I dont have an issue with PFF grades as a data point, but asking a word prediction machine for them and posting the response here seems like a great way to fuck up the otherwise pristine and wise commentary that I come to surly for
-
Can we stop posting AI answers on PFF grades? It’s taking an already meaningless (but fun) metric and making it inaccurate

Also the best comp for Stroh that I haven’t seen mentioned yet is true freshman Cole Hutson shudders

This got me thinking about Bijan running behind the 2021 OL. That line was Jones / Okafor / Majors / Angilau / Kerstetter. Even though we’re crashing/strohking out on this thread, I think this line is better than that one? I have a lot of memories of Bijan getting hit behind the line that year, but maybe the memorable part is him breaking tackles and getting highlight runs. At least this one generally pass blocks well.

To this point, I care much more about how we play against SHSU than UTEP. If we can get our starters out in the middle of the third quarter this week, that’s success in my book, even if there’s still some frustrations. Improve on penalties and 3rd down, rotate a ton, and peak next week going into the bye. If we look great against UTEP then sloppy against SHSU the bye week is going to be miserable around here.

We’ve been sucked into rehashing last year’s run offense (again), but I want to point out that the original claim was that we’ve struggled with running the ball against quality opponents for 4 years. That’s Sark’s entire tenure. Wild claim. Some have forgotten that our run offense was far ahead of the pass game for multiple years and featured these highlights: - We closed a season running wildcat because all our QBs were hurt - We won multiple games by shutting down the offense and only running the ball in the second half - The biggest complaint about our first CFP loss was that we didn’t stick with the run - We had 4 OL and 5 RBs drafted (that I can remember off the top of my head) I don’t have the time or desire to go into individual game box scores, player accolades, or coach advancements, but it’s just not true that Sark/Flood are incapable of putting together a good run offense that performs against good teams. It is true, however, that Sark’s tenure is now long enough that people are forgetting what actually happened along the way

Agree with the general idea (fact) that Arch has more time in a college system than most first time starters this decade, but the playbook this year is pretty clearly different than the last couple years lots of the same concepts in the pass game but there’s still a learning curve to executing in a new way

Yeah, I'm not trying to say he's a space player. Just someone that can run to the sideline fast enough to keep contain. I guess I'm assuming there's some additional pursuit from the backside. -

We have a lot of guys that can do it and we’ll mix up who does it down to down. Hill and Simmons have been great at it but Smith, Moore, Spence, Lefau, Zina should all be more than capable Burks and Kanak both looked better than expected yesterday. That’s good news for them -
Uh, TEs are our best performing unit through 2 games. What are we doing here?
-
I'm also expecting a CSU box score, but Waddlington mentioned on his pod that SJSU took 7 deep shots against CMU. So we'll have some opportunities to get after the QB if that holds. (I think it ways 7 of 20+ yards but the 7 number might have included intermediate throws of 10+)

OSU also turtled half the game. Got me thinking back to the Turtle Tom days. First time I’d thought about that part of Herman’s tenure in years

QB School’s (JT O’Sullivan) breakdowns of Arch and Sayin/defense are both free to access at his Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theqbschool I haven’t watched the Sayin one yet but his takeaways from the Arch breakdown (including his thoughts on other players) - Really poor decision making and too many noncompetitive throws, but also some big time throws. Too early to panic - Run behind Goosby more. He made the most movement in the run game. Some plays where he didn’t get the run scheme (especially on the backside) - Confused by a couple of the pass concepts we ran. Some didn’t seem like there would ever be anywhere to go with the ball. Used to seeing better from Sark, but he was also in a tough spot when you build a gameplan expecting a certain level of execution and you don’t get it from the start - Receivers didn’t create separation. OSU defense really fast - Livingstone deserves more targets - RBs (especially Wisner) need to get vertical faster on some plays - Was very confused by OSU fans’ “THE” t-shirts and signs -

Yes. That’s why I’m not trying to make my comment specific to Sark. Your expectations for improvement will still depend on your opinion of Sark’s game planning and play calling. I just think the look of a winning offense is drastically different than it was 5 years ago, so we need be looking at our offense in the current landscape instead of comparing it to the great units of the past.
