Title: Defense is good, offense... Post by: Volznut on September 15, 2014, 03:59:15 EDT Defense is actually not bad at all. This defense pursues well, gets after the QB, tackles well, and they help Oklahoma in check in the second half. Barnett made some big time plays inside, and our secondary is developing a reputation as nasty hitters.
The offenseive line is obviously the weak point, and we all know that - but - jet sweep in the red zone has to go vs SEC teams. Takes too long to develop, runs laterally too long. I do think that faking it and then slipping a pass to the TE in misdirection would be a TD. - Never ever call a shotgun pass with an empty backfield on 3rd and 2 inside their 5. That call was brutal - Jason Croom was a huge disappointment last night. How do you let a 5'11 190 lb CB body you out and get an int when you're 6'5 240? Title: Re: Defense is good, offense...

The very first play of the game was an absolute whiff by an OL. The player that was not blocked stopped Pig in his tracks (all I've watched of the recording). I'm not saying the play would have been successful but if the defender is even engaged briefly we don't lose the big yardage we did. Bandit and I both noted the empty backfield deal. |
