    Found tweets of most of the deep plays. Here's the breakdown for each.      Play 1 (69 yarder): It's Cover 1 Man.  Jamison is in man on the outside WR and does well until he quits

Bullshit!!!!!!  Fucking bullshitt. SMH I did t expect t this. We got our ass kicked.

It’s not PKs fault but still can’t draw a single holding call

 best DTs in the nation can’t draw a call

Jesus we’re blaming the refs for an ass whooping still?  😂. Stop the ref shit as an excuse.  

Absolute horseshit coaching IMO.  essentially 41 pts to a 2 dimensional team?

It’s why we can’t get a pass rush

 if they call a single hold all game mane they stop holding but until they call it they are just going to hold our NFL DTs all game

Thanks for telling us you don’t know what Washington has done the last 2 years.

This was a pathetic performance with a month to prepare. Period.

 

The offensive performance was not significantly better. We just got worked on both sides of the ball.

Any and all questions and criticisms of Gideon and Jospeh are absolutely more than warranted. We have some of the most suspect DB play of anyone in the top 10.

Our best players are underclassmen. It was a tall task to begin with. Combine that with our inability to get home on Penix makes for a long night.  Just a bad recipe.

Brooks is slow, Watts is slower. Muhammad has great COD, long arms, and good technique, but he's light and young.

The safeties are no bueno. The linebackers aren't great in coverage. We are a limited bunch, and we didn't get any pass rush. 

They were working with an NFL QB, multiple NFL O-linemen, and at least 2 NFL WRs. 

Our only hope was for Penix to miss throws. He was on fire from the first snap. This was the result.

I wouldn’t be sad if Gideon and Joseph were fired into the fucking sun tomorrow.

He was on fire because we played passively. When we attacked this year and tonight, good things happened. Penix was going to beat us on great throws. He made a few of them. We didn’t really make him have to much because of the plan we rolled with until the 4th q. 

That 3rd and 8 and the DBs being 12 yards off the WR is what did it for me tonight, few plays later they score a touchdown. That soft ass coverage came back to bite us. 

Barryn Sorrell got pushed around all night. Zero impact. Collin Simmons is needed from day 1

As I said in the game thread, our secondary is not very talented, Washington's line prevented us from getting any pressure, Penix is ridiculously accurate, and their wide receivers run great routes and catch everything.

What sorcery was PK supposed to have used to counter all of that?

PK didn't have the horses. You can only do so much when Jerrin Thompson and Mike Taafe are your safeties

and that is partially his, Sarks, and the 2 clown shows fault.  it's year 3.

We sorely need edge players with the explosiveness to close down on the QB once they get through the LOS. It felt like we pushed Penix off his spot every now and then, but nobody had the athleticism to finish the play off and bring him to the ground.

???

We tried to play the tight coverage we featured against Tech and OkSt and got torched multiple times.

Penis was picking on basically everyone. They started playing off more to limit the damage, but we were at a solid disadvantage in the secondary. 

 

Brooks made his name by playing super physically with Evan Stewart in some camp reps, then became a 5-star from his increased profile and recruitment. Also has very long arms and big hands and positional versatility. Always been a 4.6 range guy though. It's hard to lack athleticism and have poor recognition too. He's easily had the most coverage busts this year.

Tough when you have no one to really push him at that position.

This program is headed in the right direction outside of 1 area. The secondary. 

Need to add more talent but probably also need a shakeup on the staff in the secondary. New corner or safety coach.

You don't just become Georgia/Alabama in year 3 of a program. We barely lost in the CFP with a relatively inexperienced team.

And edge.

none or DB's were really any good or they are coached poorly.  I'm not asking for a DB backfield consisting of Mel Renfro, Cliff Harris, Charlie Waters, Everson Walls.

I think we're fine at edge. There will be a vast improvement with the talent that's coming in (Moore and Simmons). 

Tip of the cap to Udub, as their line (in pass blocking), WRs, and QB are elite - the best in cfb.  

