coachacola Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Here's my prediction for the starting lineup against UL-L: Offense LT - Brock (RS-FR) LG - Gillam (JR-2L) C - Kelso (JR-2L) RG - Robertson (SR-1L) RT - Collins (SR-1L) QB - Mossakowski (JR-TR) RB - Sims (SO-TR) TE - McVey (SO-IL) WR - Johnson (SO-TR) WR - Ford (JR-2L) WR - Franks (SR-2L) Moss, Sims, Johnson were highly touted out of HS. Offensive line is a big question mark at this time. Sims, Garrett Harris and Harmon gives the team a lot of depth at RB that they've never had before. How much playing time do guys like Soto, Venson and Ploch get? Defense NT - Dorsey (SR-2L) DE - Dickson (JR-2L) DE - Okafor (SO-TR) ILB - Washington (JR-2L) ILB - Longino (JR-TR) OLB - Malbrough (SR-1L) OLB - Chavis (SR-1L) CB - Thomas (JR-2L) CB - Guillory (SR-1L) S - Allen (JR-2L) S - Garrett (SR-2L) Lot' of returning players along with an upgraded coaching staff, does this equate to a much improved defense that was pretty bad last year? How much will Anthony Beard be missed? How improved will the secondary be? Will the 3-4 defense equate to big years for guys like Malbrough and Chavis? I only went to one scrimmage this year. For those of you who have seen them practice a lot, where have I gone wrong on the starting lineup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 One quick change I'd make is I have Soto over McVey to this point at TE. McVey has been hampered with hamstring problems through camp and I'm not sure he's 100% yet. Soto has looked solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike t Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Here's my prediction for the starting lineup against UL-L: Offense LT - Brock (RS-FR) LG - Gillam (JR-2L) C - Kelso (JR-2L) RG - Robertson (SR-1L) RT - Babin QB - Mossakowski (JR-TR) RB - Sims (SO-TR) TE - McVey (SO-IL) WR - Handy (FR-True) WR - Ford (JR-2L) WR - Franks (SR-2L) McVey is out with a torn hamstring during spring. he is recovering from it, but he will not start. Johnson is out with a leg issue also. Defense NT - Dorsey(if back from the stingger he got a few weeks back if not Prescot will start) DE - Dickson (JR-2L) DE - Murrill ILB - Washington (JR-2L) ILB - Longino (JR-TR) OLB - Malbrough (SR-1L) OLB - Chavis (SR-1L) CB - Thomas (JR-2L) CB - Guillory (SR-1L) S - Davis S - Garrett (SR-2L) Just made a few little changes :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachacola Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 Woodard has named a few starters so here's an updated lineup for Saturday: Offense LT - Brock (RS-FR) LG - Gillam (JR-2L) C - Kelso (JR-2L) RG - Robertson (SR-1L) RT - Collins (SR-1L) QB - Mossakowski (JR-TR) RB - Garfett (RS-JR) TE - Soto (JR-TR) WR - Johnson (SO-TR) WR - Ford (JR-2L) WR - Franks (SR-2L) Woodard has said that Mossakowski will start at QB, Garrett at RB, Gillam at LG, and Kelso at C. Defense NT - Dorsey (SR-2L) DE - Dickson (JR-2L) DE - Merrill (JR-2L) ILB - Washington (JR-2L) ILB - Longino (JR-TR) OLB - Malbrough (SR-1L) OLB - Chavis (SR-1L) CB - Thomas (JR-2L) CB - Guillory (SR-1L) S - Allen (JR-2L) S - Garrett (SR-2L) Woodard is expecting Chavis to have a breakout year. Also expects special teams to be the most improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NorthoftheBorder Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I think your last list is pretty close. The only change I think that should be made is Sims, but Woodard is a loyal guy, aka Bevil from the last 2 years so it will take a few games for Sims production to make him do what he already probably knows he should do!

Mr.KnowItAll Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 They will run a 2 back system. Sure garret will get the first snap of the game but that doesn't mean he will get the most carries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike t Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 The Offense will be: LT - Brock (RS-FR) LG - Gillam (JR-2L) C - Kelso (JR-2L) RG - Robertson (SR-1L) RT - Babin QB - Mossakowski (JR-TR) RB - Garfett (RS-JR) TE - Hannah (JR) WR - Johnson (SO-TR) WR - Ford (JR-2L) WR - Franks (SR-2L Soto is out the first game due to schooling reasons. Babin has been with the starting bunch for the last few weeks of practice. he is getting the start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachacola Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 If the starters are Brock, Babin, Kelso, Gillam and Robertson, that averages out to 285. Not the biggest OL that's for sure but hopefully they'll get the job done. I was looking at the UL-L 2-deep and it looks like they are running the 3-4 defense and they are young up front. UL-L returns 4 of 5 starters on the OL and will average 308. Lamar's revamped defense will have their hands full with that bunch. Maybe their big guys will be a little slow and Lamar can take advantage of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CardAmbassador Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Well then it's noteworthy that both of these offenses have seen 3-4 defense all month long in practice, who does that favor more come game time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red rover Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Garrett Baxley has had a position change. They have moved him from OL to TE and has been running plays with the first squad. just an FYI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this why Baxley is practicing as a TE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.KnowItAll Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Yes. Soto is out with some sort of paperwork issue. Not sure what happened. Also Wempa was carted off the field at practice today with some sort knee injury. Didn't look pretty. Hopefully not season ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamar has the worst luck when it comes to injuries. It almost makes you wonder if it's something other than luck.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been running with first squad along with Hannah. A 6'5 230lb TE could be a nice addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry it was practice jersey 74. I thought Utterback was 73. I guess one of the many differences on this years team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.KnowItAll Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Utterback has a high and low ankle sprain. And McVey is out this week as well. And Harmon is out as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McVey hasn't practiced since the spring. He did walk though on TUE for the first time. With both McVey and Soto out I see why Baxley is now at TE. He probably would have redshirted this year as an lineman. Does anyone know the status on Soto? Hope he doesn't have to miss the whole year due to eligibility issues. Any idea when the weekly game notes will be released showing the starters and 2-deep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McVey hasn't practiced since the spring. He did walk though on TUE for the first time. He has practiced in non contact drills some but he hasn't put pads on since spring for sure. Also I Eric Arnold and Marcus Malbrough won't be playing. Both eligibility issues. Jestin White will start for Malbrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardinal Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I know people are saying McVey is hurt but is he out? I don't like the move of Ploch to tight end it seems we are stacked there with McVey, Soto, and Hannah. I sure would like to see Hannah get more touches somehow. He is a big athletic kid, as are Ploch and McVey. I haven't seen Soto yet but I hear he is awfully good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
