September 2, 20241 yr “4k” on yttv is absolutely not worth it, unless you need the extra streams with it. Very few games, and usually not the one you want. Save that money, get a 4k apple tv, and set it to output dolby vision. It will either pass-through or upscale, depending on source. It does a fantastic job at it, and saves you over the long run.

September 2, 20241 yr Defensive Deep-Dig by Alex Dunlap on OB. He usually comes out with the OL grades the following day. Spoiler We're back. As always, we'll give some quick analysis along with the tiered rankings (Now through just one game of 2024) and are derived via a proprietary scoring formula, and based on the following advanced charting statistics (please note the distinctions in how tackles, etc. are counted and why these stats will almost always differ from the official university stats and cockamamie PFF): DEEP DIG DEFENSIVE LEGEND ***Also, Please note: -1 point has been added for any defensive penalty outside of defensive pass interference which is always considered a coverage burn and is not double-counted. Also, please note that missed tackles that result in blown contains are counted as blown contains (-1) and are not double-counted as both a blown contain and a missed tackle. Also, please note that exact snap-count numbers may differ from other sources at times, as the Deep Dig does not count plays as defensive player snaps that are blown dead due to penalty, punts, opponent victory formations, opponent kneel downs, opponent spiked balls, extra points or other plays where the player is not technically playing on defense*** Defensive Snap Counts By Week and Percentage of Total Defensive Snaps Played - Through Week 1 Defensive Productivity Market-Share Percentages and Snaps per Production Caused Metrics *Through Week 1* (snaps per disruption caused is colored coded from blue/best to white/median to red/worst): Quick Hits and Thoughts If we were going to base the depth charts purely on who entered the game and when at their given positions in the base defense (there were some interesting players lining up in new spots in what appeared to be situational stuff as we'll discuss in a minute), the depth chart would look like this: SDE: Barryn Sorrell (starter), Ethan Burke, Colton Vasek Interior DL: Vernon Broughton/Alfred Collins (starters), Jermayne Lole, Bill Norton, Aaron Bryant/Tiaoalii Savea (third grouping), Sydir Mitchell/Alex January (fourth grouping), Jaray Bledsoe EDGE: Trey Moore (starter), Justice Finkley, Colin Simmons (although he was technically the second EDGE in the game, but that was in a specialty dime package during the first series) MLB: Anthony Hill (starter), Liona Lefau WLB: David Gbenda (starter), Morice Blackwell, Ty'Anthony Smith, Derrion Gullette OLB: Colin Simmons (sub-package) Nickel: Jaylon Guilbeau (starter), Jahdae Barron, Jordon Johnson-Rubell Outside corners: Malik Muhammad/Jahdae Barron (starters), Gavin Holmes, Kobe Black, Warren Roberson, Jay'Vion Cole, Wardell Mack Safeties: Michael Taaffe/Andrew Mukuba (starters), Jelani McDonald/Derek Williams (second grouping), Xavier Filsaime - Jermayne Lole was the first player to come in for Vernon Broughton after the first play of the second drive when Broughton got put on his back. Lole was unproductive on his small 12-snap sample and we have worries about his anchor in the run game on first blush. - It was a tough start to the game for Broughton, and he wasn't a world-beater, but in the end his play was very encouraging, albeit against a team that wasn't necessarily projected to be able to get the push they were sometimes able to. The important thing is that Broughton has improved and flashed playmaking upside in this game that we had not seen to date. He generated a solo tackle, 2 QB pressures and one batted pass on just 21 snaps, putting his per-snap efficiency at generating production once every 5.25 snaps, a tiny sample but a giant improvement from his meager once-every-14.6 snaps a year ago. We think that this is likely to regress back to the mean to some degree as a sub-6 snaps/production score is Murphy/Sweat-level stuff as you can see on the historical precedent chart below. (For the record, 2024 players will begin getting added on to this sheet weekly in the coming weeks as they reach the 200 snaps minimum threshold). As for Broughton, though, I think we can agree it is encouraging to see a step forward in the first chance we've had to see him in 2024. He's still not a stalwart against the run, but he looks better -- and that's about as good an outcome as we reasonably hoped for. - Aaron Bryant entered the game before Colton Vasek at the SDE. At least we think he did. From the broadcast angle it was really hard to completely verify, but the 4th play of the second drive was certainly a player with a number in the 50s wearing a white towel from the back of his pants the same way that Bryant had his towel affixed when entering the game at nose tackle in the second series of the second half. It doesn't mean anything much to Vasek, as this was likely a sub-package the team was using when it was in run downs where they had an interior DL play as the SDE on run downs. - Jahdae Barron really does play in both the nickel and at outside corner, after starting the game at outside corner for the first two defensive series, he then moved into the nickel replacing Jaylen Guilbeau in the third. - Barryn Sorrell's pressure helped on the Jahdae Barron INT. He didn't get home in this game (no one did), but like last year, he quietly affected the game in ways some people might not have noticed. - Ty'Anthony Smith came in before Derrion Gullette and played next to Anthony Hill at the WLB position. He was technically the third WLB in behind Gbenda and Blackwell. - If you were basing it on this game alone, you would say that Derek Williams is a backup at this point. That was legitimately hard to type, but we can only go based on what we've seen in one game for now and that would be the conclusion anyone would draw if we're basing things on this one game alone. - Sark said that they were trying to play 30 guys on defense in the first half of this game, but that didn't quite come to fruition - there were 23 players who played on defense in the first half: CB Gavin Holmes CB Malik Muhammad DB Jahdae Barron DB Jaylon Guilbeau DE Barryn Sorrell DE Ethan Burke DL Aaron Bryant DL Alfred Collins DL Bill Norton DL Jermayne Lole DL Vernon Broughton EDGE Collin Simmons EDGE Justice Finkley EDGE Trey Moore LB Anthony Hill LB David Gbenda LB Liona Lefau LB Morice Blackwell LB Ty'Anthony Smith S Andrew Mukuba S Derek Williams S Jelani McDonald S Michael Taaffe - The most interesting player not seen in the first half of action on defense was Tiaoalii Savea. - Kobe Black seems specialized at the boundary corner the same way that Gavin Holmes is specialized at the field corner, switching sides of the field to make sure he is on the boundary in-series. - The backups showed a sub-package that looks like it will be in use versus run downs with Savea at SDE, Sydir Mitchell at nose, Alex January at DT, and Justice Finkley at the edge with three linebackers: Liona Lefau, Morice Blackwell and Colin Simmons at the overhang spot. - It won't show up in the stat sheet, but Sydir Mitchell drew a holding penalty on a play where he would have likely made an impact against the inside run without the hold. The sheet shows him with no production, but that is a little deceiving given this fact and the fact that he really did look a little different from the others as far as simply holding the line and making his presence felt. We'll see him play more with more snaps like this. Onward to the offense ...

