly verification of your minor league status (Hal Mumme, New Mexico State.)
So looking around the offseason of coaching shuffles, poaches, and other HR issues you’ll probably have to watch an excruciating video just to talk about legally in the company of a non-HR department person. Today, we talk about the really glam department: offensive coordinators.
Chip Kelly, Oregon.
Status: n00b (relatively speaking). A former offensive coordinator at D-1AA New Hampshire, 42 year old Chip Kelly would be on the upside of the career parabola at the point, moving up from a very successful stretch at New Hampshire. His teams there, from our extensive research on Google, “scored lots of points.” More specifically, they averaged over 400 yards a game seven of the last eight years, broke all previous school records, and finished second in the nation in total offense in 2005 behind Vince Young. (Listed all by himself of course.)
Kelly’s style will be–don’t drop your donut in shock–”spread,” which was supposedly what Gary Crowton had going on at Oregon prior to his departure for LSU. We hope his version of the spread doesn’t involve yanking two quarterbacks around without rhyme or reason, since this central feature of the Oregon offense didn’t work out all that well last year, excepting sweet field goal fakes.
A tantalizing peek into the possibilities of the run game, as seen here in a shotgun sweep to a wideout in motion.
Another guarantee: like many OCs, Kelly isn’t afraid to let one receiver hog the ball. David Ball, UNH wide receiver, broke Jerry Rice’s all-time TD record during his time in Kelly’s offense.
Kelly slides into the seat formerly occupied by… (more…)
We’ve had a very global 24 hours here at EDSBS. First, last night’s edition of EDSBS Live! featured a call from Kleph, our Peruvian correspondent, who promptly received a interhemispheric fuckin’ siren for his troubles. Second, we received this picture from reader Eric, a Bulldog fan who evidently holds no grudges against a blog run by Florida fans, and proves it by repping our good name in front of King Jayarvarman’s modest day spa in Cambodia:
Who says Georgia doesn’t travel?
Thanks to Eric, who rules rules rules. Here’s hoping you laid off the “chicken with pot” we saw on the menu in Siem Reap. It makes riding your piddly little bike around the vast temple complex harder than it really should be.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.
