Just got an ESPN alert that Malzhaun denied having our signals? Was this alleged? Hadn't heard anything about this.

Sounds super SECish

stealing signals... lol.

maybe your 90 year old coach should make them harder to steal.

...but no, i have not heard anything along those lines.

actually a small article now (if you can call it that). I cant say it seemed like they knew what we were doing...

Commentators mentioned this more than once last night.

Then change the signals.

I have no doubt we knew exactly which looks to throw at you on D to make you audible into terrible run plays. Malzahn has someone(s) on staff that is watching the other team's calls and figuring them out. This is how we shut down FSU for 3 quarters in the Championship game.

If you're too dumb to change your calls vs Auburn, you get what you deserve. Everyone is trying to do it, it looks like Auburn is actually doing it.

This is stupid. If you don't have someone trying to decipher the other team's signals then that's your problem. Also don't know how it can be considered "stealing" if they're giving them out on the sideline in plain sight.

It's against the rules in the NFL. College doesn't have anything barring it right now. Pretty typical SEC though.

BackPayne · « **Reply #9 on:** September 19, 2014, 10:10:56 AM »

Who cares? We effed ourselves with the kicking game and turnovers.

MixBerryCrunch · « **Reply #10 on:** September 19, 2014, 10:14:35 AM »

You don't just watch a team from across the field and learn their signals. My guess is Gus has someone taping opponents when they're playing other teams. It's interesting because I think he's only doing it against OOC opponents, FSU and KSU.

Gus probably just figured out our check tendencies. Show a defense that makes checking into a run a no brainer, and then switch the defense to stop that run after the audible.

They stopped the run by loading the box. They knew the routes our receivers were going to run.

someone tweeted that towards the end of the first half we were double audibling because auburn was all over our first ones.

ednksu · « **Reply #14 on:** September 19, 2014, 10:30:53 AM »

It would have been nice for bill to watch the national championship last year. Auburn does this kind of crap. Kelvin Benjamin figured it out and FSU made the adjustments.

Its part of the game, its on us to have other options to call plays if we find out an opponent is doing it.

This. Quit being bitches about it. Maybe during the 25hrs a day that bill stays awake he could figure out a way to mix them up.

ednksu · « **Reply #17 on:** September 19, 2014, 10:43:18 AM »

Understandably part of the game, but it doesn't make it less bush league. I'm pretty shocked Snyder called then on it.

Dugout DickStone · « **Reply #18 on:** September 19, 2014, 10:58:27 AM »

If stealing our signals is doable than you'd better believe Kingsbury, Horsewoman and Gundy will be doing the crap out of it.

Weis is too lazy.
Stoops and Patterson love us too much
Briles is too Texas
Strong is incapable of doing it

This has nothing to do with 3 missed fg's, jake dropping the ball, and our star WR tipping a ball in the air

Yeah. If they were really stealing signals to gain an advantage they did a pretty poor job of it.

'taterblast · « **Reply #21 on:** September 19, 2014, 12:22:32 PM »

plenty of teams at least try to steal signals

Ouch, low blow sir. Pretty sure this type of stuff goes on in the NFL as well with some of the sharpest coaches in the world.

Haven't we known this since Baylor 2012?

maybe bill put them in the cloud.
