  1. 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.
  2. 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
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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
  6. 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.
  7. 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...
  8. 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
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. Ok Defense. Motherfuckers, Get Angry
  12. Pretty fucking amazing. Kudos all around! Fuckin A
  13. Turn the fuck around, intercept the fucking footba;ll
  14. I like Robinson better than Blue
  15. We're two tds and a stop from winning this thing
  16. How can this D be so unprepared for this? Weren't there game films of teams that held Wash in check?
  17. If we go into panic mode ala greg davis, and begin passing every play, we're doomed
  18. And let our D rest while theirs wears down
  19. And get a pick or two, dammit
  20. I take that scripted shit with a grain of salt. He's gonna skip plays that are clearly inappropriate. It's just a list of plays that they think have a good chance of working
  21. Oh ye of little faith, motherfuckers
  22. Now that's what I'm talkin bout!
  23. No fuckin around here Sark. Quick hitter
