up 17-7 offense clicking..we break out a gadget play..


Sep 29, 2012, 4:36 PM

morris is a great OC..but this constant gadget plays when our offense is clicking annoys me

And, is leading to a BC touchdown.


Sep 29, 2012, 4:36 PM

UGH!!

I agree stupid ####### play call... All momentum gone in that one dumb decision.

I don't understand that call at all.


Sep 29, 2012, 4:37 PM

Very bad decision.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It goes back to my complaint last week about the halfback


Sep 29, 2012, 4:37 PM

pass on 3rd and 2 against FSU last week I think late in the 2nd quarter. We were running the ball well at the time and pulled that play, which fell incomplete. I don't understand the timing sometimes of our trick plays.

Totally agree...

Stupid a@@ play call!!!

No need for tricks, just beat them like you have been!

Then you call a play action pass with other options. You can go for the throat without a pathetic trick play.

Well you dont need to pull that kind of junk to kick their heads off.

It is more impressive if you line up and run it down their throats and demoralize them. Now that would kick their heads off, their rears off and everything else.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

With this defense


Sep 29, 2012, 4:41 PM

Why in the world would we risk putting hem back on the field at hat point? Coaching?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

If it had worked Morris would be called a genius


Sep 29, 2012, 4:42 PM

just a bad call on Boyd to throw it deep w double coverage like that

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

i would have been happy it worked no doubt..


Sep 29, 2012, 4:42 PM

but i would have still thought it was a dumb call.just run the freaking offense if it is working.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Finally someone with common sense.


Sep 29, 2012, 4:44 PM [ in reply to If it had worked Morris would be called a genius ]

Thank you for that. Everyone else is getting their panties in a wad.

We're 20 times better than this team and Morris is just trying out some new stuff in a game environment (instead of practice). I don't mind it. That was on Boyd, not Morris. We will be fine.

meanwhile bc has the momentum***

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Well call me stupid I guess. When you are up 10 points on


Sep 29, 2012, 4:50 PM [ in reply to Finally someone with common sense. ]

road and have the ball at midfield, my common sense say you don't call that play on 1st down. It completely changed the momentum of the game.

Sep 29, 2012, 4:49 PM [ in reply to If it had worked Morris would be called a genius ]

I didn't call Morris a genius when he pulled it off on one play against FSU. But I understand what you are saying. Kinda angered me actually that we couldn't man up and impose our will on them and had to resort to tricks to move the ball when we were doing just fine running Ellington, etc.

We dont need these type of plays. Just keep doing what we do without the gimmicks.

I think they're all ready to fire Morris...
don't think this is coaching by committee.
It's never going to please everyone...
Somebody will always complain. Why did he score
that touchdown that way? He should have run it
instead of passing. He should have run an option.
He should have shot his Pistol.. :)

I like Chad.

But I was fussing about these gimmick razzle plays even when we scored against FSU.

Why not just run over people. We score one more time and the game is over against BC.

No need for these types of tricks.

Whats wrong with a power running game a little play action and a great D.

Valid point ... however Tajh made wrong read***


Sep 29, 2012, 4:54 PM



2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


That should be a safe play call


Sep 30, 2012, 6:12 AM

Tajh should know not to throw it if it isn't there. He forced the ball out there and got picked. That would have obviously been a huge play if it had worked, but the turnover is on Tajh.

Re: up 17-7 offense clicking..we break out a gadget play..


Sep 30, 2012, 11:25 PM

Agree it was a dumb call, but even worse Boyd should not have thrown short into double coverage. The interception gave BC a lot of momentum. Fortunately, the players were able to recover.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

OP is right... no business callin that play


Oct 1, 2012, 5:20 AM

cant trust tajh or any college kid in that situation... we run some clock, tire out the D with AE, rip their hearts out. we aren't goin to end the game in the middle of the 1st half with a random long bomb.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Seems like alot are scripted.... Take the opening drive


Oct 1, 2012, 8:16 AM

Ellington in the wildcat. (Not really a fan of it, but...)

Would have been fine I guess on a normal touchback kickoff.... But Ellington just had a 45-50 yard run back and actually looked a little winded...

How about a play action, soften up the db's , give him a play to catch his breath , then go to it - if they wanted to run it so badly.

Situational play calling is the deal.

We ran 80 something plays and y'all b1tch about one play? You act like it cost us the game. BC got the ball on the freakin 8 yd line. If the freakin D could stop me we should have got the ball back in great shape.
Some of you would ##### if you won a million dollars
