  1. I think we'll need more. Ohio State is going to need to make some mistakes. And we need to be forcing those mistakes.
  2. Juan Davis needs to play very limited minutes. He is a decent receiver and a minus blocker. Helm isn't an all world blocker or anything, but at least he fucking touches his man. For the life of me I can't understand why Davis has seen the minutes he has. I guess it is because of Bond's injury limiting our ability to play with more WRs, but frankly I'd prefer to have a two back set in with Blue out wide or in the slot than two TEs with Davis. He should play to give Helm rest and that is about it.
  3. We've seen that crosser plenty this year. But it was much more common before Quinn's injury.
  4. Having seen pictures of the ASU coeds, I'm 100% in favor of this.
  5. I think he is going to need near 100 yards receiving on Friday for us to win. We have to target him early and often. We are better when he is a huge part of the offense.
  6. Oh thank god. Big 12 crew would 100% have intentionally fucked us.
  7. We are going to be yelling about pad level a lot in practice this week.
  8. @Mitch Cumsteen is your wife looking for more stuff?
  9. You played Tennessee without the engine of their offense. And a huge part of their offensive stats were built against Chattanooga (718 yards) and Kent (740 yards). Texas is well above them in opponent adjusted metrics.
  10. Goosby makes his block and the play works. The DE is being read by Quinn. He crashes the run and Quinn throws to Helm.
  11. Is it an outlier? Or are the last two weeks the outlier? The Penn State game, Nebraska, and Michigan games suggest the latter. OSU's offense performed essentially the same in both Oregon games. It was the defense that was the difference.
  12. Yikes. Major had a rough game run blocking. And I don't see what purpose Juan Davis serves as a blocker. Either bring in another lineman or replace him with a receiver and stop condensing the formation. He cannot block. At all.
  13. At the snap the safety immediately plays run. If that is a play action or RPO pass, the safety would have taken himself completely out of the play. He is moving forward, so he wouldn't be able to assist on Wingo or stay with Helm if Helm actually ran a route. It looks like they gave us a look that would convince us to run, and then took it away by having the safety immediately attack the run.
  14. Did he? Arizona State's leading receiver was Skattebo with 99 yards, and 62 of those came on a single play against Taaffe (with OPI). The next highest receiver was McClain who had the one catch from Scattebo against Muhammad for 42 yard TD . I don't really remember Muhammad having to do much else.
  15. Ohio State will never see it coming.
  16. No fucking shit. I'm pretty sure you could write that about every single player in college football.
  17. Wisner doesn't seem surprised to not get the ball. Golden also looks like he is running a real route to me and even turns and looks for the ball at the 34. Moore and Goosby both appear to intentionally stay within 3 yards of the LOS on their blocking. Wingo (I think) at the bottom of the screen is setup to block, but isn't initiating contact downfield. It is almost like we are running two different plays.
  18. Early season Bond ran great routes. I don't think he is lazy. I think he can't cut due to injury.
  19. No he wasn't. He took a couple steps to his right, but not enough to leave the tackle box.
  20. Our dline is going to make life difficult for your offense in ways that Oregon and Tennessee couldn't. I don't buy that 3 weeks fixed your oline anymore than I bought the Clemson, Kentucky, or A&M games fixed our run game. Your team made a nice changeup and took advantage of good matchups. Howard is going to have to make reads against coverage and he is going to have to do it under pressure.
  21. He caught the ball, transferred hands, and then immediately rolled over with the ball securely in the same hand. Playing in slow mo and cutting off the end is misleading.
  22. Agreed. We also will not be running man against them all game long. Howard is going to have to read a defense and not just find his matchups.
  23. PFF guys had a good video on this. Ohio State went from essentially not running counter to running counter on 50%+ of run plays in the playoffs. They posited that it was the influence of staff that spend time with Mike Norvell and that they essentially installed Norvell's offense after the Michigan loss. Tennessee was completely unprepared. Oregon may have believed it was opponent specific and didnt expect it to carry over.
  24. It is absolutely scheme here. Our run scheme is heavily dependent on our line getting to their spots before the defense. If the defense gets there first, it blows up all the timing. We should be able to adjust to that and punish it. But for whatever reason we cannot.
