Maalik went out and got a good block too…he wanted some action.

[Rickylovesweed 15,441]

Texas had a new wrinkle last night where they were putting Worthy outside and Johntay Cook running seam routes in the slot. 

That's going to be dangerous as hell due to the speed both guys have. On the big Johntay Cook reception the safety helped on Worthy which meant 1 v 1 for Cook with a nickel or LB. 

It's a mismatch nightmare and a simple read for Ewers. If the safety doesn't help on Worthy you go there. If the safety does help you just find Cook with the mismatch.

Anyone else notice AD struggle with some blocking last game early on?
I have not rewatched to pinpoint the plays, but at least 3 times on replays during the action, it appears he misses or is reluctant and plays get blown up.

Not just last game. He's a pretty poor blocker and we need to stop calling plays where he is a critical blocker at the point of attack. 

[SKA the boss 729]

Agreed. That was some drive killing shit. But I'm sure that the coaching staff is working on improving his craft or finding other bodies for those schemes.

Maybe.   Hopefully.

[Rickylovesweed 15,441]

Sark was yelling at AD on one of the missed blocks in the Baylor game. 

I don't think it was a missed block as much as a missed assignment to block a particular player. I think it's a mixture of problems with AD in the blocking department but the main issue seems to be he just doesn't know who to block. New scheme at Texas and maybe he wasn't asked to block much at Georgia? 

He just looks hesitant to block as if he's questioning what he should be doing.

He was barely on the field for Georgia. He's a really good pass catcher, but he is behind on his overall development at the position.

If he doesn't stumble after the catch, he probably houses it.

I think this is the recipe for Sark vs the 3 flyover moving forward. 

Attacking all levels of the defense with Worthy, Cook, Mitchell, and Sanders.

SIAP.

What has become of Neyor? Hurt? Just cannot crack the lineup?

Checked participation chart... only 1 game.

Wondering if Neyor has a COVID year exception available to him ??  He could be continuing to build his strength and confidence back in his knee recovery.  If he stays out next 2 games, Texas has an off week. 

Maybe the game against coogs in H-town 10/21 might be a good time for Neyor to get some playing time again???

Is that a good adjustment on a throw that shows trust in a receiver, a stare down of a receiver that he got lucky was thrown slightly behind where it should have been or it is probably a pick, or something else? 

[LTtxfan 49,977]

 

[LTtxfan 49,977]

That 4th & 2 pass play on the blOU 23yd line to Helm for a TD was a great call that does not count as a red zone score.

Put Texas ahead 14-10 in 2nd qtr 9:27 left.

Nice to see Gunnar score a TD

[LTtxfan 49,977]

Wonder how this chart would look if it was split into two charts... one for passing yds, and one for rushing yds ???

 

[LTtxfan 49,977]

Haven't seen much talk about Coach Jackson

[Hook1997 5,509]

Cook evidently posted on Twitter about being unhappy about playing time and dumbass fans saying leave then and he said bet.   He’s a freshman, wait till next year you will get plenty of passes..

[Had Enough 2,111]

Coach probably shouldn’t say I’d like to get Cook more playing time than not do it.

Hey Cook. Next year as a starter. You get all the playing time.

Coach Erwin frustrated that JWhitt is not getting any receptions... not sure why Sark has not dialed up more throws to JWhitt.  

[Had Enough 2,111]

QB gots to decide where to go with it. At the same time, if your first target is open, throw it. And Worthyis open a lot. I think Whittington is open a lot too.

Oh, because you he's like the 5th option on the team behind Worthy, Mitchell, Sanders, and Brooks. You don't design plays to get Whittington the ball as the 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd option. Now there are times he is open and he should be getting targets because the others are covered. Ewers needs to find those checks instead of taking the 50/50 ball with Worthy down the field.

If that 1st screen was a fake screen and go, Worthy would have walked into the EZ.

 

On the 2nd throw, I think Ewers made the decision to throw to Worthy too soon, and missed a wide-open Whittington. Who could have picked up 30+ yards down the sideline.

Make sure you have the sound on.

Just a bad throw. Read wasnt bad, the throw was. I would bet significant money, Sark has taught him to do exactly that.  If we talking about misses in the 2nd half, you have to talk about the 2 shot plays to Mitchell, where he forgot to run.

this what is looked like from the end zone angle. That is probably a TD, if Quinn hits Worthy in stride.

I don't know about a TD (safety would definitely have a chance to run him out of bounds), but certainly a very nice gain. I do think we have some issues with situational football. Early on, take that shot. But at that point in the game we really just needed the first down and it was there on a platter. It'd be nice if our offense would take the easy yards more often, particularly when it would result in a 1st on 3rd down.