Sad they bundle the two together, but that's the only way they get people for 4k, else nobody would continue with it for just 4k.
September 2, 20241 yr Regardless of their running performance against Fresno, neither of our starting DTs did much to alleviate concern for this week’s game. Albert Collins continues to be who we thought he was regardless of the offseason optimism and the transfers didn’t impress. My only real concern this week is the interior DL and its ability to hold up against the run.

September 2, 20241 yr Something I noticed rewatching CSU. Bill Norton had to teach Jahdae how to use the turnover sword. Big man saved our season keeping Jahdae from skewering his hand.

Europe is getting to that point quickly as well. The big difference? The area that has to be covered. Lot more space to fill over here, although that should absolutely not be an excuse and only a hiccup. But nope, gotta make that stock go up a 1/4 point.

September 3, 20241 yr I have a feeling Texas is winning this by 14+ or losing, without much grey area. I know that's antithetical to what we're used to seeing with Texas find ways to make most games close, but matchups makes fights. Either Texas gets out in front and Michigan can't keep up and never mounts a serious challenge, or Michigan successfully plays bully ball/keep away and gets a turnover or two as Texas presses. Texas will either win or lose, flaming hot take, I know.

I'm pretty close to this as well. I think if we can get out to a fast start Michigan is in trouble. But if they can run the ball on us effectively (and/or do enough in the passing game to respect the pass), they could drag us into an ugly Big 10 contest where I wouldn't love our chances. It should absolutely be a great test for our offense period. Really interested to see how we fare against an elite D.
September 3, 20241 yr Fresno is a good team, also can’t imagine Michigan not playing much better this weekend despite their deficiency at QB. That defense is too good for this to be a blowout win for us. But I really hope I’m wrong of course.

CSU tried to run the ball to slow the game and keep the Texas offense off the field and they couldn't do it. DTs, including the transfers, were very good. Also...
September 3, 20241 yr I keep telling myself that Michigan was holding it back on Saturday trying to keep the playbook under wraps. But, I am not sure I believe it. Texas is going to hit a few big plays which is going to make Michigan get out of its shell of ground and pound and control the clock. Not sure Michigan has it in them to go wide open. Going to say 17-14 Michigan, Michigan’s defense is outstanding, they will keep Michigan in it and Michigans transfer kicker seems to have a leg. He kicks a long one late and Michigan pulls it out. At the end all the stats look pretty similar except Michigan has about 40 minutes of possession Both Texas TDs come on plays longer than 30 yards, both Michigan TDs are plays less than 4 yards. Go blue. I hope y’all enjoy the northern hospitality.
