  1. I would avoid the post route with a safety over the top like the plague if I was Sark. It’s not high percentage throw from Ewers and arguably his worst.
  2. It was obviously a combination of no run game, Sark not leaning on the run game when we finally got it, and Ewers missing on a couple of key throws. Bad pick on Ewers but the other half of the blame should be why we’re calling that play given all the context of the situation. This is a big moment for Sark to look himself in the mirror. Anyway, Ewers bailed the entire offense and Burt out. Clutch throw after clutch throw on the final three series’ of the game.
  3. Humble brag
  4. It’ll be interesting to see how 1st and 3rd are looking about midway through the season. I don’t think Farmer will take Gasparino’s spot in CF.
  5. I don’t know if I would classify it as a “leaping” catch.
  6. Same. It’s the simple stuff like this that if he continues to do, we can make a run.
  7. He’s got about 3 “wtf am I doing” plays a game. I’ll take that unprovoked slide as one of them any day.
  8. Don’t think it was. Lets hope not at least
  9. It’s not uncommon to do that though. Whether it’s a walk up to the line or quick snap, I don’t think that was smart. Outside of Connor being the back up, he’s also not the best guy at moving people at the point of attack.
  10. I don’t know why went under center with Arch and a back up center in. Thought that was a perfect RPO opportunity with Arch.
  11. Is that Schloss in the corner celebrating? If so that’s pretty cool.
  12. I grew up in the area. They’re doing exactly what Celina did back in their hay day. Prosper is getting new schools left and right, Celina is starting to build new ones, Melisa and Anna aren’t even recognizable from just 10 years ago. VA just built a new high school with like 3 other elementary schools. But you’re telling me Gunter only had 11 students move in from the last realignment? Half of which were athletes.
  13. Prosper is growing non stop. Celina is trying to slow play it as long as they can, and them only being 4A D1 is still small for the amount of development going on. Gunter is straight up fudging their numbers to stay 3A.
  14. Out of the GCG, Majors is the only guy that got significantly better. Connor is still soft in the run game and Campbell is a roller coaster with Hutson coming into relief. I’m not sure which unit is better than the other, but the only things that are consistent with last year and this year is Banks being elite, and penalties. Flood has got to figure out the penalties.
  15. Ewers had 175 air yards and 183 YAC. The Moore td reception was 41 yards and I believe the biggest chunk play from a throw 5 yards or less.
  16. I think we should be scoring more no doubt but the ‘21 class from Bama had 5 offensive first rounders. The covid year was 4. 2 first round Qb’s and Wr’s in back to back years. Hopefully he gets Texas to that point eventually.
  17. The second paragraph is interesting. After Tua won the championship game this talk was getting out to the public. Saban drew the line in the sand and when Hurts officially crossed it, the switch was made. Maybe if Saban made it earlier his life is a lot easier that season.
  18. Ah yes, an opposite hash throw across the field with the left side screaming down on you as the ball leaves your hand is a basic one. And asking a receiver to make a play on a ball that hit his right shoulder pad is a fantastic one. This whole play was a shit sandwich from start to finish and I’m not going to put the blame on one guy. Although I do think, like I said in my original post about the play, a guy like Golden probably catches that ball. I get you and have agreed to such. The ball placement was bad and as a receiver breaking out it’s a tough play. If you’re saying that he could have caught it then it is a catchable ball. As a receiver that is better than nothing. We’ve seen this receiving core make tougher catchers on worse throws from Ewers all season.
  19. It was a poor throw but your acting like Bond had no chance to catch the ball. The throw could have been a lot worse than it already was. I’m not sticking up for Ewers and saying it was all on Bond. I know it’s hard for this thread comprehend, but multiple things can be true on a single play and this is one of those imo.
  20. Christ on a cracker, I’m not even going to entertain that last sentence. I acknowledged where the throw should have been. At the same time, the ball literally hits Bond on the right shoulder pad and it’s not a one handed try like you’re making it out to be. That’s a normal drop or a catch with any other receiver on team. Poor throw by Ewers, poor effort by Bond.
  21. You’re correct. I could be in the minority on this play but he had guys screaming on his left side and needed to get ball out. It wasn’t perfect but it hit Bonds in the hands and if it was Golden, Wingo, Bolden or Helm that ball likely get caught. Sometimes you needs to help out your QB and not be lazy and catch the damn ball.
  22. Outside of the Beck portion, I agree will all of this. I think Ewers has RSF(Resting Sad Face), I don’t blame him for how he looks on the sidelines. Ewers did not lose this game and the blame should be from top to bottom. Almost every area had a faults last night. But this was the game to prove all the doubters wrong. When the Oline is getting man handled in the run game, receivers are uncharacteristically dropping passes, Sark having questionable play calling, and Bert absolutely shitting his pants—this was the game to put the team on your back. He failed in that aspect. He had plenty of opportunities to grab the game by the balls and win it. Ewers succumbs to the pressure when his team needs 1 or 2 throws from him when the lights are bright.
  23. I think it’s pretty evident that the Georgia Dline has our number in the trenches. They gotta figure that shit out because there was too many battles being lost for the supposed top 3 oline in the country. Wisner also isn’t the best back against this Georgia team. Auburn has to go. Period. But with all those negatives, there were throws in a game that Ewers needed to make in order to overcome the failures of the others. I’m talking about 3-5 throws. That is the difference in these close games. If you’re not going to do it with your legs then you damn sure better be poised in the pocket and execute. The latter is significantly harder than the former. Ewers simply misses that consistently in his game. I got to agree with Brian Robison said on the OTF post game. It’s not necessarily what Ewers can do but what he does in the biggest moments. Turnovers suck no matter what but his are almost always in the most critical situations and doing it in a way that a 3rd year starter shouldn’t be doing.
