Viper 3,576 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Ott reminds me of Tre Mason. Shifty, quick and powerful. Their backup, Isaiah Ifanse, is equally powerful... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabby 2,098 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 I guess we will see what our D line is made of. Cal put up over 600 yards last game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTiger 14,527 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Surprised Cal traveled to Denton. For recruiting, maybe? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think that dude is faster than Trey? Ott, I mean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W.E.D 11,071 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Same guy ran for 100+ opening week vs a bad team then ran for ~65 yards a game vs P5 teams the rest of the year. Do t get fooled/scared due to bad opponents 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardin Drake 2,085 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Yeah, he's pretty good. But our D sees tougher backs every day in practice. California soft is going to run into Southeast hard. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do t get fooled/scared due to bad opponents I'm never scared. It's hard to get hurt on the couch or the bleachers. 😉. I was more interested in the style of running. I always thought Trey looked like a powerful water bug or something. It's just hard to explain for someone with my limited intelligence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuscaloosaTiger 311 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Cal's O-line looks good in replays. Probably some high IQ guys. Should be a good test for our D-front and LBs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but that was after the QB run was removed from the playbook. I put more on the injury than I do us making changes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faster than 2013 Mason, yes, but only because Mason bulked up prior to that season. 2011 Mason was near equal to Ott's speed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, this will be one of the toughest tests their O-Line has ever faced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoAU 1,696 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 The Cal running attack will be a much bigger test for our DL than UMass was, but still won’t be as big of a test as some of the SEC schedule (due to much better OL play). Should be a good test and “ramp up” game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDUBB4AU 5,375 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Need to play keep away on offense. Slow drives and don’t allow Cal to get the ball. Use the clock and run the ball. The new clock rule may allow AU to have the ball a full quarter lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDUBB4AU 5,375 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 AU ground game needs to control the crowd and the line of scrimmage. I believe we have the size and backfield to do so. Not to Mention the read option with Robbie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
