Punt the ball moron

 

[989bjm989]

OMG. Why not under center. Didnt love that play call.

 

[989bjm989]

Punt the ball moron

Or that.

 

[JimStarr777]

I don’t think it matters what QB is put in. I think Stone is the ceiling level for all the guys.

 

[TheC]

I can't wait for this coaching staff to be gone. Just overmatched.

 

[Cool Cat]

We have to give Braun a chance to develop. We've had success with a young, developing coach.

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

I am at.ORD tomorrow and volunteer to take Lujan to be fired on the tarmac

No, we absolutely do not

This is true. But by year 3 they were making progress

I really want to see a Wildcat touchdown. All there is left to root for.

 

[989bjm989]

Silver lining? Run game?

 

[HawkCat]

Himon has been excellent today.

 

[989bjm989]

And I can’t fault our D, honestly. Didn’t really have any help from the other phases. They did some good things today.

 

[989bjm989]

I do miss innovative offensive schemes. We’ve had some good ones over the years.

 

[TheC]

No shutout

You mean all they way back to Randy Walker?

 

[Cool Cat]

Got to get Himon II 20+ touches a game.

Wish granted. That drive was kept alive by Drew Wagner. He’s our second best receiver.

 

[989bjm989]

Yes but I liked the Dan Persa years too.

 

[989bjm989]

Yes but I liked the Dan Persa years too.

Hated to see him get injured but we gassed the hell out of some defenses.

 

[Cool Cat]

Wish granted. That drive was kept alive by Drew Wagner. He’s our second best receiver.

Haha! Binns says he's third string.

 

[TheC]

Commercial after the kickoff even this late in the fourth quarter? Stupid Fox.

 

[HawkCat]

Wish granted. That drive was kept alive by Drew Wagner. He’s our second best receiver.

Wagner is small, but he seems to be a football player unlike most of our other WRs.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Yes but I liked the Dan Persa years too.

Gator Bowl season offense did some interesting things, too.

 

[TheC]

The good news is that neither line looked overmatched today. The bad news continues to be our lack of playmakers and poor coaching.

On Edit: OK, one playmaker!! Wow!!!!

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Most impressive performance?

Oddmakers. Damn

 

[989bjm989]

There you go Deshaun!

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Daaaaammmnnnn

 

[989bjm989]

Zero penalties for the Ducks today. Refs are so proud.

 

[Fanaticat98]

Really great run by Dashun. I know it's garbage time against probably their 2s and 3s but he showed good vision, hit the hole decisively and had the speed to finish. Even their backups are probably 4* burners and we've rarely had RBs who can outrun a B1G secondary over 70+ yards.

And Wagner showed good body control adjusting and high pointing that long ball.

These frosh will be good if they stick around and if we have a reliable QB.

 

[prez77]

Yes but I liked the Dan Persa years too.

Mark, Colter, Siemian could play a little too.

 

[cat inkansas]

Mark, Colter, Siemian could play a little too.

Question. Is this the best O-Line we have had in a while?

I guess we know who our third string RB is now. That was so unexpected, but the replay showed good patience and vision to see the hole, and then deceptively smooth speed to the end zone. Hope to see more!

Definitely protected the Brand… F em

 

[nickcat4]

Where was Saka. Second half did he play at all?
