What happened is that our defense was suffocating, especially against subpar quarterbacking and thus they and Florida got swamped because they couldn’t stay on the field.

You know that all the teams you mentioned had very good defenses. Hell ou and Michigan are both top ten in defensive fei. They are legit defenses which is why and how they made bama and milroe look broken.

2025 Cotton Bowl: CFP SF - Texas vs. Ohio State - 6:30pm on ESPN
TheYoungHorn replied to Pancho's topic in Football
I watched it. If we make initial tackles like you said it’s 4th and 4. He breaks out of baron by going back and then contacts Holmes with the ball at the 38. He is also 40-50 pounds more, higher and now moving forward. Perfect wrap up and drop and he ends up at 37ish here. 4th and a long three. They were still going for it. Inside the 40, tie game, their weapons, 4th and under 8 they are going. Yes, it would have been nice if his extra effort didn’t gain those extra 3 yards after catch/contact, but it happened. Wouldn’t have changed that they were going, we weren’t ready, called a timeout and gave away the conversion by alignment and personnel. -

On the 36 yard line? In what world are they punting on the 36 yard line? -

No. Here is the play when he catches it. Already 4 yards and with huge amount of green. Jahdae flies downfield to cut him down and initiates contact with their TE, and now ball is already only 4 yards away. So even if the tiny Baron wraps him up and drops him immediately its 4th and 4 on the 36. They are not punting, in any world. Ever. So yes, it would have been great if he wrapped up and help arrived (holmes, also small) to knock him down for no extra yardage. But they were going either way. -

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet
TheYoungHorn replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
When the defense forced a pick six from Howard, or a punt return TD from SIlas, you would be talking about the sack that Quinn took when his RT got whipped and we used the field position and our chance to make the most of the situation to tie the game back up and go to OT? -
Bringing #3 from depth late to be the fourth was not the problem with that call. It wasn't great, and looked Todd Orlando levels of stupid/ineffectual but it's not why this call was criminal malpractice levels of bad. The problem was we backed every one in zone up even further and had a safety (maybe two) and Hill both bailing full speed backward at/before the snap. Which is not a way these guys are used to playing defense ever in their lives, and definitely not how they play well. PK thinks it's a genius call that covers his bases for both a deep shot and/or a screen (as it gets both of best worlds). He thinks late unexpected pressure after o-oline committed to 3 down line man opens gap for #3 to come in and force throw off target or get sack. While also dropping his best screen defender into the wide side of the field to sniff out and stop a potential screen or draw... BUT, it's Todd Orlando level thinking as all our guys end up running to and defending green, and not seeing, reading or reacting to what is happening in front of them. So, we end up with Hill out of position and one on one with 3 Ohio State linemen leading a back who is now nearing full speed. Which in that case you have to realize you are screwed and know that you have to disrupt back to make them slow down, change direction, etc. So instead of playing ole to try to bring down back, you need to sacrifice yourself like a grenade at the legs of all three o-line men and cause big bodies to fall in every direction. Problem three is all your DBs are bailing out and end up being in strange punt return like angles, instead of normal pursuit and attack DB angles they would use on a similar screen look on a third-and-long situation.

2024 Week 17 - Cotton Bowl CFP Semifinal Texas vs Ohio State
TheYoungHorn replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
Allar choked a bit. They ran the ball well, and play action to TE and running backs was cooking. Very Kansas of them honestly. That's a good unit, with a great schemer and play caller. Notre Dame had 9 guys flying down hill the whole second half, and if not for their QB missing a ton of throws, who knows. They aren't explosive downfield against a big-league defensive backfield, but they are a good unit. That said, you can see from those numbers, that both OSU and Penn State found some great wrinkles to move up and down the field against Oregon. -

If not for backbreaking Casey Thompson pick six as we drive into score, we win that one. Huge 14 point swing difference there. -
Where did you get all22? Was this just used on main broadcast as a replay?

This is part of why even with the stellar backs he has had here sarks run game has struggled in red zone. Don’t help the defense by condensing the edge and bringing additional bodies into the box. only do that when you have an execution advantage with the extra blocker. and davis and even JT sanders have never been that. Hell even helm is more of a shielder than a punishing set the edge or crash down guy
-
Also sarks insistence on bringing extra bodies into the box is awful for that kind of runner. It has never made sense to tighten up and insist on backup bad blocking te and wide receivers to make key blocks in short yardage situations
-
Having the read the zone patiently behind the los back play the play the same from the end zone was also a bad look. You can’t punish teams for cheating on the backside if you don’t get downhill fast. Wisners patience paid off against aggy and Clemson with bigger nfl bodies committing themselves in a direction, but it’s garbage against asu or Georgia or any other team only trying to inflict chaos.

Stone was consistently making more of the 50 plus kicks today in warm ups. But Bert and stone were both missing quite a few in the 40 range…yes, even in warm ups
