Game Thread - Arky

[TheRoo]

They need to stick with those quicker passes with Woods. His downfield stuff is a little sketchy.

 

[TheRoo]

Wanna see more of that truck --- #44. That was a heck of a run.

 

[Henry322]

Only way I could get rid of Spanky was post him. Someone asked earlier in the the week where Cyrus was. Well, there he was.

 

[Deathstar]

Agree. Looking more confident as a passer.

Woods is a much better passer than LS, so why don’t we exploit this strength?

 

[sclawman77]

Don't need to give up a long drive here. Come on

 

[sclawman77]

Woods is a much better passer than LS, so why don’t we exploit this strength?

The trickery was unnecessary that's for sure

 

[Jonesz2]

No sellers = no offense

No heart. The team that wants it most will win tonight

 

[Cockofdawn]

Damned. Might turn to Seinfeld reruns!!

 

[Bubba Fett]

Not enough pressure.

Jackson will slaughter us if we can't get him unsettled.

 

[Deathstar]

ARK game plan is smart, grinding our D down. They already look tired. Our offense has hardly any possession time.

 

[Cockofdawn]

I will take solice in knowing this team can’t beat GA.

 

[I4CtheFuture]

I'm glad we didn't call a timeout there.

DUMBEST. COACHES. IN. AMERICA!!!!!

 

[Cockofdawn]

This game is a loss!! Arky will drive this fumble down for A TD, 10-0 at half.

Saw that coming a mile away!!

 

[Cocktomusprime]

ballgame! sorry I try and stay positive

 

[Deathstar]

ARK scores on an easy pass, we are complete garbage. Woods is not the problem, our coach is the problem. Such a crap game plan and preparation

 

[Bubba Fett]

Embarrassing. Even if we come back. Absolutely embarrassing.

 

[TheRoo]

Man -- Their confidence is sky high now. This is no good.

 

[Jonesz2]

Effort beats talent every time

 

[DeBoer31]

Offense was gained fine. Missed fg, terrible fumble.
My bigger question is how in the blue hell does the starting Te play in front of 44?
44 can play in the pros. Greatly underutilized in the pass game IMO

 

[Gamecockman]

Without Sellers it looks to be over.

 

[Gr8spur]

Back to reality. We still have a shot at 7-5. Maybe.

 

[Cockofdawn]

Maybe they can beat the taters and get to 7 wins.

 

[I4CtheFuture]

Woods is a much better passer than LS, so why don’t we exploit this strength?

Bro, we're not smart enough to use time outs correctly...... and you're talking about exploiting strengths?????

We have THE. DUMBEST. COACHES. IN. AMERICA!!! And even scarier? 1/2 of our fan base doesn't know any better and supports them anyway.

 

[Cockofdawn]

ballgame! sorry I try and stay positive

I have to agree!!

 

[TheRoo]

That trick play came at a terrible time.

 

[Cockofdawn]

Well we do have women’s basketball!!

 

[TheRoo]

OK. It's up to Woods. We need a good drive. A turnover would be a disaster. Pressure situation.

 

[cocean]

6-6 incoming

 

[DannyTree1]

I turned it off.


It's clear the coaching staff doesn't have confidence in Woods with the plays being called. That tells me he doesn't make all the throws in practice to the level that is required.

That's the mistake that has hurt coaching staffs for years-trying to protect a player. It almost never works- didn't 40 years ago- doesnt' now.


Making Arkansas look like a top 5 SEC team.

 

[Deathstar]

Woods really ain’t bad, play calling is garbage.

 

[DannyTree1]

That trick play came at a terrible time.

That tells the viewer the staff doesn't have confidence in Woods to make the throws- they aren't even looking at the middle of the field. I guess he just can't make those reads.

 

[IH8TerryCousin]

If this is the 2-deep behind Sellers, we’re in danger.

 

[Deathstar]

It’s so bad clapper ain’t clapping…

 

[Bubba Fett]

We really do have stupid coaching.

 

[Deathstar]

That tells the viewer the staff doesn't have confidence in Woods to make the throws- they aren't even looking at the middle of the field. I guess he just can't make those reads.

But look at the throw he just made, he can make the throws!

 

[DannyTree1]

Woods really ain’t bad, play calling is garbage.

He clearly hasn't earned the confidence of the staff to let him throw the ball down the field- except for short passes to the side.

That tells me he can't make those plays in practice to any degree.

 

[I4CtheFuture]

We really do have stupid coaching.

The Roo will be along shortly to argue with you.

 

[DannyTree1]

But look at the throw he just made, he can make the throws!

But he hasn't proved to the staff he can make them.

That's why Briles is calling a game like I walked out there to play and just met him 10 mins before the game.

 

[DannyTree1]

But look at the throw he just made, he can make the throws!

The color commentator has already said it about 2-3 times that the OC should be opening it up and letting him throw.

For him not to be doing that is a result of him not making those plays in practice.

 

[DeBoer31]

I wish Briles would stop getting cute with his calls. Just call a solid game without the antics.

WTH are you talking about? Gotta be a bot.
