  1. Well it's true if you just watch the play. He clearly looks to two reads before progressing to Wingo. The playcall was interesting because of what you mention but Wingo was hit on an in-breaking route near the hash, so it's not like the explanation of having to hit on the sidelines proves it was a single read.
  2. Well since your post starts with a 100% false premise it's tough to respond. Neither play was a quick one read pass play called by Sarkisian. The Florida play had multiple options and Wingo was his third read. The MSU play was an audible by Caldwell. We still don't know shit about fuck when it comes to how good or not good Caldwell is but you should probably try again.
  3. It can be impossible or it can be very easy depending on what lingering symptoms you have. If it's just a headache that's obviously easy to fake.
  4. That's the entire point. 1.6 seconds is not enough time for a slow processor to get to a second read. It's plenty of time for a quick processor to do so. The question is what is Caldwell? He released a throw to a 3rd read 3.1 seconds after the snap and threw it before Wingo was open instead of after on the Florida throw but the fact I'm calling it "the Florida throw" means we haven't seen enough to know anything.
  5. His seat should be burnt orange instead of green as an obvious visual honor.
  6. Username checks out /obligatory
  7. Football versus basketball at Texas in a nutshell.
  8. Correct. Makes you wonder how he got a high profile job during that mess, what institution would hire a coach who turns a blind eye to grievous sexual misconduct? Oh.
  9. He was QB coach with an AHC title so having sheets makes perfect sense. He probably also had some input during games. Lane Kiffin was the OC and playcaller.
  10. There's no way he's playing this week. Well I should say there's no way he should play but I've seen dumber stuff. Schedule sets up to miss one game and have 3 weeks to recover. Any guess on how he is 3 weeks later is just that, a guess. Recovery times vary greatly by person but 3 weeks is pretty average for full recovery
  11. 1. This is the dumbest argument about that game. Reggie Bush was never getting the ball that play because it was short yardage. Lendale White was getting it. Jesus Christ himself lining up in the backfield wouldn't have been a decoy. White had been shoving it down our throats all second half and any other call would have been dumb. Plus Bush was way more likely to get stopped short of the LOS (also more likely to break a big run but that's not what they needed). 2. Steve Sarkisian wasn't the OC and wasn't calling plays, ding dong.
  12. 18 posts. Almost dead. We can do it.
  13. Wait, there wasn't a stupid Texas! Fight! thread this week was there? I don't remember seeing it, and I usually remember because my eyes hurt from rolling so far back in my head each week when I see it. So we didn't have that thread and our offense finally woke up and we had one of the greatest comeback wins in program history (please pay no attention to the opponent). At this point, if this is accurate, we can all agree to kill that stupid tradition, right?
  14. It's a correct view overall but it's not NIL or the playoff, it's the consolidation into superconferences that is the primary thing depressing records. When the top 20 teams were in 8 different conferences it was much much easier to be a 10-2 team.
  15. That OL just got its ass kicked all night. It's part of why he is getting fired.
  16. There's not a single moment once it hit his hands where he wasn't in control of the ball. It was a perfect catch and he secured it on first contact with zero hint of a bobble. I mean nobody here will believe it (nor should you I guess) but as soon as it happened live I yelled out that he had it with his left foot still down. My wife, to her eternal shame, disagreed and said no way. Then the replays came.
  17. After last night the situation with Sarkisian and Manning is even more frustrating. Arch is not what Sarkisian needs to run his preferred offense. Sarkisian wants a pro-level processor back there and if he had one (and a competent OL) our offense would look stupid good. Colt McCoy would have won the Heisman with Steve Sarkisian as his head coach and playcaller. But that's not what we have. The frustrating part is that Arch Manning has a lot of physical tools and could be an extremely productive college QB if Sarkisian would stop trying to force him into what he's not good at doing. It's sort of like a 2020s version of Greg Davis trying to make VY a traditional dropback passer. Sarkisian played QB in the 1990s and he wants to run all the best parts of 1990s NFL offense with more modern formations. I mean that's obviously a large simplification but accurate enough for a message board.
  18. Why would you feel guilty about them getting a call correct?
  19. 3rd and 4, 1:20 left. We have all the momentum. MSU lines up in 10 personnel. Our entire defensive backfield lines up 8 yards off their man. When the QB takes his set, literally every single receiver has a first down by simply running three steps to the line to gain and waiting for a pass. PK has been great overall and I understand his overall defensive philosophy. But sometimes game situations should dictate changing things up. This call demonstrated zero game awareness.
  20. 37:07 what in the world was up with Lefau on the shovel pass touchdown (MSU's last score)? He's a great LB for us but that was, uh, not great.
  21. Kelly is such a tremendous asshole they better hope that offset language requires him to look for another P4 HC job in good faith because he might decide to just sit on his couch. Although to be fair I'm only a mediocre asshole and I'd sit on my ass for $53 million, too.
  22. Maybe he meant competitive for air time and sideline celebrity athlete appearances.
  23. Maybe he's upset about being a great coach who has actually accomplished things and never gotten the attention he deserves versus the guy on the other sideline.
  24. Yes, they are well-coached and execute their assignments very well. They are not the most talented but a team that is assignment sound is not the kind of team that the opposite type of squad, an undisciplined group of athletes who look lost most of the time like us, beats very often.
