Interesting note:  All the assistant coaches were on the sideline during the game except Josh Martin.

Also, Satt said all three sacks we gave up came in a stretch of six plays.  One was actually an RPO where Sims got "stuck in the read."  I assume that means if it was going to be a pass the ball had to come out quickly because the line was run-blocking.

I don't mean to alarm anyone, but I feel like I could actually hear quite a few of the questions in those clips.

Had to be this one, the others were clearly called passes. Looks like the same play (or same concept at least) as earlier in the game with Haarberg coming across the formation into the flat. They covered it well though, and then he did see Scott and Nouili downfield so couldn't even throw it away.

 

Easy to say from my couch, but I don't like the call. Appears that Haarberg is the only option in the passing game, and the guy we're reading (#9) comes up fast (pull the ball) but then drifts over to cover Haarberg. It's a nice play by 9, but any play that is that easily disrupted is questionable to call a second time. Their DC is smart, as far as I know the only 2 plays Haarberg was in were these two. Even if he gave the ball, 20 is unblocked - we might have had the number advantage but they had the play stopped both ways. Rahmir could have helped by coming back behind the line to make a dump off legal, but that's probably not part of the play.

 

Here's the first play, it's the same and 9 learned from his mistake here. Again easy to say now, but I think it's objectively a pretty bad call. Barely worked the first time, and if they give you a pass read and cover Haarberg you're completely out of luck.

Great stuff here, dude.

 

Interesting formation (I mean not like extremely interesting but just cool to see all of the things we're doing slowed down a bit more). This is basically 11 man personnel where Kemp is in motion, and the tight end (Haarberg) is in the H-back spot.

 

Rahmir looks to be the check-down guy. They only bring pressure with their 4 down linemen and we whiff in pass blocking on 3 out of the 4. And there was nowhere to go even if there had been good blocking...but there should have been good blocking.

 

This may be as close as this playbook gets to a "spread" look where nobody extra is home to help pass block and there are 4 receivers. And if we know anything about those kinds of designed passing plays with this offensive line, it's that they can't handle stuff like this at all.

 

Maybe this play works a little better some of the time if Kemp motions the opposite direction Haarberg is going to go. But I doubt it.

Yep - I don't know what options they have to say no, but being the Big Noon Kickoff game sucks if you're not in the eastern time zone. Even 11 central isn't great IMO but they're used to it. They don't do a lot of Pac-12 teams, but they have done some and those are generally 9 am.

Yeah.

[teachercd]

So much for the Big Noon Kickoff!  Haha

 

My god.  I would have been upset if we went to this game as a road trip.  That gives you NO time to lube up (relax you freaks)...then if the skers lose it makes for such a boring a$$ day.

You couldn't get up at 630 and be "lubed up" in 3.5 hours? Wimp

Haha!  I could, that is not the problem.  The problem is it just changes the atmosphere of it all, for me.

 

I am a HUGE pregame party fan and I love starting early but I want it to last (yes yes, that's what she said)
