WBN Hot Links- Helmet-Hitting, Slobberknocking, Take No Prisoners Edition
By Paul Jordan
Ladies and Gentlemen, this man knows football. He appreciates the finer things in life, much as I do myself. He understands the nuances, the intricate details, the cat and mouse games played by coaches, and the chess match mentality of coordinators all over college football. I spoke to him yesterday, and he gave me the following message concerning the Cats and their game against Auburn on Saturday. He said, “Greg, there is a time in life for every purpose. We have to learn when to apply subtle moves, and slip in and out of situations and improve our mental approach to the game of football. And then there are times when you have to walk up to your opponent and punch them dead in the face, and keep punching until they go down and stay down. No rules, no holds barred, just helmet-hitting, slobberknocking football. And that my friend, is what your Cats must do. They must stay thirsty for victory to the very end.”
After wiping away a tear, and thanking him for his advice, I knew what I had to do. So I have found everything I could find about the game tomorrow, checked every scheme, looked at every man lining up on both sides of the football, and have learned this. We not only can win tomorrow, we should win. But to do that, we have to tackle like our lives depended on it, and pound Auburn into the ground every chance we get. We need to hit, and then hit, and then hit, and then hit again until they either grind Auburn into the dust of Commonwealth Stadium, or leave them bloody and limping home. That is the key to victory.
Now on with the links. These guys are the first ones we have to stop. Bleed Blue Kentucky has their assessment of the matchup. Randall Cobb says he is playing with a chip on his shoulder. Good, he plays better when he does that. Joker says the guys are enthused and focused in practice. Auburn coaches will not hesitate to turn Cam Newton loose if necessary. I hope someone hits him so hard the War Eagle feels it. Auburn is also struggling with tackling. Here’s to their struggles continuing. Joker’s keys to the game plan are right here. The Cats are happy to be back in Commonwealth.
Saturday Down South has their breakdown of the Cats season. “Sweet Weezy Jefferson” has to be the funniest line I have heard all year. Their 5 keys to the game are here. This man must be stopped if we want Derrick Locke hitting those outside lanes and gaining large chunks of real estate. But make no mistake, Auburn is coming for blood and loaded for bear.
OK……if that does not keep your senses buzzing and your mouse finger clicking away, you need help from a qualified professional. And lastly, may the spirit of Bear Bryant be guiding us all the way through tomorrow. And I can also think of a few million people in Alabama that are behind us 100%.
