  1. Could someone explain how things work when you have a passing game coordinator that isn't the DC? Is PK only calling what the front 6/7 are doing on a given play and the secondary is instructed by Joseph? If PK calls for a blitzing LB is it up to Joseph to set the coverage based off of that?
  2. We really stopped getting pressure in the second half, we seemed to stop bringing any blitzes and tried to cover our way to the end of the game. Don’t know why, after so many examples to the contrary, we would go away from bringing pressure. On a related note, we really haven’t gotten consistent pressure with just the DL as the season as worn on, especially from the edge. Burke has had some good moments but Sorrell hasn’t really taken the next step like I thought he would. For the D to truly become dominant we need to be able to pressure the QB with just the front four.
  3. Has been my experience too. Was nothing from q3 2022 to q2 2023 but since then have had quite a few.
  4. I thought Conner was quite good and this seems to corroborate that. He stayed on blocks much better than he did against BYU.
  5. Anybody got the Scipio defensive post Mortem?
  6. Klein ran a lot of all curls on us in the second half. They picked up that we are terrible in zone, especially the linebackers. Multiple times we had two guys cover the same receiver or like in this case, take false steps for no apparent reason.
  7. Now it makes sense why he moves like an office bound, 40 something middle manager, he has the same afflictions as one.
  8. if scripting the first two series worked so well for Maalik, why didn't Sark just script the whole game?! Sometimes I don't think he really is a football genius...
  9. Agreed. I'm not sure why Keilan hasn't gotten more touches, the few times he has he's run hard and made things happen.
  10. far more nasty than perhaps our best blocking WR ever? I think Gerry might be selling this guy a bit too hard.
  11. huh, I woulda thought a guy named Biff was destined for success.
  12. while there might've been only one official drop, I still expect an elite receiver to catch a deflected ball that hits him in both hands and catch a deep ball that bounces off his chest. Worthy's big problem is he always lets the ball get to his chest, he is not a natural at using his hands to catch. What separates him from the best of the best imo.
  13. Watch Conner on the 4th down attempt after Brooks was pushed out at the 1. If he actually gets low and drives his man (who he outweighs by at least 50 lbs) backwards Brooks probably scores. Now, one could make the argument, why are we running to the left side of the line when we know Conner is a poor run blocker and Campbell and Jones are much better at moving their man off the line. But who are we to question the genius play caller?
  14. Yeah that guard pull play action needs to be ripped out of the playbook. It has resulted in more sacks than any other look, especially when you’re asking an oaf like Conner to make it over in time to a DE or blitzing LB
  15. he's a mean sumbitch. i might have to make the 20 minute drive to watch DS
  16. Do you happen to know who calls plays?
  17. yeah I kept telling the folks I was watching with he has to be hurt. He looked like he wasn't physically able to move laterally.
  18. one thing I hope we're preparing for is the triple option that KU ran on us. Not something you see too often these days and we were not ready for it. I could see OU going to that early with Gabriel to get their run game going
  19. I was just 10 years old, but my family helped evacuate a bunch of horses from the stable we kept ours at away from onion creek. Another place down the road didn’t move all theirs and some drowned in their pens.
  20. Yeah it seems pretty anachronistic at this point. A relic of a bygone era when you’d work for the same company for 30 years.
  21. something technical for undergrad and an MBA
  22. great, thanks for the explanation
  23. I figured the Fed pausing would be good for the rates, why did it jump so much?
  24. How do you attack the 335 tite effectively? Feels like you have to be able to attack the edges with wide/outside zone and be able to play action off of that. It takes patience and precise execution We’ve been average at best at getting much push in the run game and ewers is still inconsistent in his delivery so we’re often in 3rd and long where the flyover defense is at its best
  25. Yeah when the Fightin Texas Aggie Band marches in you really get a rare glimpse of what the Parisians must’ve felt like in 1940.
