again, where is mcknight?
he goes from being the leading receiver last year and the first few games this year to completely invisible. I don’t get this offense. It’s getting worse every game. I’m starting to think that hawkins was so succesful at boise because of pederson. Helfrich is a joke and it doesn’t look like hawk can win without an elite offensive coordinator

No tight ends either...it doesnt help when your
QB throws for less than 40%

Why would you doubt Texas?
They’ve done as good as OU in their games this year with arguably the same degree of difficulty. Sorry, but Washington, Cinci, and TCU are not teams that can beat top 15 teams.

by nebraskasux on Oct 11, 2008 12:54 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Don't get your second statement either
Muschamp might be the best D coordinator in the Big XII, and Texas is not lacking innovation on offense. Coaching is a wash, talent is a wash, these two teams were/are equals and this game is showing that.
by David OhNo on Oct 11, 2008 12:56 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Muschamp is a great adjuster.
I love watching how he sees what the offense does in the first half and turns around and clamps down on it in the second. Not to mention he’s about as fiery a guy as you’ll see.
by SlamDunkTheFunk on Oct 11, 2008 12:57 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
I wasn't bashing Texas
they are obviously a good team and I didn’t think OU would kill them, I thought they would win by about 10. I just think OU is better and that they have a better coaching staff. I stand by that.
by nebraskasux on Oct 11, 2008 1:00 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
No doubt.
But when you have the greatest in-state recruiting pipeline, Texas should be dominant every single season. 10 win seasons are nice, but they underachieve like no other.

In unrelated news
On the bottom line I notice that Tony Gonzalez has inquired about a trade. Strange that he says nothing until he gets the TE receiving record…and then decides it’s time to look into a trade. Anybody else think the timing is a little odd?

I am wondering why he didnt do it 5 years ago
it was funny i was just talking to people a couple weeks ago about him not getting out of that sh8t hole

Threw too high on the first

Nervous
Selvin Young being out probably means more Andre Hall, which means more of me banging my forehead on the desk. No Scheffler means more Graham, which means more dropped passes. Playing against Jacksonville is always nice because the games are usually good, but unless our run D plays out of it’s mind, we might get bowled over by that running game.

by nebraskasux on Oct 11, 2008 1:21 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
I was at the Jags game last year
where I traveled 1200 miles to see TD put in the Ring of Fame when Graham dropped a fourth down pass on a potential game-tying drive. I haven’t recovered.
by SlamDunkTheFunk on Oct 11, 2008 1:22 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Here's your solutions:
-Pittman likely gets young’s carries, and that’s a good thing because he should have had them in the first place.
-Jackson will get Scheffler’s passes. I don’t like Jackson too much but he’ll do.
-Real problem is Royal likely won’t be worth much in with his ankle. That means we will see much of Glenn Martinez. Real concern is how Denver’s personnel dep’t can find a better player than Martinez on the street…
by David OhNo on Oct 11, 2008 1:22 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Oh god.
That means Martinez will be returning punts, too. Which means if our defense forces four punts, we’re likely to see at least one fumble.

one carry? I think that was the only play he was even in the game. He has shown he is a good receiver coming out of the backfield, but him in now!

Why do we cover the stack set with
one tight corner and a safety ten yards off? All they’re doing is running quick screens and mauling our short corners…

There are plenty of mediocre kickers

MTM and Miller
are reasons we shouldn’t get too concerned about the future. When healthy, CU will have a great O-Line over the next few years, especially if Givens shifts inside (or flat beats out Solder, highly possible).
Add in the redshirted linebackers, and this team still has good talent, and it looks as if Hawkins is still making hay on the recruiting trail. Supposedly Burfict could be taking a visit.

OU's O-Line is once again exposed by speed.
I like Duke, but someone is going to spend a high pick on Loadholt and that same someone will be looking for their money back in two years. He’s the new Mike Williams, sooner style.

Let's hope KC
spends that money. Bradford looked a lot like Little Hawk on the past few series. Protection makes a huge, HUGE difference.

I can't get too down yet
because I’m still buying into our future here, and Dan is a winner in the homes of high schoolers. We are still fresh off a huge recruiting class and the honeymoon is still not over.
They may take a few steps back this year, but let them get healthy and get their talented redshirts on the field and we should be pleased with our Saturdays a year from now.
by David OhNo on Oct 11, 2008 1:39 PM MDT reply actions 0 recs
Exactly!
Last year was a surprise for them to make a bowl game, and their recruiting is bringing the program along in the right direction. I still think two years from now is the time for us to really raise the expectations. Next year some development and progress will be needed, but I am excited for the future. Hopefully, he wins over some strong defensive players and brings in another solid recruiting class.
