For anyone thay wants more than a 4-team playoff
Had Enough replied to GreenspointTexas's topic in Football
I commend you for this. No system was better than when Texas-USC played. The flaws as they are now isn’t just about who gets in either. Ole Miss and Oregon were gifted first round wins. People bag on A&Ms schedule, but I think the A&M win over ND is better than the Ole Miss win over OU. I believe Ole Miss has now played 9 home games. They haven’t proven shit. Oregon hasn’t either but at least their strength of schedule is solid. Another element is that OU had an extra week to heal and prep for their game. They probably lose by 30 otherwise. It’s not about that one game. It’s about an advantage that they in no way earned. Tech earned the bye exactly how? Oh right, they beat BYU. But actually that may be worse than the 5 seed as Oregon runs less of a risk of being rusty while playing a home with almost no chance of losing. There are simply too many teams, too few games and too many unbalanced schedules. Personally, I don’t care that a 9-3 gets a chance against a 0 or 1 loss team. But this year, we were a true threat to everyone. Most years, damn near all years, that is not the case. There was a discussion on this very site about scheduling tough non-conference games with a number of people convinced that a more inclusive playoff encouraged that. I’ve read many convinced that such a schedule is not conducive to a playoff invite. The more teams you include the more teams there are that cannot incur an additional loss. We’re talking mid tier P4 teams that are hoping in their best years to secure one of the few remaining seeds. Hell people aren’t even smart enough to realize conference championships can be de facto playoff games. You won’t get certain parties to relinquish power within the structure. You can’t even get 30 people on here to agree to the parameters. For those reasons, smaller is preferred for my tastes. -

But I never let em catch me in such situations. -

And yet in 2023 our 3rd down defense was #2 in the country. I think #8 in 2024. -

Georgia was at home and went for it on 4th and 1 from their own 35 up 14-10. Then later that same drive, 4th and 5 and we jumped. Followed up with an onside kick. And by the way that 4th and 1 was a tackle over throw to the flat, likely a play they haven’t run all season. That’s not exactly dominating a team. Nothing consistently there used to beat his ass. Last year, the offense was poor in game 1 and couldn’t finish drives in game 2. -

From my general experience with the game, I’d prefer larger, fatter guys to have to chase me around the field attempting to block me. That was always to my advantage. That’s a screen play. If I read it sooner rather than later, the play was likely dead. 2nd and 3rd level defenders don’t keep dropping after they’ve read screen. If you “know” it’s coming, then it makes blocking the defender incredibly difficult as you get caught between setting up the play and blocking the man. At least that’s my line of thinking. -

In order for a screen to work, the defenders have to be caught unaware. No matter the defensive play call. Blitz or not it’ll come down to play recognition. -

If everyone was expecting it, it would have never worked. It was drastically different than the Orlando call. One was terrible, the other overly criticized. -
The Chiefs Oline was terrible the year the Bucs beat them in the Super Bowl. It’s not great this year. That’s somewhat of a recurring theme. As someone mentioned the Clyde Edward’s draft selection was awful. As for Worthy, he got hurt game 1 this year so that set him back. His contested catch rate is higher than Kelce and Rice. His drop rate is lower than Kelce and Rice. He’s 3rd in targets. Dude had 12 TDs and over 1,000 yards when including the playoffs. Hes not 100 catch, 1,500 yards, 15 TD kind of guy. He has had a disappointing year, but the team result isn’t about him. It’s a little unusual that they have duplicate parts in Brown, Thornton and Worthy.
-
There will be debate as to how persons define a drop. For PFF purposes, I’m not certain whether they called it a drop or not. In any event, I reckon my point was more that, drop or not, his WR skills up to the point of the catch attempt made the catch attempt far more difficult that it should have been. Either way you end up at the same place. Incomplete rather than a huge play.
-
You could be right. This is not a dropped pass, but the more I see it the more I think it should be a catch. You can’t make your QB guess where he thinks you’ll be, he needs to anticipate where he expects you to be. With Wingo, it’s difficult to tell which one you get.
-
I seem to recall a throw to Golden last year in which a poster labeled it a “drop” in the end zone versus the Dawgs. It had some modest similarities to this one. Wingo is an interesting WR. He has some skills but seems to lack the innate ability to just go get the ball. It would be curious if that shows differently in practice. I can only recall 1, maybe 2, passes in which he adjusted to catch the ball.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Had Enough replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
Agree. To an extent. They beat ND on a last minute FG at home. UF on a two game losing streak and reeling. Then USF on their game 3rd game of Boise-UF-Miami. Pitt is not good. One last point on the ACC as a whole, of those top 7 ACC teams, they were 1-3 versus the Big 12 with the only win over Colorado by 7. Looks like Miami didn’t leave home until October and only 4 road games. Not near enough critique of what they’ve done. -

And no one cares that Miami played 4 of 6 worst teams in the conference and only 2 of 7 with winning conference records. And collectively thst conference allowed Duke, 1-3 in the non-conference, to make the championship. Illinois beat Duke by 26 at Duke. The best teams they’ve played were at home, two of which were when that team was at their worst. It should be Virginia or bust from the ACC. -

I’d just like to add that Kentucky beat Auburn by as many points as did A&M, OU, and Bama. -
Sure. Teams gameplan. Got it.
