  1. 2 sacks in 3 games? That sounds bad. Wonder what changed
  2. In what world is OU's offense way ahead of ours? They've looked pretty bad in their games, and that's with their QB playing well and not having the yips. Right now that game is a toss up. Depends on which Arch shows up, and which team can decently run it.
  3. It wasn't that difficult because they only had to AI generate an accurate throw from arch
  4. That's probably what it was. He committed extremely early then we stopped paying attention to him when we got in good with Simon and Stewart.
  5. Guillory sounds familiar. Were we heavily recruiting that kid last year?
  6. Fuckin Arnold Manning over here. He's fucked up the drive single handedly Guess you missed the 2nd half last week
  7. Their QB is Jackson Arnold. Not that impressed with Fatty Arbuckle and his D2 QB. If Arch wasn't stuck in the pit of despair I'd feel pretty good about that game.
  8. Because the governor touches little boys
  9. The ball has to be within reach of 50/50 ball getters. Supposedly Mosely is that guy. Maybe even Livingstone since he's 6'4 and a hand catcher.
  10. Sir, allow me to introduce you to UFC fan
  11. Had dumbass not completely changed the offense on the kid overnight and forced him, and most if not alll of his teammates, to play in the opposite of the offense they were suited to it would have been a better situation for him. I dont think his was a situation like Arch. He had worse talent around him due to the staff laziness, and was being forced to play a style he couldn't play. That's the dude I would understand the most if he just smoked Mack in the jaw if he saw him. Don't think I've ever seen a QB get the rug pulled out from under him like that guy did.
  12. Just another example to toss on the fire of the destruction of higher education in the US by fundamentalist nut jobs. The entire US boom starting in the 1950s to becoming the biggest economy in the world would not have been possible without the building of the greatest university system in the world. Which started with a raid of German scientists after WW2 and continued with importing the best minds from around the world on a yearly basis. Now that it is being destroyed it means the US advantage in research and development is gone and will never be back. Better enjoy the military tech superiority now because it will be eclipsed by China before too long.
  13. You jinxed us
  14. How is Hawaii compared to the shit here? When I was there it always felt like the forgotten step child of the US that nmqas never really thought about. The culture was different, the people didn't seem to care much about the goings on in the mainland and vice versa. Right now Hawaii is my "shit hit the fan and I have to get my family out in a matter of days" option. Wondering if it's still mostly isolated from mainland nonsense
  15. If there was any chance at resistance it would have organized leadership at the top. Instead, the democrats are falling over themselves to give condolences for the death of a hate monger who called for their execution, while the entire republican party blamed them and calls for their arrest. Corporate America is so corrupt and weak they pre-emptively bent the knee. The entire "leadership" of the country is either fascist or fascist enablers. Democrat politicians are making their millions too. They have shown they arent going to risk that for the constitution, rule of law, or decency. They throw their hands up and say toothless bullshit like Schumer or nothing at all like most of the rest. They know they aren't leaders and will not fight. This county made fun of France for their government acquiescing to Hitler, but that country was less than 20 years removed from suffering the worst casualties of any nation in WW1. They had reason to not want the fight again. Americans have proven a thousand times more cowardly and corrupt. This government folded like a cheap tent at the first sign of fascism and just completely gave up. Trump spent 4 years lying and crying about the election after he lost. Harris showed up at the inauguration and fucking disappeared. These people have no liberal ideals. They're just opportunists who were looking to profit while nudging the fascism in slowly until trump came and just did it full stop. I think it's time to wipe all of our social media presence off the internet. Lay low and look for opportunities to move out of the country. I've completely deleted anything with my name on it, even though I never mentioned anything political on there. Going to talk to my wife about doing the same. Luckily, my kids dont use social media. Would probably be a good idea if Imma moved this forum to a 1000 rep minimum to access like the IPIHB. Get it out of being indexed.
