  1. No easy games in the SEC
  2. If y’all see me here tomorrow, come kick my ass.
  3. I know. He seems to be an open book. But it’s a bit surprising that level of engagement he drums up. He’s passionate about it. We all are to some degree. And many of us can be over the top. As for me, as of age, I become less mature regarding my sports opinions and dig in a little deeper. It was merely a joke directed at thatguy so Derks don’t think I’m coming at you.
  4. As to the first point, why? And some posters believe another poster has issues. As to the second one, I have some insight but working from educated guesses as to this particular point. There is subjectivity but working from what is likely a defined set of circumstances. It’s a bit fandom view, but the teams use the info so there’s likely team input even if indirectly. So on that play, obviously you’d need a specific visual, but generally speaking that’s on the Oline. If it’s 5 seconds after the snap and the QB runs into his lap in the opposite B gap, then the Oline won’t likely get tagged for that.
  5. Might as well just say shut the site down.
  6. I got you. I agree with you. My point still stands. The thrashing of players goes a bit far. I’m not even saying you even though I took a small comment out of context perhaps. Maybe slightly intentionally. That overall tone of negativity is present here on both sides. It’s always team.
  7. @Thatguy if nothing else you talk football, some don’t care to engage in that. You didn’t ask me, but generally I’d say not on QB. Flashing back to UW last year, there was a borderline QB fault on a Campbell sack. Not sure if it was a twist. Really more unfortunate timing.
  8. Steam, I believe those that track self sacks do attempt to define it. It is not perfect, but it is a data point. They’re doing their best to apply it consistently. It’s not even called a self sack I don’t believe. If the Olinemen is beat or missed an assignment, it’s not put on the QB. There is an analysis of every player on every play with a reasonable determination about what the offense and defense are attempting to do.
  9. So you must have shitty players. Right? Does a losing record qualify or some other qualifier?
  10. Let’s try to take Ewers out of the equation here. It could and does happen to all QBs. 1). If that WR runs a 4.5 as opposed to a 4.3, does he catch it? 2) If you’re an NFL GM, and you only have one play to watch, how would you rate this Qb play with respect to timing, accuracy, anticipation?
  11. You weren’t exactly demonstrative in your statement, but you did refer to shitty teams with the implication that we had shitty players. Every year we have multiple folks ripping players. That’s been done here throughout the thread too. There is a disconnect somewhere. Since Colt, we’ve had 3 QBs, Ewers will be the 4th, spend time in the NFL. I believe Ash medically retired. Swoopes made it in the NFL at a different position. Maybe we didn’t win as much as we’d like. But maybe our shitty QBs weren’t exactly the problem. People suck. More so on social media platforms. Ever buddy has an opinion. And we’re all right in our own minds. I’m just trying to determine if we shit talk some but not others. Is that ok?
  12. So in your defense of Ewers, you’re willing to shit on many other players and teams? This is part of why I push back. There is no hesitation to downplay others to lift up Ewers. It is a message boards right to do so to crucify or so it’s posters feel. Repeat it to yourself, a QB is the most important position but is easily the most dependent on every other mofo out there. There’s only one QB that’s had the same coach and same system for 3 years running since Colt. Probably didn’t help those other shitty QBs. Nowhere in the annals of college football history is Craig Krenzel considered a great QB. Yet he finished #1. Probably same for Greg McElroy. Boomer, you’re a reasonable bastard. There’s some element of truth here, but particularly in 2023, there were few here that contributed after Ewers arrival. It was reported that Taaffee and Arch were tight during his recruiting process. Arch is here more because Sark. And let’s not forget money helps. That ain’t Ewers. Anthony Hill and Collins Simmons ain’t showing up because Ewers is QB. All them DTs we’ve seen were here prior to Ewers. Sark ain’t recruiting a Colt. But if Colt were here upon arrival and won it all, people are lining up to come here.
  13. I will add that Texas was no. 1 in yards per carry prior to that 9th data point with only UGA having a 9th data point too.
  14. Dude, if you’re so old you can’t hear, no wonder you haven’t heard the term.
  15. Yes. I change my mind from time to time. But not about anything presented here. I do agree with Bert. It is not ok to shit on him.
  16. I see no 2024 - Rehashed and revisited thread. Where else are we to play?
  17. The Orlando play call was awful. The PK screen doesn’t hit a chord for me really. This one left the backend little room for error once the pass rush was stoned. I thought it was said it was a cover 4, which could explain several of the reactions. I’ll always prefer having my second level defenders push any throw towards the backend defenders. I’m giving Golden some extra attention. I’m making my QB think. And I’m making him make a throw between at least two guys. None of that happened.
  18. I’m amazed they had two guys doing absolutely nothing but hanging out in no man’s land at about 3 and 7 yards deep. Not a big leave your DBs on an island on long yardage situations fan. It’s recent but this is as bad a play call as I can remember.
  19. You know Sark has won as many national championships as head coach as I have. But he’s lost far more games as Texas head coach than I ever have or will.
  20. Those truly getting a bit personal are very few regarding Ewers.
  21. There’s been very little said positive about Bert since that day. And you highlighted 0-2 when he was 1-3 with 4-4 on extra points. There has no doubt been finger pointing at Bert. The very first miss was 48 yards, roughly a 50/50 proposition. He makes that ASU have 1:30 for a game tyer. Who knows how it goes from there. The offense’s objective is to score and leave no time. Yes, he needs to make one of those.
  22. So it’s ok to shit on Bert? Yeah, he should have made one of those FGs. Ideally, the offense doesnt stall and settled for a 48 yarder. Not what I’d call a satisfactory drive. Thats where Ewers needed to seal the deal. And Sark too. We’ve lost several games because the offense did not finish the deal. Bama 22. OU and UW 23. ASU in 24. Don’t settle for FGs.
  23. Yeah, we don’t have 1st round talent necessarily, but we’ve got some potential, deeper than most believe. But I probably view it differently too. Flores has about as easy power as anyone. Not Ivan Melendez brute strength bat on the ball and it’ll carry power. More consistency needed. Now Max has more brute power. It’s a shame he got hurt because I think he’s a fearful type talent. Obviously, the coaches are putting players in chances to succeed. I won’t down play their efforts in that.
  24. I look up the Perfect Game rankings and some draft rankings when these guys are prospects. I know Tennessee is bringing them in, Arkansas too. UF. But beyond that, we’re right there or better than others. And UF likes to suck til playoff time. At some point production matters. We have a lot of maturity too. Bell for Kentucky looked great but otherwise not much. Irish for Auburn is something but pretty underwhelming otherwise. When watching, I don’t feel we’re outmatched or overwhelmingly fortunate. Arkansas was primed and ready otherwise it’s good pitchers picking us off. That’s been limited too. Hell, I’d say Gasparino, Flores, Farmer have more to give us. I don’t see any reason Rodriguez, Galvan, Schuessler, Mendoza can’t keep on keeping on. DV is the one I see most difficult to sustain. Even a slight drop off and he’s damn good.
