Didn't the announcer guy (Gary Danielson?) say something about they were lining him up as a wideout and that created a mismatch with (I think) David Nelson vs a Safety? I dunno if how they are using him is intentional or what. but it doesn't seem like he see's any play until the second half and usually the 4th qtr. Why I dunno. I would think they would rotate Demps, Moore, Rainey and Moody more throughout the game to keep them fresh.

I think part of this was that the coaches were trying to out-quick the center of the line rather than lose trying to out-power the center of their defensive line.

I keep wondering the same thing. When our smaller backs were unable to make any headway early in this game, I was thinking we'd see Moody step in and play. This seemed more like his kind of situation. In the fourth quarter, when they use him to burn clock, he did pretty well and it seems like we could have used some of that earlier. Still, it's not like I see him every day in practice. Our coaches aren't stupid so if they're not using him in a particular situation, it must be that they don't have confidence that he'll get the job done. I wish I knew more about it, though, because every time I see him he seems like a really solid back with the potential to run hard up the middle and grind away at the yards when we need a long sustained drive.

We have been waiting 2 years now (he sat out the first year - and this is the second year) to see Moody running between the tackles - to be our power runner - and the fourth quarter of the SECC game was the perfect time to have the power back running the ball, 4 yards and a cloud of dust, run out the clock, keep the chains moving, etc. Is Moody still not ready? I saw him lining up as a wide out??? And they kept putting James, Demps, and Rainey as the talback. Whereas our defense missed A LOT of arm tackles - Alabama did not appear to miss many arm tackles against James, Demps, and Rainey. Wasn't Mon Williams our power back before he got hurt? Is he still not ready either? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~-- --~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~ --- --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