  16. The only hope is this administration, as evil as they are, are so incompetent they fall on their own faces and give an opportunity to change. That said, after 2024, I have zero faith in the American people to work together to change anything for the better. Even with the horrendous economy we have now, that is only getting worse, we have millions of people actively celebrating hatred and refusing to blame this administration. This admin has screwed things up so badly it looks exactly like intentional sabotage of the American economy. In reality, it's a venture capital government that doesn't care about anything but maxing their own profits by bleeding the country dry of all of it's assets and access to debt.
  17. I liked Simon a lot in this one, at least he seemed to know what gap the play is blocked to go. He's quick for a guy his size and runs with power. We've been lacking a back that can break tackles like he did Saturday. I would like to see him get more snaps with Endries on the field. He was let down by Washington and Winston several times. Washington seems like he knows what to do and can physically get there, he just passes up blocks looking to get deeper to the DB level too much. That one where he passes off to Endries I'm thinking is his mistake, as I can't imagine why you would design the TEs to pass off to each other like that when they're lead blocking playside.
  18. I too thought Wingo needs to run a better route. First off he rounds off the top of the route instead of getting out of the break quicker. Then he just kind of glides. I know he's expecting the ball earlier, and once Arch hesitates he's kind of floating and looking for the hole in the zone. But, because the safety was very late coming up to the route he had time to shift enough to give Arch a lane but sit the route down. Wasn't a horrible route as it was good enough to get the job done against poor coverage, but needs to be better to beat a better DB room.
  19. First look here at an outside zone. The linemen are supposed to get their inside hand on the man to help slow the rusher enough to pass him to the trailing blocker. Then reach block left to wall off the front and give the back a 3 way read. The back reads inside out and looks to see if the guard first has inside leverage and there's a hole. If not, he checks the tackle then finally TE. All while looking for a cut back lane if the defense over-pursues and loses a backside gap. First off, Campbell doesn't get a hand on anyone, and generally looks completely lost on the play. That allows Baker's rusher to easily beat him inside getting backside pressure taking away the cut back. The front side of the play isnt well blocked because Stroh's made gets across his face and the defense is able to get through to the back. The TE Shannon also gets shed and his man makes the primary tackle. Screen_Recording_20250917_185736_YouTube.mp4 This one looks like inside zone and it gets messed up from the start. The TE coming back across formation to take out the backside rusher runs right into Baker knocking them both down. That mucks up the hole forcing Simon to bounce outside. Goosby gets his block but isnt expecting the play to run outside of him. Luckily Stroh actually drives his man back, Livingstone gets his block, and Simon makes a great play. Campbell makes a blatant block in the back he gets away with. Screen_Recording_20250917_190759_YouTube.mp4 This one is just so fucked up I can't even describe it. 12 personnel with Washington and Winston in, and playside neither of the TEs nor the RT Baker block anyone. Just pure shit all around playside. Screen_Recording_20250917_191417_YouTube.mp4 Here it's 12 personnel again with Washington and Endries. UTEP stunts their tackles and it eats Stroh and Hutson up. Washington looks like he's engaging the block but then turns it loose to get to the 2nd level. Endries was expecting him to maintain the block and has to scramble to recover. I'm assuming Washington fucked that up although I don't know for sure. The line had a lot of issues with tackles stunting on their zone blocks throughout the game. Screen_Recording_20250917_192108_YouTube.mp4 Finally the play that produced the screen shot of our 3 interior linemen laying on the ground. Outside zone, they motion Livingstone out of the play to clear the DB and see they have man coverage. On the snap Goosby does his job. Stroh gets beaten so badly on his reach block he falls and takes everyone trying to get to their blocks behind him out. No play better shows that Sark needs to cut outside zone calls down to no more than 2 or 3 a game. This line just isn't built to run this shit at the guard spots. Either that or get Stroh and Campbell out and try 2 other guards. Screen_Recording_20250917_194145_YouTube.mp4
