  1. The broadcasters are right. This Texas team is pretty tough to break down defensively. We've given up 4 goals on the year but 2 or 3 of those were against SMU when we were playing a bunch of subs.
  2. 3-0 Texas vs LBSU in the 1st half. This is the best we've looked all year.
  3. I don't know if Byars is returning but we look much more dynamic offensively without her. If she does come back, I hope we realize that our offense doesn't have to be "give the ball to Byars and let her make a play." We are too 1 dimensional, at times, with Byars. It's why I think we actually looked better in games where we put Byars on the wing and let somebody like Missimo or Villarreal play in the striker role. Just going 1 v 3 up top with Byars is not maximizing this roster's talent.
  4. @ Florida, Bowling Green (gave Penn State a test), and Arkansas on a neutral field. This is not a tough part of the schedule but I still say aggy goes 2-1 or 1-2 during this stretch. They have sucked on the road, the Arkansas offense isn't bad, and Bowling Green at least has a pulse.
  5. The Texas State result wasn't a 1 week thing. UTSA also really struggled with Kennesaw State who has been a mid-tier FCS program prior to this year.
  6. I said this in the game thread, but we should rarely ask Blue or Wisner to block in the passing game. You create major mismatches when you add them to the passing game. Blue, IMO, is one of the best players in the country when you get him in space. If you don't commit a couple guys to the perimeter you're asking for disaster like this play. He humiliates a DB here but often times when you run these swing passes he actually gets 1 v 1 opportunities with a LB which is even more of a mismatch.
  7. I think this start is a good thing much like last year. Now they know they can't simply coast through the year and must improve. Last year's 2-2 start was a wakeup call for everyone.
  8. Huh, Texas was killing Michigan today with this. This play to end the 1st half, the Blue TD in the 3rd quarter, and Wisner caught a couple swing passes for good gains.
  9. Blue is special in space. We should be throwing at least 5 or 6 swing passes to him a game.
  10. I think personnel-wise it also makes less sense to run as many 2 TE sets with this roster. On the Blue touchdown in the 3rd quarter, they were in 11 personnel. Sark seems to be embracing "we are going to spread your ass out and we dare you to bring numbers." I saw a lot of 11 personnel today with the tight end flexed.
  11. Blue and Wisner should rarely be asked to pass block. Those swing passes to the RBs are creating a ton of issues for defenses having to account for all our WRs and Helm. Getting them in space on those swing passes is a nightmare for defenses. We are going to hit some big plays on those swing passes to RBs.
  12. I'm glad it only took 1 week for everyone to figure out ND does indeed suck because it was so obvious in the opener.
  13. Their defense isn't good. ND's offense is awful and they thought that was a good indicator of their D.
  14. This isn't even remotely surprising if you watched the aggy vs ND game. ND is not good.
  15. Bringing in Manning you want to run some semblance of an offense to get him legit reps. What's the point of bringing in Manning if you're just going to fall on the ball? Which is what we did with Ewers.
  16. Or maybe he just wanted to be conservative and not risk injuries.
  17. Washington gave up less than 1 sack per game last year. If you think beating that Washington team last year was by "sacking them a lot" you don't know what you're talking about. Nobody could sack them with their OL and how quickly Penix throws the ball. Beating them was all about the DBs which we didn't have last year.
  18. Not if they can't throw the ball. The 1s completely shut down the QB run game in this one.
  19. It's almost like our DBs were bad last year. Swap Thompson with Mukuba and we might win a national title last year.
  20. We've given up 6 points in 2 games and people are bitching about sacks lol. It's almost like staying in a base defense against teams that can't throw the ball works.
  21. I'm kind of convinced we might have won a title last year with 1 above average safety.
  22. I don't think that's a catch but also not sure they can overturn it.
  23. I'll never understand people that want to win by 40 instead of staying healthy. Just be conservative and keep players healthy.
