Title: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 01:21:14 EDT I love the pigs, but they need to lose. Time for slot receivers to shine.
Nimrod will definitely get an early touch since it's basically a homecoming. Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 01:55:17 EDT Zone has killed us
Our Mike got smoked like a cheap cigar Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 02:02:24 EDT They fried tons of clock, but giving up only 3 is a win.
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 02:21:00 EDT When we played man we stopped them
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 02:21:32 EDT Boo was in on that defensive series
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 02:22:26 EDT We were in 12s the last 3 plays

Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 02:28:10 EDT I can't tell on TV, but are we in zone on defense to keep an eye on Green?

Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 02:32:37 EDT RB got the ball out. Good effort
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 02:34:34 EDT Carter horribly blew that. Terrible eye discipline
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: 10EC on October 06, 2024, 02:44:44 EDT Ok, it?s time for the offense
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: 10EC on October 06, 2024, 02:46:57 EDT Ok, it?s time for the offense We are getting killed at the LOS Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 02:48:56 EDT Presnap Sprags and Campbell communicated but when the play started Campbell locked on his guy and Sprags passed his guy off for some reason and he sacked Nico
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 02:49:27 EDT At least we had no penalties that possession.
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: droner on October 06, 2024, 03:00:59 EDT Good grief! How many bullets can we dodge?
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 03:11:52 EDT That half could have way worse.
So, uh, can we bench Heard for David? I'm kidding...I think. Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: VinnieVOL on October 06, 2024, 03:14:14 EDT Sigh, sometimes it seems the recipe to stop us is so simple? and when it?s happening it feels impossible to turn around.
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 03:15:15 EDT We were thoroughly dominated on both sides of the ball and are only down 3 :wow:
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: droner on October 06, 2024, 03:15:48 EDT The offensive line had better get it together or this is going to be a sad night.
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 03:16:01 EDT Captain Obvious here. Offensive penalties and an inability to pass block are problematic.

The middle of our line is reliable. Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 03:50:03 EDT Campbell was standing g over Slaughter giving him shizzle
Also every play at the end of that drive there as a LOT of chipiness Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 03:50:21 EDT Jacobe Thomas in for Brooks. May be just the usual rotation.
Regardless, huge three and out Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 03:50:54 EDT 1st sack for Perce and 1st 3 and out

I don't know what happened at halftime, but it's working.
We still need a stop and a score before I'm comfortable. OK, I'm never comfortable. But I'll feel a lot better. :powert: Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 04:02:05 EDT Nimrod's 3rd down conversion was huge.
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 04:02:43 EDT As an aside, I am not a fan of either penalty called.
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 04:15:23 EDT As an aside, I am not a fan of either penalty called. the first was definitely a penalty Didn?t see the roughing Was it a heat to the head?

We still have to score. The defense has to be tiring. Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: 10EC on October 06, 2024, 04:45:25 EDT How many freaking penalties in this game?
Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: Black Diamond Vol on October 06, 2024, 04:48:17 EDT I know their uniforms are very similar to bammer. Maybe that?s why the refs are letting obvious holds go right in front of their face.

Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 05:11:16 EDT Don't like letting the clock go to the 2 minute timeout.
They're going to score. The question is how much time we'll have. Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: droner on October 06, 2024, 05:13:23 EDT I know that the offensive line was having trouble and that we have an inexperienced quarterback. But I think Heupel has gone too conservative.
Those runs up the middle ain't cutting it. And I think that it's going to cost us. To get beat by a FG is a dadgum insult. Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 05:14:50 EDT Let.him.score.you.ignoramuses

Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: Cobbvol on October 06, 2024, 05:54:59 EDT Needed to field that last punt instead of letting it roll 20 yards.
Defense on that last drive should have loaded the box and made the back-up QB throw versus them gashing us with the run as they did.

But we ar managing him like we don?t believe he can. I'm unclear how much Nico is trusted. He's terrific off-schedule, and throws catchable balls, but hasn't done well reading the box. Hopefully this comes in time. The OL hasn't been great, but his internal clock is suboptimal at present. I'm also unclear how much separation receivers are getting. There's a reason we're a run-heavy team. Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: murfvol on October 06, 2024, 05:57:52 EDT Needed to field that last punt instead of letting it roll 20 yards.

Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: PirateVOL on October 06, 2024, 06:53:47 EDT I rarely ID players (specifically avoided it early in the game) but A Carter had a very bad night
Over perused, had very bad eye discipline and was lost most of the night in coverage (had a nice PBU late) He?ll improve, biggest game he has played to date, missing time due to the injury last year didn?t help We rotated a lot on defense tonight At least 4 LBs, 3 consistently Not a good night for the LB crew At safety we rotated 4 a lot Corner not as much but there was some rotation Title: Re: Game Thread: Arkansas 2024 Post by: BanditVol on October 06, 2024, 10:36:00 EDT Not fielding their last punt was huge Our returner makes that decision way too much, IMO.

You gotta beat the teams you are supposed to beat. Then we should look a lot better on offense then, wouldn't you say? 100%. I was at the OU game live with a buddy, and in the past, he was down on Butch Jones way before I was. This was a role reversal! When we went into a shell against OU I said "I don't like this". He said "it doesn't matter, this was over at the half". Well...OU almost pulled within 8 with around 4 minutes or so left in the game. We are fortunate they did not convert the two pointer and that our D held on thier last drive. My buddy was all like "this was really more like 42 to 10 but we took the foot off the gas". I'm like "but it WASNT 42 10, and we should not have taken our foot off the gas". It seems the shell mentality carried over to this latest game, unfortunately. We have the talent. We will either break out of the shell. Or not.

He is a freshman in a high pressure situation, but he initially looks left and when he comes off of that look practically all of the defenders follow his eyes to the middle of the field and begin moving in that direction. Look at Matthews on the left and Sampson on the right - both of those receivers were open. Maybe, just maybe, the offense is limited for a reason.