Also, our DBs are not very good and we do not have a great pass rusher.  

Given all that, PK is not very good against the pass, and I doubt he will ever be.  We don't do anything well in the backend - man, zone, doesn't matter.  I counted probably 10 times tonight that Washington used motion and shifts and they had receivers catching the ball wide open.   I could see it early in the play from my shitty end zone seats.  That's scheme and loading up on 5 stars won't fix it.  I think we will probably get abused by good passing teams as long as he is here.

Yes but by that token hopefully mukuba and the 6 dbs who are all supposedly fast and can cover will help too... And asap if I can dream a bit more

I think it's difficult to judge PK against the pass until we have more talent. There's just no covering up the lack of speed/athleticism at safety between Taffe and Thompson. Against a good passing team you're just at such a schematic disadvantage because you have to do everything in your power to protect those two. 

But PK and Sark should get criticism for not upgrading the talent back there quicker. We beat Washington with just 2 average safeties.

Jerrin Thompson is fucking awful. He blew the coverage against OU and then whiffed badly on that 77 yard TD

Nah, I’ve seen three years. He’s not good against the pass.

I'd be more willing to buy this argument if the secondary didn't struggle against KSU, Houston, etc.

We couldn't generate a pass rush all night - It's a personnel issue solved by a talent infusion or scheme. I felt like I saw too much 4 man fronts, when we do not have the talent to get to the QB organically. UW was blitzing and interrupting our timing on offense. I wish we woulda seen more exotic blitzes and attempts to confuse the UW line in order to get to Penix. Pressure would solve alot of our secondary woes.

Fair, the KSU and UH QBs had record high passing yards against us

Ironic considering it's been one of our stronger positions in our tone wandering the desert. Good news is we should be able to fix it quickly. 

Pass defense has been a weakness for us all year. Nothing that happened on that front should have surprised us. Just not enough experienced athleticism at the moment. Still not sold on Joseph and Gideon, but the personnel just isn't there right now to hold up against a passing attack like that. Good news is, that's probably the last 7th year senior qb we're ever going to face with the way the game is headed. 

I get tired of watching teams like Washington cover all our wr and we have excuses like w have 1 star and pwo as our secondary. Next year we will have a young DL. We have coaches that are supposed to coach them up. Our scheme sucks and is the reason these qbs all have record setting days. If it was just Washington then fine I can live with that but it’s not. It’s not all personnel issues it’s also a schematic issue. PK calls a pussy defense against the pass. 

His insistence on playing base D and not blitzing fucking kills me

We finally blitzed in the 4th quarter and pretty much shut them down. Should have been doing that all game. Penix had all fucking day back there for the first 3 quarterS

Exactly. We need a more aggressive DC. He’s a very conservative DC and doesn’t take many risks, I’d like some more balance towards the aggressive side with blitzes and tight bump coverage that’s mixed in with zone coverage, base D play.

I don't think the DL will be young next year but there are a lot of moving parts. 

If they can find a way to get Caldwell admitted that's a huge influx of experience from the portal between him and Moore. 

Maybe it's time for Sark to rip a page out of the Saban notebook and hire a former head corch as a DC.  Somebody not a stoops or an elk.  

We blitzed throughout the game guys. Their OL far outplayed ours in pass pro. 

Part of that is Quinn in the pocket. Part of that is individual OL failures. Part of that is a guy like Bralen Trice being too much for our guys.

I saw a few snaps where Their TE Westover was blocking Sorrell 1 on 1. Can you imagine JT Sanders even coming close to doing that on Trice or ZTF?

 

We finally started getting some pressure near the end, but Penix was more than able to handle it by moving in and out of the pocket. 

I’d just like to be able to imagine Sanders actually blocking someone.

Pass defense starts upfront. 40 dropbacks and no sacks.

In spite of what happened on the back-end, the pass rush had little positive impact. Not only no negative plays, but limited hits, throwaways, throw before he was ready type plays.
