Here for the Wins

Coleman 30 targets. 57% completion percentage. 4 interceptions. Wingo 28 targets. 75% completion percentage. 0 interceptions. Mosley 26 targets. 65% completion percentage. 1 interception.

I’d be in favor of changing the rule to state QB rather than passer.

A passer passes the ball. No one was calling him a QB.

I used to watch college basketball all the time. Now almost never. My interest didn’t really start until football ended. The frequent roster turnover is one element to lose interest. As for March Madness, opening weekend was the best. In part because it was somewhat easy for small school 5 beat or at least compete. Much more difficult to get 22. it basically took 1 year for people to say strength of schedule should matter so if it doesn’t, drop the marquee non-conference games and say no to G5 participants in the playoff.

Cooper needs to get upfield on the toss. Sometimes those 3 yards matter. Had a chance for a few more.

Where would Kobe recommend?

The Billy Pittman TD before half was the nail in the 2005 coffin. 2008 was awesome. The Cosby decleator as mentioned previously.

It’ll be a combination of all things. Versus UTSA, he a go route down the sideline. The ball is on him, no catch. On the goalline, he has a slant for a TD, but the Cb whips him. His path to the ball versus Ohio State, versus Tennessee weren’t the smoothest. I really have no idea how fast he is. And retrospectively many of highlights were with him making great catches against decent coverage. So not real sure he’s a great separator. If anything Cam should be upset? Not really. Wingo 25 targets, 19 catches, Mosley 12-21, Coleman 12-20. He’s been here the shortest time so it wouldn’t be surprising his rapport with the QB is less than the other two. He was brought here to help win it all. That’s still on the table.

Certainly could be. The Tenn one was tough. The UTSA ones stand out most in my mind. I’d just not force it to him. As a QB I can see the thought that he’s not getting enough looks so I need to look his way more often. Or that knowing he can go get it that you force it. This team shouldn’t be chasing numbers because there are multiple viable options.

I think he’s 4 of 8 on contested catches. UTSA whipped him once on a catchable ball and bodied him a bit on another. He can clearly make some spectacular catches. But……do we want to rely on 50/50 balls? You are effectively saying they’re a break even proposition. There’s an element of encouraging your QB to throw to a covered WR. There are several inherent issues in that.

Is Wingo faster and quicker? I think he’s better with the ball in his hands. If he checks those boxes, then he’s the guy to move around.

I’ve recorded and rewatched many of the games over the past 30-ish years. Many of those in person initially. Generally speaking I feel better after having rewatched the games. There has been an evolution of how I view things over that time. Live, I watch the ball. With rewatch you can see a lot more. Video has improved a great deal, rewind is better so the opportunities for clear viewing are better. I’d like to think my perspective is more rational as sometimes it takes multiple views of a play whereas players get one chance in real time.

I’m with you here. There are more of those 8-5 types that will be looking for an advantage. An extra non-conference loss would be detrimental. Nevermind that the extra mental and physical juice may result in less focus for some of the conference slate. Also, the number of home site games increases. Seedings matter and the most significant risk to that is an extra loss. For any team, they have to find a willing non-conference participant. So those that typically fall in that 16-32 range will have to think long and hard about whether they want to risk it.

How many of these videos have you watched? I am not talking Texas but for other teams.

I’m not sure what one would consider a meaningful snap of football. If you like share a little more insight into the meaningful snaps you’ve played. Does that start at the college level?
