Why is every band louder than ours? I guess they blow harder?

Good game plan on defense. Shut down the run, it's all Utah can really do on offense. They're not much of a passing team

It’s NYE, cut him some slack.

Not a bad call.  He was in the pocket, threw it before he got hit, and the ball landed 20 yards from the nearest receiver...

The fact that he and the WR weren't on the same page doesn't matter 

Intent matters in intentional grounding

so who is out on D?  Graham and who else?

Brown (and Jones).

I know this is the popular stance here.  but what happened is we're pretty healthy for the first time since game 1. we started the year with 8 new starters on D and we lost 8 players on D in the first 3 weeks of the season.  

We get that, but the scheme at time was ass my dude. Adjust to your best available players and TO refused to do that.

Forgot Jamison got tackled. Anyway, one TD still isn't exactly overwhelming. I remain unconvinced we will win this. Offense is playing about 60% of potential.

Didn’t like the choice to go on 4th. But having them go from the 1 instead of the 25 after a kickoff might have saved a fg at the end so maybe it’s a 10 point lead either way by missing.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that Jamison didn't get in. Still, none other than that gimme.

We don't get "gimmes".  Witness our punterception to the 1 yard line.

injuries is some of it but Orlando never adjusted to what we had left.  he kept putting our DB's in bad positions for no reason.  we have guys out today against a much better team than TCU and ISU and we look competent. this D beats both of those teams.

I am not willing to give Orlando's idiocy a pass for the injuries.  I'm betting Orlando goes back to G5 and never is a high level P5 coordinator again.  dude is a "playmatcher/gambler".  Good OC's fuck those kind of guys up.  

As soon as teams and OC's had tape on him(after the first year) they fucked him up. same as Manny fucking Diaz.

sorry I meant since the game started.  Jones never played right?

Without looking at the actual rule, I don't think that's true. 

My understanding is that only 3 things matter.  

  1. QB under pressure
  2. No realistic chance to make a completion
  3. QB in pocket

Players not knowing how to tackle is inexcusable. It can only happen if the coach doesn't emphasize it. Orlando doesn't prioritize teaching his players fundamentals. He prioritizes his schemes, looks and blitzes. Tells them to just put their foot in the ground and play fast. Some of his game strategies weren't bad and he had some success with that. But it would all work a lot better if he'd taught and demanded sound fundamentals. And he damn well better make sure the 2nd stringers get coached on that too.

Right, just didn't know if you were aware he's out.

They are bitching about the refs.  They later realize it's a SEC crew and are now confused.

I guess you could look at it that way.

I'd go with some SEC crews in the Big 12.  they don't call pussy ball and will actually call OL holding when it is obvious.

Makes you wonder if it isn't a problem with pulling guys up from non-P5 programs.  When you lack talent you need to be exotic, when you have talent, you can actually just rely on fundamentals.

Bob could be just looking for an extra assistant coach for the Renegades..?

  3. QB in pocket
The "no realistic chance of making a completion" is subjective, though. At the time he threw the ball I'm not sure he knew the reciever was cutting off the route. If the receiver continues downfield it's a possible completion. The rule is designed to prevent QBs from obviously throwing the ball to nowhere to avoid a sack while in the pocket. I don't think it can be certain that's what was happening.

But it's similar to a targeting ejection when a defender aims for the chest and a receiver lowers his head and it ends up being helmet to helmet. There was no intent to target the head, but it happened so it gets called.

Don't worry, we're wearing down their fatties in the middle. Things should open up in the second half.

Billy is probably at the game. He goes to Texas games when aggy isn't playing on the same day. 

Let’s fucking go!!!!!Utah fans in sec 112 are shitting their pants.

There is nothing mutually exclusive about tackling and running a lot of looks and unusual packages and blitzes.

Man I would’ve liked to see this D vs LSU.

Well all year.  Simple

this. Tom is still coaching like he's G5 as well.  take the 3, make a stop after the half and go score a TD and end the game.

it is if you can't coach it correctly, especially when you have injuries.

Jah-kwez vs Jakes.

The biggest controversy of the evening.

Thanks Lowell.

And his scheme fuck, putting players out of position and playing intellectually instead of instinctively is what caused all the fucking injuries.

San Analtonio is definitely too tempting for them.

sound fundamentals beat TCU. Maryland, and ISU.  maybe not OU or LSU but the first job is to beat Maryland, TCU, ISU every time.

I know next to nothing about D, but has it really been a simplify and let the athletes run difference?  We seem so much faster and are tackling better.
