Peach Bowl: Texas vs Arizona State, Jan. 1, 12:00PM, ESPN
Because the vast majority of analytical systems say Ohio State should be favored by even more over Oregon than the current point spread.

We should recruit their punter. Low mileage on his leg.

Um, no. In chronological order they are Bobby Layne, Duke Carlisle/James Street (depending on if you go for individual brilliance versus team results), Vince Young, Colt Mccoy.

Going for ankles is how a strong runner steps through tackles, that's a terrible idea. If you want to go low your target should be between the thigh pad and the knee and wrap up the legs.

The spying was dumb but they stop us there if #20 sticks with his shallow flat responsibility. He was worried about Golden crossing beyond the sticks but if he stays shallow that makes the throw to Golden almost impossible to get over him but to Golden in time to keep him in bounds.

People only think Klubnik was much better than Ewers if they're Texas fans. If you were a Clemson fan you would have noticed Klubnik's mistakes, including huge mistakes in game clinching situations. Just check out the 4th and 6 where we sealed the game. Taafe blows up the crossing route because he committed immediately to it. The proper read for Klubnik there is to hit the post route which was open because their slot had two steps on our DB. That would have made the game 38-31 with an onside kick to come. But QB haters don't notice that on other teams, just their own. Kind of like Klubnik throwing up jump balls that get caught because their WRs beat our DBs makes Klubnik better than when Ewers throws up competitive balls and our WR doesn't bring it down (Wingo at 5:00 in the 3Q - he was interfered with but going up for the ball at least draws the flag if you don't catch it), or bad throws to wide open receivers where their WRs save Klubnik (Antonio Williams on the sideline first play of 4Q), when it's the other team that's just the QB making a play. When it's your team that's a bad throw omg!

Based on Ewers's excellent checks into the Blue touchdown runs yesterday, he should probably just pick whatever play he wants and audible out of the Bundlé Savé play anytime Sarkisian calls it.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
Continued deflection with zero supporting evidence for the argument. And your gotcha is that if we don't win three more games in a row against playoff competition resulting in a national championship then you're right with zero logical explanation. Nobody is fooled by this absurd argument you're making.

Do you think nobody noticed that you didn't point out any mistakes whatsoever in this gigantic deflection of a post?
-
Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
No, because only an idiot would have an issue with a QB who made one mistake all game that was still a catchable pass. You can try to deflect with "internet points" references but try not being a dipshit and explain what specific issues you have with his play. In reality you're the one trying to get internet points because the easiest thing to do is bitch about the starting QB.

It you're dissatisfied with how Ewers played today then you're a moron

RIP Rickey Henderson
Rickey and I got in a conversation at the Astrodome when he played for the Padres. There was a runner on 2nd with 2 outs. Astros hit a single and Rickey tried to throw out the runner at home. Sailed the cutoff man. Batter advanced to second on the throw. I literally screamed to him (I was 21) "Rickey can hit, Rickey can run, but Rickey can't throw, hit your cutoff! Now there's another RISP!" He flipped me off. Next batter hit a single. Runner scored from second. After that he tipped his cap to me from left field. Along with Pedro Martínez my favorite player ever I watched live who never played for Houston.
