couple observations from game


Oct 21, 2018, 11:23 AM

We seem to always be on the edge of lining up offsides on defense. They call it every now and then. Should be easy to clean up. Would be a mess to habe that called at a crirical time in a big game ! Also - the fake fg...Would seem that, given the yardage involved, letting the offense take care of it might have been a better option. Or take the 3. Thought the call was strange based on down/distance scenario

With all the positives coming out of this game, you want to talk about these things? Ross, Higgins, Thompson and Renfrow all came up huge. TL looked great, and the defense played maybe it's 2nd best game of the year, although WF wasn't even a contest after the first quarter. Well, this one was over at half, but solid game in all phases.

Some of you just have to find something to whine about


The staff,in game that they controlled from the opening kick,wanted to try a few little things in live action,just in case they need it later on.

The D Line has been lining up as close as they can since Lawson was here. watched him line up offside 3 times in 2016 Playoff game.Do wish they'd watch it closer.

So you agree with his observation? Why the snarky opener?***

I believe they were so comfortable at the time they wanted to try things they work on in practice in real game situations. Even though you do not believe they read tnet, I think Wilkins was going to throw the pass on the jumbo package. And the fake field goal is the same play Purdue ran to get a first down that turned into a TD. There are very few times when the stars align allowing you an opportunity to get real world experience. Next time it can succeed because now we have film of what to work on.
The offsides is unfortunate but you always try to get an edge. Hopefully no more penalties for that the rest of the year.

Not sure why they did the fake field goal, but it was there if Swinney had not fumbled the snap.

He almost got it after the fumbled snap.
