Moa and LJ are capable both as runners and pass blockers. Would love to see them the rest of the year.

AROD said in the second half, Baylor blitzed on every down, which they hadn’t

Genghis Spreads

Oct 7, 1:08pm

We were also trying to milk the clock at that point. Doesn't really lead to

RGGeemer

He said he didn’t take his foot off the pedal.

Genghis Spreads

Oct 7, 1:10pm

Yeah, I know. Just pointing out a potential strategy flaw to just flinging it.

RGGeemer

Oct 7, 1:13pm

except for most critical play of the game where milking the clock is needed,

indocoug

The play where Roberts was being held at the sideline, but no flag was thrown?

valcorger

Oct 7, 2:12pm

Tipped behind the line of scrimmage with Int by the D-lineman.

indocoug

It's not hard and not a reason to fail for a half. Did he use it as an excuse

stansburycoug

Oct 7, 1:12pm

No. He said we called plays to counteract it but we didn't execute to make them pay.

YIsForBrigham

Oct 7, 1:16pm

Yeah and he’s right. Lots of screw ups. Playcalling was fine.

YOHONOMOTO

Oct 7, 1:17pm

And the refs screwed up a couple of times

YIsForBrigham

Oct 7, 2:10pm

Bottom line: We just weren’t very good on O 2nd half

cajuncoug

Oct 7, 5:25pm

Care to break that down for us? Why isn’t it hard? Why isn't the opponent’s

Polecat

Once they are blitzing every time it basically takes away the advantage

stansburycoug

Oct 7, 1:34pm

Seems reasonable. I’m sure Pay leaving the game impacted things some as well,

Polecat

Oct 7, 2:31pm

It's not just a matter of knowing whether they are blitzing every down or not.

byusage

Oct 7, 3:46pm

You are right, but if you know its coming its much harder to disguise

stansburycoug

Oct 7, 5:05pm

Throw over the blitz...? How's that work with a sidearm delivery?

icecougar

Oct 7, 4:09pm

Thanks for chiming in Kalani, make sure to have the team ready to play since

CameronG

Oct 7, 1:54pm

Look, is it so out of line to ask questions when fans make solid firm claims

Polecat

Oct 7, 2:37pm

I'm a critic and don't think Baylor was all on Roderick but when the offense

CameronG

Oct 7, 3:57pm

Do you watch much CFB? Very common to have a good half followed by a worse one

puntersarepeople

Oct 7, 3:59pm

A season and a half of mostly poor offense and all is good in Zion

CameronG

Oct 7, 4:05pm

The offense has been mostly good, not mostly poor the year

puntersarepeople

Oct 7, 4:21pm

Other than K-State setting BYU with short fields, the offense did nothing

CameronG

Oct 7, 4:33pm

30 ppg vs power teams and we’ve possibly faced our toughest 2 opponents.

puntersarepeople

Oct 7, 4:40pm

The first half of Baylor was maybe ARods best half of football he s ever called

stansburycoug

Oct 7, 5:16pm

No thanks for being 5-0 huh?

puntersarepeople

Oct 7, 3:07pm

It puts more pressure on you when the starting C is out who calls all the

puntersarepeople

Oct 7, 3:08pm

Seems that they were also down to 6th and 7th string running backs. Probably not fully adept yet on picking up blitzers.

valcorger

Oct 7, 4:11pm

This is actually probably a bigger deal than Pay at this point

stansburycoug

puntersarepeople

I always thought throwing to the TE was a great way to beat the blitz.

Pollster

Oct 7, 1:16pm

Throwing to where the blitz is coming from is usually a good way to beat it

BIG XII Coug

Oct 7, 1:23pm

Yes and guessing wrongly where the blitz is coming from is also a great way to

YOHONOMOTO

Oct 7, 2:02pm

It probably shook the players more than him. Clearly execution was off in the 2H

arcawley

Oct 7, 1:16pm

Yep. Drops. Missed FG. Backups playing due to injury. Issue was execution.

ldssdl

Oct 7, 1:31pm

Missed FG was 49 yards

Genghis Spreads

Oct 7, 2:43pm

Yes. And he’s hit 2 from 50+ this season. He has the leg for that distance.

ldssdl

Oct 7, 5:19pm

He dialed up multiple plays that would have made them pay for blitzing. Didn't execute them well enough.

kccougar

Oct 7, 1:22pm

I read on PFF about Retzlaf before KState game...

Tweege

Oct 7, 1:35pm

That might catch up to us in the next game. Az blitzed Wilson a ton

deliciousmocha

Oct 7, 3:08pm

Correct me if I'm wrong, but BYU hasn't been down big all season.

DizzyDean

Oct 7, 2:31pm

They did adjust play calling to account for that. He called multiple passes to make them pay. Problem was bad execution.

yapacoug

Oct 7, 3:50pm

If blitzes are being disguised and hard to identify, then it ratchets up the degree of difficulty. Poor execution

TheLoneCougar

Oct 7, 4:00pm

Would be interesting to see how many of those blitzes…

iknownothing

Oct 7, 4:15pm

With our C injured on the sidelines & our lack of a dangerous RB, that was a reasonable strategy.

SinkingQuffa

Oct 7, 4:42pm

My response to stuff like this

cajuncoug

Oct 7, 5:03pm

Yeah cause Detmer never had bad halves

RGGeemer

Oct 7, 5:27pm

Blasphemy to even suggest such a thing

cajuncoug

Oct 7, 5:46pm

I suggest you ACTUALLY listen to the interview where this was said and note

rcbyufan

Oct 7, 7:39pm

I think it was mostly receivers dropping balls and bad reffing

YOHONOMOTO

Oct 7, 6:40pm

Then throw a screen pass and stop running it up middle. Not hard

zerome4sooners

Oct 7, 5:28pm

No kidding. Just call “screen right on two”. So easy.

The Y's Insider

Oct 7, 10:03pm

So, every team will then just blitz every down, if that’s the result.
