TU - MU game thread

[TU 1978]

Nice uniforms tonight.

Let's go, TU!

 

[TU 1978]

Glad to see Warren in the backfield. Perhaps President will be in next series.

 

[TUGrad06]

Agreed. Also...decent first drive by Dane. Crisp passes for the most part. RB missed a huge blitz pickup from the left side on the sack of Dane. Good punt. Defense is jacked up. Hopefully they keep that energy.

Except he completely whiffed on blitz pickup on the sack. But he did have a nice run on the drive. Good vision and juking.

 

[TU 1978]

That was a missed assignment.

 

[TUGrad06]

CB #6, whoever that is, is not a D3 let alone D1 corner. Put him on the bench. He's terrible. Also, our CBs never cross over the center. They only play sides...which leads to HUGE mismatches on the outside on LBers/safeties on WRs. Kerwynn thomas should've crossed over to the right side of the field and covered that slot WR. Bad bad bad.

Anyone else kind of want to see Jones get 20 catches, 300+ yards, all by himself?

Could happen....

Agree. Especially when our DC puts LBers on WRs. Strong strategy.

 

[TU 1978]

Flanders now in.

Floyd drops a pass.

3rd down.

 

[TU 1978]

Hobbs keeps making good receptions.

 

[t-townpod]

Flanders now in.

Floyd drops a pass.

3rd down.

Tough to catch when thrown behind him

 

[TUGrad06]

Defense strong 2/3 drives so far. Offense needs to do something.

 

[TUGrad06]

And they did! At least they decided not to cover our best WR. Good touch and catch.

 

[TU 1978]

Defense is really fired up!

 

[TUGrad06]

And there's our lack of talent showing at the DB position.

 

[TU 1978]

No Langer yet.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Memphis offense is really really good.

 

[TU_BLA]

Memphis offense is really really good.

Our D is pretty bad. Tackling was terrible on the last scoring drive

 

[ctt8410]

Punt to win...

 

[TU 1978]

We should at least make those tackles, or at least strip the ball from their running back. He's pickable.

 

[TU_BLA]

DBs giving a 15 yd cushion on every play. Memphis can chew 7-10 yds on the little outs every play

 

[TU_BLA]

Blue shirt cover a white shirt. It's not that hard of a concept. Memphis doesn't really need the refs help tonight yet the stripes continue to give them calls, like extra yards on spots, etc.

 

[TU 1978]

Do we ever throw downfield? Always to the sideline.

 

[TUGrad06]

Defense's main problem is the secondary. Then tackling.

Once again #6 CB Williams losses a drive for us because he can't cover and then holds on a huge sack by the Dline. He needs to sit down.

 

[TU 1978]

These phantom calls on our defense need to stop.

 

[TUGrad06]

Sit Williams down now. Like now. Like before the next play.

 

[TUGrad06]

Oh look williams again giving a 10 yard cushing on an 8 yard route for an easy completion. Sit him down.

 

[TU 1978]

He's giving a cushion because of the bull calls against him.

 

[TUGrad06]

Easy INT drop...wow.. Lynch threw it right to him.

 

[TUGrad06]

He's giving a cushion because of the bull calls against him.

If that's what you want to believe, that's fine. But that's not the reason. It's because he's bad. The facemask was phantom. The holding that got rid of the sack was not.

 

[TUGrad06]

LOL. Leutjen. so undisciplined. One of our best players...ugh. 2 in a row...wow.

 

[bigzit]

The execution and talent of Memphis is noticeable. Temple, Navy, Memphis and Houston are good! We need to beat the bottom half to salvage 1-2 more wins.

 

[TU 1978]

For second half, sit some of the defensive players. Also Evans.

 

[TU_BLA]

How does a half the distance penalty from the 6 end up on the 1 yd line? It's not a tack on enforcement.

 

[TUGrad06]

Well. Dane has looked a little better tonight. Defense, mainly Williams has given up big play after big play. Leutjen with 2 killer penalties...Mitchell with an easy INT drop. Just no talent on defense.

 

[TUGrad06]

Lynch is 20/28 for 289 yards and 3 TDs. Glad to see were giving our fellow conference mate a push for the Heisman. 387 yards given up in 1 half...If Baylor had our defense it might be hard for them to win games.

 

[bigzit]

This game is proof positive when you wake up and know your HC sucks, you have to cut bait - BB put Tulsa back 4-6 years. A horrible college HC.

 

[TUGrad06]

Wow. Keyarris grabs the Dane underthrow hail mary. Nice scrambling by Dane to keep it alive at least.

 

[CougarKing]

But you guys kept saying that Herman was TU's backup choice.

The penalty was declined. The refs just didn't say so.
