He took the high road. Don’t even know what that would be in that instance. He just called it like it was which was that Jake missed the throw.

I’d like one person to explain how it was a bad call. I saw that play multiple times today in the red zone.

Gonna take a long time for me to forgive that outrageous corner-fade call. Cost

Isn’t that part of why it was such a bad call? Jake never throws fades well.

It seemed like overhang from terrible clock management last week. Rather than practicing how to do it right

I could forgive it if we go on a 6 game win streak now. I'll eat a beefy 5 layer burrito with my face if we do it.

You mean 7 game? I doubt we get a bye now.

You think winning the BigXII CCG won’t get us the four seed? BSU would not get

Maybe if Boise is undefeated with only loss to #1 undefeated Oregon.

I still highly doubt the committee will look at BSU that way. PTSD CB does not

If we win out, we will highly likely be ahead of 2 of ACC, MWC and AAC champs

Has it been confirmed if Jake changed Aron’s call to the fade?

Confirmed he made the wrong read

I was yelling at the TV the moment I recognized a pass play developing. Just the

It’s been years since I yelled after a play. Surprised myself by doing it again.

W have too many good players to throw a high risk play to a lowly used player

Kalani talked about this early on in the year, after Jake had some interception

Yup, I have to agree. 1st and goal at the 5, and we've got 40 seconds and

Yeah, LJ was over 7 YPC in 1H and we don’t run from the 5, with 2 timeouts. dumb

Makes you wonder why we didn't try to milk clock that time, instead of at the

Chase Roberts said in post game that they love the play and had the matchup but Jake missed the pass. Jake said same.

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 2:33pm

Receivers will always love a pass play. We should have ran it three times

Like at the end of the game? I don’t mind the call Honestly, that SHOULD be a

Wouldn’t have needed 3 runs.

dtownCoug

Nov 17, 3:49pm

I agree.

Nov 17, 3:55pm

Fade is never a good play. Best-case scenario, it's a 50/50 jump ball.

fredgarvin

Nov 17, 3:40pm

Never ? That’s just silly.

Polecat

Nov 17, 5:17pm

Most teams disagree. Great play with right matchups and good throw.

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 6:47pm

Still a low-percentage play. You're hoping for a jump ball.

fredgarvin

Nov 17, 6:54pm

Higher percentage if you have the matchup. We did. I think it’s a low percentage play with Jake so should be shelved

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 7:04pm

Ta'ase is a blocking tight end. He never has the matchup.

fredgarvin

Nov 17, 7:05pm

3 tds out of 7 catches. He has good hands too.

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 7:17pm

None of his catches required anywhere near that level of skill as a receiver.

fredgarvin

Nov 17, 7:24pm

Thrown well to a 6’5 receiver over a 5’10 DB shouldn’t be hard or be an incompletion. He wasn’t the problem, Jake’s pass

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 7:27pm

Chase is acting the part of a great leader and not throwing people under bus

cajuncoug

Nov 17, 5:39pm

Well he pointed out that Jake missed it.

KYU

Nov 17, 8:45pm

Were there multiple Chase interviews?

cajuncoug

Nov 17, 8:56pm

Very common play call at all levels. Poor throw. Chase acknowledged that Jake missed the throw. I don’t think

KYU

Nov 17, 9:05pm

Here you go

cajuncoug

Nov 17, 9:15pm

Roberts also said it was the wrong read. There was a much better option.

Accipiter

Nov 17, 6:33pm

He said it was the right read and matchup just didn’t get there and was kind in saying, “DB made a great play”

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 6:48pm

Listen to the last part of his answer...

Accipiter

Nov 17, 10:09pm

It’s wasn’t the call. It was the throw that was the problem.

yapacoug

Nov 17, 3:22pm

Totally true. Might be a great play but not for Jake.

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 3:26pm

True. But when that throw looked exactly the same as it did on other fades that

Nov 17, 3:48pm

It is 1000% the play call. And also a terrible pass

cajuncoug

Nov 17, 5:45pm

And the read. Jake should have looked left and throw the fade to the right.

BYUHgrad

Nov 17, 6:55pm

Especially with Marion wide open in the middle of the field.

Nov 17, 3:50pm

I’m not in the QB room or on the headset, but could it be that the play had

Reasonable1

Nov 17, 3:51pm

Could be. If so, replace the fade with another route

Nov 17, 5:12pm

Most plays have multiple options. Chase said they liked the matchup. Bad throw. It happens.

Nov 17, 6:50pm

RE: Most plays have multiple options. Chase said they liked the matchup. Bad

Reasonable1

Nov 17, 6:54pm

If Jake throws it like he is supposed to, you wouldn’t be thinking about ARod at all. Ball needs to be thrown to a spot

Nov 17, 4:12pm

Correct

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 6:50pm

From what understand is there were 4 options on that play. Jake chose the fade

Nov 17, 4:15pm

Fade is suppose to be outside and high. Low risk

Bobmarleyjr

Nov 17, 5:09pm

Coaching malpractice. But no accountability. Was a fireable bad call by ARod

fan32

Nov 17, 5:29pm

TIC right? This call with this matchup is made all the time. Bad execution is all. Sheesh.

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 6:51pm

Teams throw fades to their blocking tight ends in that situation "all the time"?

fredgarvin

Nov 17, 6:59pm

He’s had 7 catches this year 3 of which are TDs and is a huge body. Not a bad bet if QB can make the pass.

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 7:06pm

Spoiler alert: he can't.

fredgarvin

Nov 17, 7:07pm

Agreed, take it out of his repertoire.

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 7:18pm

Then every OC in college and the pros should be fired. Is it a bad call because Jake can’t make the throw????

KYU

Nov 17, 8:47pm

Some people believe things are bad calls because of bad outcomes. Coaches look at practice, data, matchups, timing…

GoodBetterBestBYU

Nov 17, 9:23pm

Forgive? This one blows right past 70 x 7

cajuncoug

Nov 17, 6:33pm

Yup! Given the implications and BYU's opportunity to have a once in 40 year kind

jaba166

Nov 17, 6:48pm

You've never made a mistake?

rockyrd

Nov 17, 7:13pm

That is a play used by team at all levels in that exact situation. Why are you so upset at the call & not the execution
