    Harsin is already gone, Auburn just needs to create an excuse. They dumped their president and AD just to get to him. It's a cesspool over there right now. I don't think they can afford the buyout or he'd be gone. I don't know what your view of TCU is, but it's not. TCU is the second richest private school in Texas behind Rice, and their athletics budget is closer to A&M than it is to Tech.
  2. They should feel confident about this seeing that our referee corps is extremely weak.
  3. I actually agree there. Miami offense looked like trash. They might be worse than App St.
  4. There are studies on "sideline" plays (late hit out of bounds, reaching for sticks) that calls tend to go in favor of the sideline team. But that's group influence in the moment. I don't think yelling after that fact would change a call. Coaches do it to influence the next call.
  5. Without the bizarre safety play it would have just been a poorly officiated game. There isn't a reasonable explanation for the flag being thrown to begin with. Not calling grounding makes zero sense. Targeting without roughing makes absolutely no sense in that circumstance. Not reviewing for the safety makes zero sense. It is really hard to get to a simple "poorly officiated" through all that.

    Fuck Big 12 refs

    This is off topic, but chew on this. If an illegally grounded ball is caught by an eligible receiver on offense, it can't be advanced.

    No but Holiday Inn and a fuck load of the "whats the call" series as a kid. I'm pretty sure it's technically grounding. The no judgement necessary type of technical. The throw would have ended when touched by DMO's helmet. There's bound to be a clarification letter from years' past on this but it's not in the Rules themselves or Interpretations. It is kind of in the NFL Rules but clearly stated in the NFL Casebook: NFL 3-22-4-1 "...If a Team B player contacts the passer or the ball before forwards movement [of the arm] begins, the direction of the pass is the responsibility of the passer, and grounding rules apply."

    The NFL rule is that a QB already affected by a defender before starting his throwing motion is fully responsible for the ball regardless. NCAA isn't as clear.

    You can always review the spot of the ball, including spot of fouls. They weren't confirm grounding. They were probably confirming the yard line or in/out of endzone.

    The film room comedian guy should do a referee edition.
  11. Yeah. Everytime I read an article on their grading processes I buy into them a little less. It's better than nothing, across a season it's probably pretty good. But a run chart like that in a zone run scheme is hard to garner much from. RG might mean any play and has just as much to do with the defense as the offense. 29 vs 22. It's more left but within normal for that sample size.
  12. I'm guessing this is by the gap the run actually goes through and not by aim point.
  13. This game is a trap. Our defense is improved but I doubt it suddenly become the nation's top unit overnight - which is the level that it is playing at right now. Offense is huge question mark with an unknown QB3. Run blocking has taken a step back without the Jones-Angilua connection mauling everything they see. UTSA has really good players up and down the roster and they've been playing down to their competition and against niche offenses. They will play up against us. Guaranteed. Let's kick their asses anyway. Remove all doubt in the first quarter.
  14. I thought stunt at first glance as well, but it just doesn't look like one. Collins is straight downhill then tracking with his block. Sorrell doesn't loop inside, he's just pinned.
  15. This is the long TD run. Did Sorrell just get caught napping? Collins was looking good until he gets tripped up.
  16. The schemes are different both front and secondary, but a lot of it is coming from an improved DL. There's no voodoo magic on this play, just getting after it: Sorrell is better than anyone we had last year, and Ojomo is playing like he's 30 lbs lighter with added strength. --- I can't understand how this chop against Coburn was missed. That's a really dangerous play.
  17. New looks this week: That's a MINT set, which is basically a nickel version of Tite and it plays similarly, but responsibilities are going to be somewhat different. It should always be a four man front. A nickel (Guillbeau) is on the field, so Overshown is in his normal Will position. In MINT, the Will is usually a spin down safety and has nickel/OLB coverage responsibilities. So one moves him out over a boundary slot as pictured because (1) the Jack is considered a fulltime DL, and (2) you can keep safeties 2-deep. Without 2 WR to the boundary it looks like a Tite, but obviously there's a nickel on the field. MINT is an anagram for Match (player match ups, not match coverage), Inside (Tite), Nickel, Two (Deep). Like Baptists, some defenses don't follow all the prongs. To compliment the Tite from nickel, we played our Over from base. It's hard to see numbers here; DMO is at Sam and DTD at Will:
  18. He's definitely not throwing towards #2 in that clip. He's throwing back inside.
  19. I don't think that really has much to do with it as most coaches are hired from out of state. Maybe it does just a bit because alumni demographics impacting alumni hires. But it's a stupid numbers game. If you aren't a program that has been churning through coaches every 3-4 years, the odds are that you haven't had one. 6 of 8 public ivies haven't had one. Texas wouldn't have one except for hiring the worst coach in it's history.
  20. It was against a TE shift. We weren't lined up incorrectly, the tackles shifted to match the offense changing strength.
