Running screens when there is no blitzing seems kind of dumb. Even more so when they run two in a row.

Well that last playcall was.. interesting? Pulled Landon Young to the left, RB ran to the right with no blockers in front of him into about 3 defenders.

Jackson and Young with some more solid blocking on that drive. Young opened up a pretty big hole early in the drive (the play where the RB fumbled).

I thought it was weird too, but Jackson got beat on that play up the middle and that is why the running back headed to the right rather than going with the blocking.

Ah, I see. It looked a bit clogged but he still probably should have cut wide to the left, rather than running it right at the B gap area into 3 defenders.

Anyone have any thoughts on Kash? So far it is hard to tell considering that they haven't gone his way much.

I think Adidas had a bet going. How many different patterns can we pack into one uniform? It's like I'm staring at an abstract painting trying to figure out WTF I'm looking at.

They aren't allowed to blitz so it's hard to determine. He has had some moments where he's struggled to shed blocks. He's had a few moments of hesitation....."should I rush or sink back in coverage". Has had a few moments of incorrect angles. All of these things above are very minor concerns. Has done well for the most part.

I will say that between Patterson (Ole Miss) and Eason (UGA) that the SEC is getting some good QB prospects.

Patterson just threw the prettiest ball of the day so far.

Also, Young is owning the East Defensive Ends.

Young winning every battle on this drive so far. Jackson looking pretty solid as well. Knows how to use his size well.

His technique is much further along than I thought it would be. Most HS players just don't have it. He very well may be our RT next yr.

Sounds like that Franks kid needs to grow up a bit before he will really be ready for college quarterback.

I'm more interested in seeing what kind of athletic skills these guys have. These games are so skewed toward the O and away from the D that it isn't typical. Do they have strength, quickness and speed? The UK guys appears more than adequate in those areas.

After watching some of the JJ Watt commercials, I must say that everything about him is likeable. And that's coming from a Titan fan.

Jackson and Young both struggled on the first play of this drive. Won every battle the rest of the drive. TD and 2 PT conversion good. West up 27 - 9.
