HuskerfaninOkieland Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 “It’s a little frustrating in a sense, because they peck away at you,” USC coach Pete Carroll said. “They attempt to play keep-away from us, I think, is what offenses have done. I think Nebraska probably sent a little message out in that regard and teams are trying to do it in their own style.” LJS Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 From the games they have played thus far, it seems to be true and other teams have fared as good or better because of better execution. Quote Link to comment

But that is an interesting perspective from PC. Maybe BC knows how to play football. Naww, can't be so. Quote Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Don't get me wrong, I'm not hailing BC for his gameplan against USC. I agree with the idea of ball control and clock management but he probably needed to shift his game plan a bit when it looked like it wasn't working. Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 No way did Callahan actually use that as a real game plan, he just didn't want to get killed. Quote Link to comment

I agree with the idea of ball control and clock management but he probably needed to shift his game plan a bit when it looked like it wasn't working. That's been my take all along...I agreed with the ball control, but would have liked to see one or two series where we just let fly and threw the ball. Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Like right before half and in the fourth quarter. Quote Link to comment
Washusker Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 If that's the blueprint, why is USC undefeated?? I watched good chunks of the WSU and UW games against SC, and each team was more aggressive offensively than we were. Lo and behold, they came a lot closer to beating SC than we did. Hmmmm.....

gamecocks Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Yeah but they didn't win either. If we would of thrown the ball more, there were no guarantees that we would have won. Why does everyone say that the play calling was why we lost the game. USC has won quite a few games the past three years and the only team that beat them was Texas and it wasn't Texas' play calling that won the game for them, it was Vince Young. There is no set game plan that will give you a victory against USC. We tried to control the ball and pound it down their throats and we lost. Fresno State tried to out score them and it didn't work.

indianahusker Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Back on topic... I believe this is the reason the Blackshirts don't have more sacks...that, and the first two games...defense didn't blitz much in the first game, Nickels and Dimes doesn't throw it at all.. Quote Link to comment
