Can we get a congrats defense you earned it thread?

[MixBerryCrunch]

Arthur Brown >= Simoneau  ????

Easy now.  Let's not get ahead of ourselves too much tonight.

too late.  everyone's already saying this team is better than '98.  go back and look at the starting D from '98 and see how many of them played in the nfl.  it's just stupid.

No they aren't better. More diciplined maybe?

I dunno.  the offense is definitely more disciplined.  ricky williams was averaging like over 200 yards/game when they came to mhk and we held him to 58.  they were stupid good.  like all-time good.

I love the crap out of this D and this whole team but they're not '98.

There are probably 5-6 guys on defense that will play in the NFL. Mostly as backups but I think Malone, Zimmerman, Brown, Me-Sack, Tuggle, Lutui, and maybe Walker and Davis will all get a chance in the NFL. The offense is better than the 98 offense. Bishop made a lot of mistakes. It would be a great game if they played.

2012 not even close to as athletic, deep, or dominating as 1998 top to bottom.  1998 also had stoops and venables.  However, they are very disciplined and assignment sound, and have a few playmakers in the front, middle, and back.  They are a very competitive unit, and next week should be great test.

Would you dumbfucks STFU!  This is not about the '98 D for eff sake SHUT UP!!!

True.  Can we please see some more vulgar gifs.  Can never get enough of those.

I don't post them in the wrong thread OB.  GTFOOMF!

[star seed 7]

allowing 16 ppg.

this seems like it's good.

is this good?

[Not Sure]

It is REALLY nice not having to sweat through as many games this year.  Granted, I'm sure we'll have at least a few games that will be settled in the 4th quarter, but I've enjoyed the hell out of watching some old fashioned ass kickings.  Is it '98?  No.  Does it matter?  Nope.

I feel like Evans doesn't get any credit, but the dude is playing lights out. Yea, we look at ABs INT, but Evans had a set the volley cats would be proud of

[joda]

This team reminds me of the original Snyder regime where it seemed like every season we played the Heisman winner or runner-up and every time they had their worst game of the season against the 'Cats.

[MadCat]

Maybe the craziest thing this season?

Zimmerman hasn't fallen victim to the curse.

I've sensed this as well.

[cvmcat]

It's awesome to even talk about comparing this bunch to '98, but if they win the Pepper and the bowl game, whatever it may be, that argument will have been put to rest in my book.

[Boondock Poonhound]

Colin Klien, in his humble acceptance speech during the Heisman Trophy presentation, looked at, and genuinely thanked Arthur Brown for being an awseome teammate while Brown himself was in the front row finishing 5th in the voting.

No doubt.  Even with no real evidence to back it up, I constantly expect Zimz to eff up.  Isn't happening.

[kslim]

whether or not this d is as good as 98 is irrelevant we have the best defense  since 98 and i can live with that

[mocat]

I love when he zooms in from off-camera to tackle a rb in the backfield on a sweep. See @isu this year, ut in 2010(?), etc

No, Klien just pick up the trophy, recite the 16 goals and close with a thank you and God bless you

Did anyone else see that for awhile at the start of the game 1Y was playing the nickel corner?  I noticed it a few times.  I don't know if we were in a dime package or what, but there were definantly a few times we has 1Y on the slot and 2 others playing deep-middle.

I thought 1Y was starting to slide alittle last week by doing some 2Ys diving-at-feet impressions...but then he shrugged off the curse and came back strong last night.

[EMAWzified]

The 98 pass defense was exposed in its last three games. 99, now there was a defense.

Noticed this also. Jarrard Milo would generally drop deep on those plays (something Hartman always sucked at) while Evans would play a Rover/Safety hybrid.

Kinda highschoolish but it worked!

isn't the guy with the bad back that can't turn around really good?  can't remember if he's evans or what, but that's pretty badass to be playing d1 fball for an undefeated big 12 team when you can't even turn around.

Randall Evans is most notably dating Michael Beasley's sister, but he's settling in nicely as a cover corner as well.

was it just me or we were delivering more hits at all levels of the game last night, harder than at any point in time this season?  Special teams, especially the LBs and secondary were just flying to guys and blowing people the eff up.  Brown destroying Geno, kick off coverage.... i mean wow.  I don't know how many hits you could only describe with a loud BOOOOOM!

I noticed we've been popping people on D since the Miami game at least.