  20. Watched some film of the line again from this game. Pass pro wasn't bad overall. Have some breakdowns in the running game with some video to show exactly what's breaking down. I'll start off with some good stuff from the first drive of the game. First snap of the game. Good ol' gap scheme GY Counter. Endries is the TE (Y) that will pull along with Stroh (G). One of the best blocked runs of the game right off the bat. Stroh pulls and stones his man, Endries pulls and does the same, and pay attention to Campbell. Gets to the 2nd level and drives the backer like he should. 8 yds for Baxter. Screen_Recording_20250917_194457_YouTube.mp4 Next run looks like power left. Campbell pulls this time and gets one of his best blocks of the game. TE is blocking down with Goosby and they clear the hole. This failure is not on the line, it's on Clark. Play looks blocked to go B gap behind the pulling guard and inside the TE if the guard has inside leverage and the TE is blocking down, which they are. Stroh is slow to get to the 2nd level which means the backer probably gets Clark, but should be a 6 or 7 yd gain if he runs the correct gap. Inexperienced running back mistake. Screen_Recording_20250917_194934_YouTube.mp4 Next play is similar except they motion the TE play side to lead then pull the RG Campbell to get the numbers advantage. Again, blocked well for the 3rd straight gap run to start the game. Again the failure is on Clark for not running where the play is blocked. He's supposed fo follow Campbell into the hole but for some reason cuts it A gap right into the defense. Watch the path had he run it correctly right off Campbell's hip. Big gain potential putting him 1 on 1 with a DB. Screen_Recording_20250917_201724_YouTube.mp4 Next play. Looks like inside zone where the linemen make a zone wall across the front and the TE comes back across the formation to eliminate the weak side rusher. Again, this is blocked well and again Clark reads it wrong. The play is blocked to go up inside on the A gap and he bounces it out to the C gap. Had he followed the blocking it's likely a first down. Clark doesn't have adequate running back vision yet. I think this drive encapsulates why we saw a lot more Gibson then Simon in the 2nd half. Screen_Recording_20250917_202511_YouTube.mp4 For shits and giggles let's look at the next play, the 4th down failure where we see the crux of Arch's problems right now. The play design is solid and a good call against coverage. Wingo at the top is the primary read who gets a good release off the line and runs the in breaking route. The TE runs the stop route in front to suck in the coverage and give Arch the winner. It's a timing route and Arch needs to read it and release the ball on Wingo's break. We see him read it but hesitate. He then steps up in the pocket and is so late the window closes and a DB gets in the lane. He tries to rush it and side arm one to Wingo and burns it in the grass. He has to get that timing back before this offense can start winning. Screen_Recording_20250917_203341_YouTube.mp4 If Sark had stuck to this style I think they could have eventually gotten on track. The gap runs and the one inside zone were mostly well blocked. Should have been much bigger gains. Unfortunately, Sark couldn't help himself and reverted back to his binky... outside zone. I'll pull up some examples from a drive in the 3rd quarter where shit falls apart.
  21. Let's not get crazy now. No one is trashier than MMA fans
  22. I have no doubt Arch looks good in practice. This is some mental shit. Most of his bad throws seem to be a factor of him not trusting his reads and hesitating. Then he's a step behind and rushes the throw with shit mechanics. He moves well in the pocket and is getting time to make plays. Just has to trust his read and let it fly on the correct timing.
  23. That song playing at that moment is perfect. All this white on white violence out there these days. Bunch of domestic terrorists
  24. Yeah, I'm not showing that to say anyone should feel bad for them. Shit, we should be feeling bad for ourselves right now. But that's just an example of the lack of community combined with living in a late stage democracy where the oligarchs have taken over and are bleeding the country dry like venture capitalists. Everyone that isnt rich is feeling the hurt to some extent no matter who they voted for, and it's only getting worse. I expect political killings, mass shootings, and crimes of desperation to grow and grow until the fascist regime brutally clamps down. If these clowns even have the competence to clamp down on anyone.
