  1. Surprised the punter didn't panic and down the ball at the 1 yard line
  2. Nobody was upset at the failure to go 69 yards in 40 seconds. They're mad at our failure to go 15 yards in 15 seconds.
  3. Can still see Roy being killed by: Dot. More likely now that Lorraine saves her from Roy. Could be Dot won't kill anyone - or maybe Roy's son (10% chance) Dot's daughter, Scotty - comes outta nowhere and plants an axe in the back of Roy's head just as he's ready to crush mom's windpipe. Then we discover she is Roy's daughter Lorraine. Talks dirty to Roy. Sits on Roy's kitchen table and spreads her legs. No underwear. He can't resist, pulls down pants, gets castrated and staggers off into snowy woods leaving trail of blood. Found frozen ala Jack Nicholson Dot's goofy assed husband. Has devine revelation. Figures it all out just in time. Really pissed off Token Deputy Witt Farr - Roy tries to pull that quick draw shit on Witt, but nobody knew the deputy was some kind of trophy winning quick draw motherfucker. He blows Roy's brains out Hot deputy Indira. They have epic battle with Roy getting the upper hand twice. She pulls one out of the fire. Maybe she bites his tongue off, then deballs him. Least likely way for Roy to die: tank shell takes off his head (but it would be an interesting twist). We know who's gonna kill his son. I'm thinking afterwards Roy has epic battle with Munch, and wins cuz he's such a mean motherfucker. He makes Munch look like a choir boy. Wood chipper scene? Osterizer? Hot stove? Electric turkey carver? I want to know more about Roy's secret hiding place. Body count.
  4. they laid the ball on its side??? you saying that's now a bounce strategy?
  5. I was thinking about that. You practice the hell out of OS kicks with two scenarios: In both, you have six or seven running near full speed by the time the ball is kicked. Would require great timing (i.e., practice). First scenario - the big bounce wherein your have your lead runners take out opponent trying to field the ball before it drops. Then two or three are a step behind ready to field the ball. The second scenario would be all seven in a mad dash for a pooch kick. Had we succeeded there, we would've had a minute and a half to go fifty yards - and two time outs. Damn. We woulda won that game.
  6. The most positive thought to come from this massive thread. Accurate and uplifting
  7. Couple of other mentions: IIRC, in the last ten min or so, we actually increased our numbers of blitzers, and it gave Penix some problems. WE saw a bad pass or two, maybe a drop. We got the ball back. Think maybe we should have been doing this sooner. And the other thing: What a shitty onside kick. How in this day and age can experienced coaches not have taken a good look at all of the onside kicks that have worked and not concluded that kicking the top of the ball and making it take a short hop then a big hop is the way to go. Furthermore, dammit, whenever anyone does an onside these days, it looks as if they've never practiced it in their lives. If practiced enough, I gotta believe that you can up the odds significantly of getting one of those sucker. Sadly, UT's OSK sucked.
  8. Re throwing to the middle of the field In his day, Tom Landry was considered the most innovative coach in the NFL. Rumor has it that for any given opponent he had one play that he kept up his sleeve, that he knew would work, but that he wouldn't run until the game was on the line.... Like from the Steeler 10 yd line... Superbowl Jackie Smith's Super Bowl Blunder! _ NFL's Worst Plays Ever.mp4
  9. Shit got real tonight. I'm afraid it's all gonna end too fast. Suspect we're looking at ten episodes, so there's that. Could actually end in nine. Who knows. Would just as soon have last week's episode condensed and more where this story is finally headed. There's a load of shit coming down on someone. In fact, it's already underway.
  10. I'm not sure why anyone does anything to the weak side of the field. Above, at the snap, look how much real estate is available to the left. For that matter, Quinn could have rolled left. I don't think they would have expected it, and he is capable of pulling it off. The kid's got a rifle for an arm when he needs it - and a very quick release.
  11. Ewers was under pressure the entire night. Seems as though he did better when he was forced from the pocket. But Sark sure should have known they'd bring it on first down. He shoulda left the pocket on every play, but thrown fast. We would have still gotten off three plays. One quick receiver diving toward a low throw - impossible to defend. Love the Breaking Bad GIF. Perfect
  12. The ball was snapped near the right hash mark. Vince was fast, but I tell you what, when Ewers turns it up he's damn fast. Had the swing gone to Blue on the left side of the field, and the ball set up on the left hash mark. Ewers could have rolled right. See how Vince's receivers above took their defenders to the left.... And Ewers can pass on the run. Above, Young's halfback is open at the goal line. Anyway, anything but those accursed fucking fades. Washington's secondary wasn't all that good. We shoulda won that game.
  13. Texas didn't bring their A game, but they did everything necessary to win. The D held when it needed to. The O got the ball to the 15. That's where the loss occurred. Sark got us to the desert tray, but didn't let the big dog eat. Terrible play calls. We should have scored and it would have been one of the greatest comebacks in UT history - maybe even in all of college football. Sark went blind when the chips were down. He needs an OC, or at least someone to bounce plays off of or discuss strategy, especially in situations like that. He had a great year and hopefully learned a thing or two going forward. I will probably get over this loss in next year or so. Afterthought - How long was VYs scramble to the end zone against USC. If we'd been on the left hash mark last night and Quinn had rolled right, and if the receivers had cleared a path for him...
  14. If you've got a right armed passer, you want that ball on the left hash mark. That fucking swing to Blue, on the short side of the field no less, was a jackass call
  15. Bullshit. When you've got an accurate passer and great receivers, you don't throw balls up for grabs to find out if the defenders going to interfere - and if that interference gets called. You roll the fuck out (as QB often are forced to do when they're chased out of the pocket) and you fire that ball to a receiver who breaks loose - 12 fucking yards away. Can't be stopped
  16. Four shots from the 12 yard line and not a single roll out called - Evers is great on rollouts. 4 shots and not a single bullet up the middle, instead we get these fucking touch passes and fade shit - only one of which was close to being caught. Four shots from the 12
  17. How can this D be so unprepared for this? Weren't there game films of teams that held Wash in check?
  18. If we go into panic mode ala greg davis, and begin passing every play, we're doomed
