WILDCAT TOO FANCY---BRING BACK SINGLE WING!!!

What a gloriously random highlight reel.

Damn – I’m getting excited now. Hey you, little dude two seats over, here’s a 10, go to the concession stand, get me a large coke, pour most of it out on the way back and while you’re at it, get yourself a pack a nabs.

This may be a weak attempt for Monk to secure a “spin off”.

I want to go climb a mountain in the Soviet Union for some reason…

Holy shit, the ref fires a pistol at 6:40!

If Houston Nutt can change and Darren McFadden can change, then everybody can change!

New goal in life: Do something so awesome that it deserves the Single Wing Theme Song as background music.

Finally, a little maize and blue love. Too bad the highlights are from 40 years ago.

Reminds me of my intermeural days at tOSU. Let’s stick 7 white farm guys out there, come up with the stupidest play possible that shouldn’t work, And then win anyways, in the hardest division, for three years.

Torn cartilage? Nothing that steroids and fan mail can’t fix.

uhhhhh…. “intermeurals”? you just put English in one of Vick’s rape stands…

Dan Hawkins can tell you how to spell it, brotha…

MRI result is being widely reported as having been negative – but nothing official from the University until later tonight. We’ll get the results of the knee scope then tonight as well. I’m breathing slightly easier now

Not only do I crave the single wing, I crave it fried and coated in Buffalo sauce with a side of ranch dressing.

Bullfrog beat me to it by a few minutes, but officials should clearly be able to arm themselves again these days. Especially if they draw and FIU, Miami matchup.

Ned at the OB!

I also have a strong urge to strap on a leather helmet and run naked through Fogo de Chao.

What, is the Wing T too advanced for Humanity Advanced?

Come on, Dr. Nutt. I’ve got stacks of notes and playbooks on obsolete offenses ran by the high schools in Minnesota. I can fed-ex them to Arkansas.

It’s enough to change my diet from including chicken and salmon occasionally to nothing but Brontosaurus Burgers in the fall. GRAAAAAAAAAWL!

Hopefully they’ll bring back the Notre Dame Box — “Let’s go … RIGHT!”

OOC,
With your “nabs” reference it is certainly clear what side of the Mason-Dixon line you were born on.
Those unfortunate enough to reside North of said line have no idea what you are referring to.

BTW- I can’t wait for my sons to be old enough to act out that very scenario. Knowing my background, they will be packing their own flasks and that coke will never make it back to me.

Now I see why Charley Trippi asked my scrawny white ass if I was a football player.

Arkansas offense will be super monodimensional. If they don’t even have somebody that can throw a play action pass, then Bama’s chances of being Official 2nd Tit to LSU’s Wehrmacht

. . . . are looking better

felix jones feels slighted in all of this and will now rush for 1300 yards and slash d-mac’s really big tires.

OK, as a gawdam Yankee, i’ll bite. What the hell are nabs, and how can I procure some? I assume pork is involved

Holding my breath out in LA.

Thanks for the update, Jerkwheat.

—G.B.

This looks like a perfectly cromulent offense to me. Hell, we went undefeated* running this offense, I say bring it back!

• Undefeated season was 9-0 in 1904

OK #23, Nabs are short for Nabisco. Think disgusting orange crackers with peanut butter, or any other six pack of cellophane wrapped little snack crackers.

Gotta have ’em with a Pepsi.

Ah the University of Michigan. Setting the game of football back 25 years per snap.

(Lllloyd Carr, when reach for comment, could only mutter “Grumble grumble” as he adjusted his underwire.)

oooooohhhh. those are goood. they stick to the roof of your mouth like a microwaved Moon Pie though.

You must eat if off the tip of a broadsword…

There’s the hydra. Slice his throat and grab his scrote.

Pepsi? Might as well drink it with gasoline. It’s gotta be with coke, even if it isn’t Coke.

I watched that entire video and I laughed and laughed. Nutt could run that offense and still win 10.

Is the videao looping same play over and over? Why can’t the defense seem to stop it anywhere short of seven or eight yards down the field… oh wait, there is a pitch, nevermind.

