Zone doesn't mean mesh (handoff or pull the ba) play. The "read" part of "zone read" is what makes it a mesh play


Reality is, you played tight man on 4th and 2 and had a LB covering a RB and had a log jam against trips. You played man against bunch trips. That's the problem of the game.


Here for the PAC12 going out in style with a national title.


weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


Boom


Michigan DL might eat this Wash OL from first look.

Also want to reiterate. FSU puts up a dogfight against that Michigan team.


why in the world did he cut back to the right at the end on that reception?


That's why Michigan wants no part of Washington in my opinion. Other than elite DL play I don't know what Michigan does against any of this spread offense.

If that Guard gets under that slanting player, Milroe walks in untouched. 1 player blew that up.

Right. Success or failure of a play is a lot less based on "knowing" than executing

If it helps, pretend like the DL vaporized the Bama guard at the moment of the snap. Is it the wrong call if you were betting the other team wouldn't force your guard to vanish into another dimension?

Excuse me. You’re still wrong tho

Ah yes two wins against the 15th and 16th best teams in cfb. Like I said doesn't hit the same as legit elite wins. Good thing they let the committee make the decisions.


Texas clearly frauds

I understand what he means though. It's an inside QB run. It's ugly. It's not pretty. There is no 2nd chance on a play like that(a bounce or cut). So I understand disliking the play.

If someone wants a 2nd option off the play, outside zone, counter, wham, ect, I'm all for it. I just wanted to see if pass is what we were thinking. I don't think passing was the right play. I think Milroe outside power is 100% the right call or at least counter. But counter there takes a while to develop.

I don't have a problem with disliking the call and hope I didn't come off that way. I was just curious as to what the other option people are thinking it should be. I'm just spitballin here is all.


This game is fun


Milroe was like a heat seeking missile right into the arms of the tackler


Defense clearly optional.

Glad you still post here, even if lately it's like CFP playoffs only every year


Offense is way more fun

I watched it a few times. Maybe some kind of jet motion may have widened the edge played but nothing there stops that 4i/3 technique. Maybe an off tackle run? You could have pulled up through. None of that really is what we saw all night though.

I know is going to sound weird but it wasn't the "best" call but it was the "right" call. You needed your OL to get off the ball there and just control inside gap. Instead that Michigan DL stepped up at the very moment it needed to. If

Great play by the edge or **** play by the guard? I assume you can guess my answer.


That's because my schedule dies down incredibly this time of year. Though I expect to be busy a little longer this year as I also am contracted out as a consultant for another program. Depends what their plan for me the next few weeks is will depend how busy I am.

Heh. I'm grading it ++ for the DL there. Maybe 0 or - for the OL.


Goal line stand discussion gives flashbacks to Seahawks Patriots, when it's hard to say Seachickens made a stupid call, if what they were betting on was that that DB from West Alabama wouldn't pull out a gun and murder the receiver at the snap

Also funny because the popular sentiment was "run even though everyone knows it's coming" instead of "don't run, because everyone knows it's coming"

SRM/Needle, I can see saying it was a bad call because Bama guards and center have had trouble all year with anything like a reach block or anything with athletic slanting linemen. Basically, mobility issues. So maybe try to make a call where it's less likely you'll be asking your IOL to do that
