Week 7 games….

[mattropolis]

Just getting back from sand volleyball and getting into today’s action. I see sock-boy is having a great game today. Road conference games are tough (for most teams). Kansas lost their starting QB during their game last week. This isn’t shocking.

DJ Mack having a good day at ODU! Hope they can close out and eliminate Coastal from the NY6 race

Mack wants us in a NY6 bowl 😂

Iowa State WR just dropped a wide open catch…probably costing them at least a tie. Wow. Choke-job. That was horrible. Nobody within 5 yds of the kid and it was a floater as well.

 

[mattropolis]

Yep. Iowa State just fumbled and gave the game away.

 

[OtterKnight]

Targeting?

Wasn't clear on the replay.

 

[KnightNite]

🦛 up 21-7 on Bama

 

[Central Floridave]

7-3 duh bulls. end of 1st quarter

 

[SimpleJack53]

Targeting?

Wasn't clear on the replay.

No targeting was called. Looked like initial contact was at shoulder level.

Let’s see Saban’s in game adjustments

Bama OLine is struggling

 

[The Knightman Cometh]

Geeez Tennessee is smacking Bama. So much for Bama getting revenge for me.

28-10.

 

[Poolside Knight]

Bama finally forced a 3 and out then they muffed a punt .
28-10 Tennessee

 

[beelit47]

It looks like theyre rolling but remember this is the josh heupel who blew 4 td leads against memphis

 

[Central Floridave]

14-10 duh*bulls. Bohanan just ripped a great TD run.

 

[Poolside Knight]

28-17 Tenn-Bama

 

[mattropolis]

Halftime:
Tulane = 113 yds
USF = 104 yds

Correction….They both had like 200 yds. My ESPN app seems to be struggling to keep up with things.

 

[Poolside Knight]

28-20 Tennessee

Bama responding

 

[mattropolis]

Fatty with idiotic call to go for it on 4th and 6 from like the 35 with a 28-17 lead and a little over 2:44 left. They overthrow the WR in the endzone…you needed 6 yards. Bama gets the ball and kicks a 43 yard FG with 32 seconds left.

….You pooch-punt and put them inside the 20. They probably don’t get those 3 points.

If the pass is on target for TD there is a massive upswing in win probability. Far outweighing the minimal downside of missing it vs punting.

 

[KnightNite]

Heifers give up a TD with 10 seconds left in the half, LOL

You could say that on every play:
1) if it was only an accurate throw
2) if only the WR caught it
3) if only the O-line had blocked
4) if only the RB had followed his lead blocker
5) if only the QB had gone to his 3rd read
6) etc…

What did the tool say about Bama starting it’s drive from inside the 10 versus the 35 and 2:44 on the clock?

I guess we should just get rid of the coaches. We have a prediction tool to replace them now.

I mean your analysis is kind of dumb and makes sense only in hindsight. If the Heisman candidate QB hits the open receiver for a TD, the odds of them winning the game increase far more than they decrease by not converting vs punting (assuming you get the punt off). In a vacuum, an average offensive team should go for it there based on analytics. A top 5 offense in the country should certainly go for it there.

28-28

 

[KnightNite]

🦛 choke job

 

[hemightbejeremy]

UT has receivers running open every drive. Hooker missed the previous 2 drives, but not the last one.

 

[Poolside Knight]

that xp may be costly

 

[PositYourself]

31-17 Tulane over the losers. USF fumbles, Tulane scores on the next play.

 

[Poolside Knight]

Bama Pressure making Hooker overthrow

Interception

He’s missed on some throws that you have to hit to beat Bama.

[KnightNite]

Wow, UT beating themselves with terrible mistakes.

Dumb…is the play we saw.

The one where the receiver was open but slightly overthrown? Nah.

 

[mattropolis]

BYU taken to the woodshed by Arkansas at home. The rest of their games are much easier. They should end the regular season at 9-3.

 

[KnightNite]

🦛 tied with Bama 49-49 with 3:26 to go

 

[Heupelupthemiddle]

Too funny. Tennessee just throws basically a game ending interception which was really a pass interference penalty in their favor and when the referees are huddling to discuss it, the fans are booing. Give them a chance to call it

Offenses get rewarded for under throws

Game of the Year so far

I was going to bet the house on this one. Not sure what the line ended up being, but I thought Tennessee could win straight up

If Milroe played UT would have won comfortably.
