Fair question - Over/Under on Cole's INTs in the bowl game?
Dec 9, 2014, 8:20 PM
|
|
This season, Cole has thrown 10 INTs (against 6 TDs). He has thrown half of the INTs on first down (which is almost inexplicable considering this is generally against the opponent's base defense(?)), 4 of them in the first quarter, 6 in the first half, and 6 in November. His tendency to throw interceptions got worse as the season progressed, and in general happened when he wasn't under pressure to try to make a play to win the game or convert an important third down. It's almost like he is color-blind, doesn't know how to read a defense, or only knows where his own players will be on a given play and not the defense.
In the bowl game, Dabo has GOT to address this tendency, because WE ALL KNOW IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN AT ANY TIME.
If you had to bet, how many INTs do you think Cole throws against Oklahoma?

TYou are probably right.

FSU is 51 in Total Defense and Oklahoma is 53.
We are first. We give up 260 yards per game and Oklahoma gives up 382 yards per game.

So, are you suggesting we actually throw the ball?

There's nothing I'd rather see, should Cole start, than for him to have one he1luva game and lead us to victory.
Sometimes, when the odds are stacked to the rooftops against someone, many are left in awe when that someone summons the resolve to overcome the odds.
This could be Cole's great chance to find his inner resolve.

Does anyone remember the strike he threw right in the numbers if Jeff Scott was wearing a jersey?

3 but total o/u 5 if Thomas plays for OU.

He has a 1:2 td:int ratio, cole has 3:5. But I have faith in cole not lose any interception competition. He can throw them as well as anyone out there. It seems zone gives him more trouble than man coverage? Is that what y'all see?

I don't think Cole has a preference...

He seems to throw INTs to the bad guys whether they are in man or zone with equal ease...
