Second Half Open Thread
Ladies and gentlemen, Offensive Coordinator Greg Davis!
Seriously, my support for this program is undying, but I'm pretty well disgusted by that half of offensive football.
Let's hope for a big turnaround; just like the Kansas State embarrassment, we're going to lose without a 180 degree turnaround.

Finley
finally did catch a pass at the end of the half.
Hopefully we see more of him in the 2nd half.

there were actually more called passes
the McCoy sacks and scrambles look like rushing attempts, but they were called passing plays.

It seems to me
That we cannot make up our mind on what we are. Last year, we said this is our offense, we're going 3 wides and passing all over the field - try and stop it. Now, we have no identity and especially NO rhythm. The Texas and Saints offense have morphed into the same unit: underacheiving O-line, talented RB that likes to dance when nothing's there, WR's who can't get seperation against man-to-man, QB making uncharacteristic bad reads and bad decisions. Nightmare...

Go back and read your own post
If "Texas has quit playing" as you say, I don't think you can totally lay that at GD's feet. Davis is just a convenient scapegoat. The problems in this program go a little further than just the offensive playcalling/gameplaning.

I thought this whole "GD will make it simpler for McCoy" strategy was actually working. Should've known it was only because we were playing Iowa St and Baylor.

Special teams
When was the last time Cosby broke one or even got to midfield on a kickoff return?
by goingforthecorner on Oct 27, 2007 4:50 PM CDT 0 recs
Nope
Never got to midfield. Did get to the 40 a couple of times. I'd take that.

We're Texas
It's the nature of being Texas.
Even the worst teams will play their hearts out against us. It's a matter of high levels of motivation for opposing teams that we can't seem to counter. Exhibit A: Kansas State.

I thought it was a good move to put him in the O-line. At least we're trying something.

Colt is the problem with the deep ball
He won't stay in a perfectly good pocket long enough to get a guy open downfield. He takes off 2 seconds after the ball is snapped regardless of pressure.

Bowden's comment
On the radio, Terry Bowden noted that Texas is lining up in obvious rush formations. When Nebraska gives up big running plays, opponents are in the spread formation. Calling John Chiles. You are needed to save Mack Brown's behind.
by milevin on Oct 27, 2007 5:06 PM CDT 0 recs
Sir...
Your logic and reason have no place in play calling. I suggest we line up in a power-I as often as possible.
