Thoughts on College Football Season - 2010

Posted on 12-1-2010, prior to the SEC championship game, in which Auburn destroyed SC.

Malzon is a genious, but its bigger than that. The first game I saw them play last year I saw nothing but guys running free in space. Its a combination of everything that works, but its really the execution which is at the heart of it. They don't fumble much, don't jump offsides, and Newton is incredibly accurate. Down by 24 points at Bama and they come back?!. They almost set the record for rushing in the SEC. Put that in your pipe and, after cleaning any residue, smoke it.
That being said, Bama imploded, which is at the feet of Saban, like a lit bag of dog poop on Halloween. I'd recommend that Ga get Malzon to replace Richt, except their offense has not been the problem, even wtih a freshman quarterback. You can make a case for Ga being in the mix with just a whiff of defense and a full season with A.J. Green. Tech is a train wreck, and the Paul Johnson Experience will not end well.
I won't take credit for this one, but a friend threw this one out: Whatever professional team drafts Newton should also draft Malzon, for whatever the going rate is. He won't run that much in the pros, but they've got something working that no one has figured out, and Newton knows how to run it.
I'll end with one last thought: Don't underestimate 'The Ole Ball Coach'. He started this whole mess....and he may end it.
But I woudn't bet against Auburn.
