I put him on ignore a long long time agoYou might want to do some research, your "eye" isn't worth much.
I'll help go look up Kent St, Oklahoma St, Tulsa, Texas Tech, Purdue, Wake Forest, USF...
We are currently ranked 78th, not sure how that's one of the WORST in the country...
FYI this is not 1982 when there was only 78 teams in D1.
as does every defensive coordinator who has ever lived
Yep, that’s why D linemen cost a ton in the portal
true. but not every DC has a scheme that requires DE pressure so much. When you get that pressure every DC looks better.
Yeah I mean it’s pretty clear to see when you have a good coordinator or a bad one. He’s 14 games in and his defense has been horrible. He lost a bunch of good players and we expect it to be better this year? he’s not doing a very good job and I see zero evidence of why it would get better. Time to cut bait or hire someone that can help EROB learn on the job like Coach P. He’s a train wreck right now though and Fran is allowing it to happen or even worse coaching it himself
You think it’s a kitchen sink game for the UCONN d?
which is why he should get fired
I watched a decent amount of football saturday and sunday. I don't think we looked terrible. I think UT was 19 points better because they're just better. They're coming off a playoff, they've been building that program up for 6 years and they're ahead of, and they seem underrated. Definitely more of a top 15 than fringe 25.
I don’t love the way the line is trending…
I think so too. However, there will be teams that get to Aguilar. He misfired on at least 5 passes that were not difficult. If a team can get pressure on him, he will turn the ball over. I think Tennessee is a 10-2 team. They have Georgia at home in a few weeks. They play at Florida and Alabama...if they can win one of those and beat Oklahoma home...not seeing any other losses. No South Carolina, Ole Miss, LSU, Texas, Missouri on the schedule. That is VERY favorable. If they beat Georgia, we might be seeing a Tee Martin scenario where they run the table...
Which is exactly why i don't understand the conservative bend and don't break play calling in this game. If we would have actually ran some aggressive pressure schemes, Aguilar would have overthrown some receivers for some INT's. Aguilar is known for throwing pics. Why let them methodically move the ball down the field. Sure we will get beat here and there when they don't get home, but we were eventually giving up points moist of the time anyway. Make some big plays on D and get some turnovers and stops for a shorter field. EROB's 4 and 3 man front defense seems to require the front four or three to get pressure. When you know you aren't going to against an SEC line, you have to have to throw in more pressure packages.
It is very hard to get pressure on him because they are a great running team and we are not good against the run. They use the run to set up the pass. And then the passes were rarely long-developing passes. They really came out using play action to get his confidence going (even with incomplete passes). They called a great game, especially in the 1st quarter. Well coached team. Unfortunately, UConn is too.
