2015 CFB Week 1 Open Thread

Bama is doing a lot more contemporary stuff on offense than you're giving them credit for. Lane Kiffin has changed that. They're spreading out more, running the ball out of the pistol, increasing the tempo every once in a while. Heck a few pages ago I posted a tweet were somebody identified where they ran one of Tom Herman's plays. They're going to school on what has beat them (mainly from Ohio State and Auburn) and incorporating bits of it into what they do.

The talent gap is real and evident. Wisconsin has always operated at a deficit compared to the Ohio States and Alabamas of the world. It used to be though that they had the toughness and technique on defense and in the run game to make better teams play down to their level. The did it as recently as their bowl game against Alabama. They don't appear to have that ability this season.
You gotta wonder if all the coaching upheaval the past few years might be catching up to them. I know they have their "system", but it's hard to win when you to through three (four if count alverez) head coaches in four years. Plus, Chryst's track record at pitt was the definition of mediocrity...

Yet another SEC team playing very poorly against their week 1 pillow fighting foe. This time Mississippi State-Southern Miss. Score is 27-16 with 7:48 left in the 4th. Prescott has looked pretty good, but their defense does not look that good at all.

Game is on FS1 if you want to catch the tail end.
