Imagine what Titus would've done in 2011 with Rodgers throwing him the ball.

Titus couldn't outrun two fat white cops in Burbank dressed in only a garbage bag.

Are there any other guys playing tonight that we should be watching for too? Any CBs, safeties, WRs, etc?

lamarcus joyner has been compared to the skill set of honeybager. He played safety un until this year. Played corner this year and had 3 picks and 5 sacks and was the teams only unanimous all American. slightly undersized for safety in the nfl....but again hes a playmaker in the mold of honeybager. 5'9'' 190 lbs. But plays aggressive, hits hard, great in run support and coverage.
 
It'd be nice if Kelvin Benjamin actually got thrown a catchable pass. I'd like to see what he can do.
 
I don't understand why Florida State almost always lines their WRs up so close to the tackles. It just allows Auburn to have more players in the box, giving them more blitz possibilities. If they spread their WRs out wide, like most teams do, it'd be easier to tell who was blitzing and makes it harder for Auburn to defend the run.

Also, besides his one catch down the field, Benjamin has not looked very good. He's dropped at least one accurate pass. Part of that is definitely Auburn's pressure, but if he can't get open against Auburn, why would he be able to get open against NFL defenses?

Say what you want about Winston's skills as a QB...kid does one hell of an interview.
 
heck of a game. main thing I got from the game is Benjamin isn't a first round pick. Have to wait and see his 40 time.....but he looks TOO BIG and too slow. almost like a TE. Not so sure what round you take a better version of fauria....but probably atleast not until early to mid 2nd.
 
They were doubling Benjamin but didn't come away impressed did make the clutch winner but that dude would benefit from another year in school.
 
I remember Marino's junior year, impressive - senior year not so good. Got drafted late because of it - well we know what happens. Not sure I'd grade him on 1 game. And no, not comparing this guy to Marino. Some guys just have off nights..

we were talking about the WR. I thought Winston had a rough first half....but played great in the 2nd half. everything went wrong in the first half....im sure LKP kept track of all the drive killing drops....so he can tell you about those. After the converted fake punt it was all FSU after that. FSU shut malzahns offense down the 2nd half.....talk about making halftime adjustments.....dang.

I realized that so I deleted my post but you caught it..
 
I thought the kick-return for a TD was a huge difference-maker. Auburn still did a nice job going down the field the next drive for a touchdown (Tre Mason was amazing), but then their defense played awful on the last drive. I don't know how they let Rashad Greene get that 49 yard catch. He caught it, both defenders whiffed, and then he ran 30+ yards. That was the difference. If he gets tackled by either of those guys, I'm not sure FSU is able to win the game. Winston had some solid throws on the last drive, but overall he was really out of rhythm most of the game (credit the Auburn defense) and didn't play very well.