Houston: Doctor, what seems to be the problem.

Doctor: Monk’s knee – well, it’s swollen.

Houston: Like my ego?

Doctor: Worse.

Houston: So, you’re saying I need a bigger ego.

Doctor: Precisely. Start Texting Stacy Kiebler. Pretty soon, Namath will be calling you batshit crazy.

Guys like Tom Osborne believed the forward pass was overrated (524 yards rushing in the 96 Fiesta Bowl, sorry Orson!). However the days of five offensive linemen, a fullback, and a tight end all coincidentally named Minotaur (half man/half bull) sharing the steroid needle with Elsie the cow are long gone too.

Re: Nabs – wash ’em down with a nice cold Cheerwine.

Ohh, the backup QBs at AU are going fair game.

Seems Tuberville is going to let Mr. Groves and Mr. Blackmon determine who is #2 on the ole depth chart.

The WildCat formation has been renamed, officially. It is now the WildHog.

That took a lot of imagination.

Nabs – yeah, short for Nabisco pack of whatever. it doesn;t have to be the 6 pack crackers, necessarily. it can be the bag of the orange hexagon thin crackers made up of the material used to make the crackers shells of the six pack cracker/cheese/pb sandwiches also. I don;t see them too often anymore. In fact, at the high of “nabs” era, nabs was any damn snack on the shelf behind the cashiers counter… chips, crackers, cookies, it don’t give a damn. And yes, it was never a Pepsi. It was coke- which was also any damn thing that came out of the coke machine… pepsi, mellow yellow, Cocacola, Dr. Pepper, Cheerwine, RC- but it was never pop or soda.
Gamecock Tony – just make sure your kids don’t go to the concession stand with the doo doo ice.

wow, this brings back memories. in high school, this is the offense we attempted to run (3-6-1 as a junior, 2-7-1 as a senior, see how well it worked), and the only thing our coach would let us listen to in the weight room was the rocky soundtrack. this highlight reel just took me back a couple years to those glorious (or not so glorious) days

Brought a tear to my eye thinking of an ultra-determined Rocky Balboa outrunning boats on a typically glorious Philadelphia morning..

YMB – You could also link the music to Rocky working out in a cold Siberian cabin.

“The injury is most likely some torn cartilage, according to Dr. Houston Nutt, who diagnosed the injury on sight after practice. "

Do you have the phone records to prove that?

Want ’em?

I really hope the doo doo ice does not rear its ugly head at the Brice again this year.
I was mangle faced the first time I caught a waft of the doo doo ice in my jack and coke and I was positive I shit myself.

VandyJ – the ’Dores had to have run something else. The earliest reported founding of the single wing, by Pop Warner, is 1906. Vandy had to be running something else.

Check out 6:40, I guess that has to be an actual starter’s pistol being used by the zebra?

There is NO, absolutely NONE, Diet Sun Drop in Columbia. There is very limited Sun Drop in Columbia, actually.

As those who are from the Carolinas know, Sun Drop and Cheerwine go together like peanut butter and jelly. If a restaurant, BBQ joint, grocery store, etc, has one, they damn sure better have the other.

Luckily, the Teeters in Charlotte and the Triangle all carry both SD and Diet SD.

And, yes, nabs are good. I, too, vaguely remember the “toastchee” Lance speak, sans peanut butter, packets.

I, myself, am partial to the Nekots, but I digress. They are all, “nabs.”

And, as OOC stated, any soft drink is a coke, lower case “c.” Every time I have been the one to grab a coke on a road trip I ask, “do you want a coke?” If they say yes, I then ask, what do you want?

Dirty Gamecock using synonamous nomenclature. It is like we all grew up together in the state of SC and basically see eye to eye on every subject but one.

Bollocks…

I often have to resort to getting coke (lower case … definitely an important distinction) here in Charlottesville because there is a vast shortage of tea here. And those of you from SC know what I mean when I use the word ‘tea’. I thought Virginia was in the South!

The best part is when the guy scores at about the 6:40 mark, the ref shoots off a pistol. Much better than that lame hand-raising thing.
