Skeptical Optimist Intervention Needed

arms to celebrate when Retzlaff makes the throw to Lassiter.

Pretty clearly he was the bait and everybody on our team knew what was coming.

I wanna talk about Lassiter's route on the TD

Big12Yfan

It's unfortunate that so many fans are bitter about not giving ball to Moa there

Belboz

He did a great job. He, Epps, and Retzlaff faked like they were running the same play that we ran last week on Epps' TD.

I know that CB lives to crap on ARod, but ARod does a masterful job of creating variations of plays they've run before

Indy Coug

1:58pm

I don't think ARod's scheme is what people have issues with, it is his

That and his subpar recruiting

arizonacougarfan

I was telling my sons what a perfect play call this was. Lassiter set it up

SoBlueitHurts

3:00pm

I like how he set up the flea-flicker with two good runs.

Mark

The whole play design was very good

Rhubarb

1:58pm

Good route and good sell of the block but the design of that play is really the thing of beauty. That concept of

Watch Epps anticipating the TD in this video:

Abe Froman

2:01pm

That play was designed to go to Epps... Retz looked right at Epps the second he got the ball...

Coug

2:03pm

BTW... that play shows the growth from Retzlaff since that OU INT

Coug

2:04pm

I disagree. That looked like a setup for Lassiter the whole way

jigidajrit

2:06pm

No the play was to Lassiter the whole way. Great design. Epps and Retzlaff sold it hard.

Haysom Till

2:08pm

Disagree. Exact same design as last week. Epps putting his hands up as the decoy all the way

22jrob22

2:09pm

Exactly. You could tell the KSU safety had watched the film from last week

Submariner

2:16pm

It's not the same design as the Epps TD against Wyoming... nobody was in motion in the Wyoming play

Coug

2:17pm

The motion is just to make sure they are in man coverage

SoBlueitHurts

3:02pm

That’s fair, I was wrong. I remember them running that play with Epps in motion at some point but it was not the TD pass

22jrob22

4:21pm

That play went to Epps last week. This week, Epps was the decoy. It worked perfectly.

dilbert

2:09pm

I think there are 2 options on that play... the 2nd Epps comes out of his break and motions back...

Coug

2:11pm

Lassiter didn’t even attempt to block. It was a play setup by prior plays

Littlerich

2:13pm

Against Wyoming Epps didn't go in motion... it's not the same play from the Wyoming game

Coug

2:16pm

Same base play, just whether you want Epps to initially line up in position

Submariner

2:20pm

I still think that play has 2 options... Epps went in motion... his motion clearly showed that KState was in man...

Coug

2:22pm

You are probably right that both Epps and Lassiter were options on that play. I really think the intent was to get

dilbert

We have run a variation of this play for three years. This was a set up play and a pass to Lassiter.

Littlerich

3:37pm

Of course there were various options on the play

Belboz

2:33pm

First option looked like giving ball to Moa. It was an RPO.

Belboz

3:12pm

Watch Epps look at Lassiter, he knows where it is going

SoBlueitHurts

3:02pm

No, it was set up to look like a pass to Epps as we have run it multiple times. It was always going to Lassiter

Littlerich

2:12pm

Look at the video posted above, Epps never looks like he's expecting the ball, and raises his

Skeptical Optimist

2:13pm

It’s obvious that Epps wasn’t ever getting the ball. What?

deliciousmocha

2:44pm

Kody did not seem to think so. Watch the clip posted above you

SoBlueitHurts

3:01pm

Lasiter was the #1 on that play. Same play ran vs. WYO when Epps got the TD and ARod set up their D on this play

Mr Salad

I have been impressed with Lassiter. Hope his touches continue to increase.

Forzaitalia

2:05pm

His burst and toughness had me wanting to try him at RB against SMU

SoBlueitHurts

3:03pm

That route was perfect. The delay completely fooled the DB.

LifeLongLakerFan

2:05pm

Same here. It was an awesomely drawn up route combo.

IGlowInTheDark

2:06pm

Fantastic play design by ARod, very well executed by the players.

Junior Deputy

2:06pm

Great play design and execution. Loved it!

Atmospheric_Cougar

3:08pm

Also want to say, theres a 3rd route that can be run on this play

LeonMarek

2:09pm

Underrated, Jake booking it doing the knee slide and fake taking a picture

I'm glad college players can celebrate with more than just high fives now.

rtNelson

Didn't K. Hill get flagged for doing the gritty last year or the year before?

Locker CHUCKED that ball. It took a while to come back down.
