    And of course they're going to hit 3 after 3, which every team seems to do when they play us

    Guy turned into Ja Morant against us...will score 12 points in his next game.

    I don't see how JWhitt is open on this play. And Quinn could only afford to hold the ball longer because #4 rushing in unblocked stopped because of the pitch fake.

     

     

    I mean, I think your angle shows him more open than mine, if anything.

    And Hayden was there to protect, if Quinn did hold it a split second longer for JWhitt to turn his head.

    Whatever, I don't care.  I don't like the play.  Why fake the toss to get all the action going to the right, only to throw it right where you have all the defenders keyed-in on, even if Blue was the relief valve?  Just look off to your left, dump it to Blue, and hope he works some magic with the extra bit of head start, if that's the case.

    The play was supposed to go to either JWhitt or Sanders, but when they lined up Washington had 4 DBs boxed on them. Both were double teamed. Check down to Blue and closest DB breaks off to make play. Neither JWhitt or Sanders is going to be open for a quick throw based solely on alignment.

    But JWhitt was open.  #5 passed him off to the DB at the 2, who bailed into the end zone while JWhitt was around the 5.  If Quinn held onto the ball for a split second longer (which he could afford to do) or noticed #5 standing still while JWhitt ran past him, he would've seen it.

    the point he's making a play on JW is 1-2 seconds before this frame.

    2 seconds before the frame, the ball wasn't even snapped.  And he never came close to covering JWhitt because JT ran between them.  Anyway, my entire point was that it didn't seem like there was any other read made.  Maybe Quinn glanced at JWhitt, but if he did, the whole outside of the field was open, with JWhitt already past #5 when the ball was thrown and the DB up top was bailing into the end zone.

     and 5 has an INT on a throw to JW.  no one is open on that play, all 11 are on screen. sucks but the check down was right unless you throw it away. at least throwing to blue gives a shot at a missed tackle.

    No he doesn't.  He's running full steam towards Blue, who he sees is open.  He's not going to stop on a dime and jump up at a ball thrown behind him.

    Screenshot with the ball already in the air isn't the best example.  Grab one before the ball is released and let's see where 5 is and then we can talk.

    this doesn't show JW open, it shows 5 moving toward blue easily a second maybe two after Ewers made the move to Blue. it also doesn't show what JW was running into. the ball is already half way there in this shot. and if you notice, blue has one on one with 5 and has some shake.

    The DB at the 2 yard line aligned with JWhitt is bailing and in the end zone by the next frame, with all momentum backwards, which is why you can't see what JWhitt is running into (he's a good 5+ yards off).  JWhitt also turns his head in preparation for a pass the same way Blue is in the next frame.

    I'm pretty sure Sark covered this. It wasn't designed for Blue. I don't know why Quinn did what he did, but Blue wasn't the primary design of the play. 

    I never said Blue was the primary target.  I'm questioning "why did Quinn only lock into Blue and not see that JWhitt was wide open?  Especially when Blue wasn't the primary target."

  8. 7 minutes ago, Dahobbs said:

    No one is saying that Quinn made the best read there. Only that the play wasn't designed to have Blue as the primary target. 

    And that's my point.  Blue was literally the only read Quinn made, if you look at the replay.  I could understand not looking at the left side of the field due to the alignment, but he didn't even scan for JT or JWhitt on the right side (JT was pretty much triple-covered and if he saw JWhitt open, we would have been set up around the 3-4 yard line or better).

    We had 15 seconds to run the 4 plays. You can't sit back with your thumb up your ass taking 8-9 seconds on a play.

    JWhitt was wide open beyond Blue at the same time he threw it to Blue.  It wouldn't have taken any longer than it took to throw it to Blue (maybe one extra second), plus JWhitt could've stepped out of bounds if he was worried about getting tackled inbounds.

    Because the first two reads were covered up based on defensive alignment.

    So the play call was to fake the toss to Blue, only look at Blue the whole time based on the D's alignment, and then throw it to him while under virtually no pressure, while JWhitt was open near the 4, near the sideline?  We had 4 receivers plus Blue on that play.

    Personally, I find the Elite 8 loss last year in men's basketball to be a lot "tougher to take."

    Had Disu not been injured we would have certainly won against Miami. The final 4 game against UCONN was pretty much the national title game when you saw the other side of the bracket. 

     

     

    I find this loss tougher to take because basketball isn't a real sport.

    The problem on those last 4 redzone plays is it looks like we were just trying to run quick routes to ensure we were able to run 4 plays. 

    Just get 2 or 3 quality plays in instead of running low percentage plays in order to save time. 

    Well, we still needed quick routes because one sack could end the game. But I'm still confused by the first down play, where Quinn fakes it to Blue, continues to stare at Blue, and throws it to him, without ever looking anywhere else on the field. Or at least that's how I remember it, with the cavaet being it's currently 3:30am here on the East Coast and I may be delirious. Why throw it right where the action was faked to? That can't be how that play was designed.

    I’m sure it has been discussed already but what happened to Keilan’s arm?  And why put him back in at kick return when Blue looked better?  Also why was JWhitt returning punts?

    Injured his hand in practice.  Sark maybe thought he could use the huge wrap on his hand to club defenders away, maybe?

    Should have taken a delay of game or intentional false start to move back and get more room. Always hard to score at the 10 yard line when the defense knows there's no longer a threat of a run

    While it would've been better if we were further back, I'm pretty sure UW wasn't worried about the run when any tackle short of the sticks ends the game.
