Question of the day

Black pants…good look

Leach's favorite combo

is the White on Black…coincidence?

by djollie111 on Oct 4, 2008 2:38 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Woods & Batch!

Setting the tempo – very nice consecutive 1st downs.

by djollie111 on Oct 4, 2008 2:39 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

they’re in a 4 man front, 7 in the box, and running the ball is eaaasy.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 2:40 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

What a start!!!

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 2:40 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

This might be a fun day

did you guys see adam james in that big h spot?

That was EASY

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 2:41 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

TD!!! 7-0 two minutes in!

Nice play by Leong after dropping the previous ball.

When was the last time

we opened with that many consecutive runs? 1997?

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 2:43 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

A&M last year. the first 5 plays were runs.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 2:44 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

If we can run at will like that, I saw we do it allllll day long.

you guys are busy. Wooooot. Nice to see leong get a td.

Go Raiders . . .

Let’s go D. Show us what you’re made of.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 2:44 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

very windy

let’s see how he does with the wind at his back.

by djollie111 on Oct 4, 2008 2:46 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

very very very conservative defense. also linebackers on their slot receiver

secondary just giving them wiiiide open zone.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 2:48 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

…aaaand it may be a shootout!

mcneill is going to

have to adjust otherwise it could be a long day.

Go Raiders . . .

by Seth C on Oct 4, 2008 2:51 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

They could at least TRY a blitz to see what happens. Interesting to see if he goes that route.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 2:52 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

KSU O-line

Was really not providing that great of protection. That was Freeman getting rid of the ball quickly.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 2:53 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

yup. there were NO defenders anywhere near the receivers on that drive.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 2:54 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Reed shaken up

had some trouble on the next play…hope he’s ok

Both pass defenses SUCK

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 2:58 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Good news

Is that Harrell looks very sharp

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 2:58 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

KSU D

Is showing cover 2 and then sliding a safety up

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 2:59 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I am loving this running aspect of our game. It seems purposeful instead of an afterthought. Great, great looks for Tech.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:04 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I hope Prince calls a blitz every play the rest of the game…this could get ugly if he does. Hasn’t worked hardly a lick yet.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:06 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

it’s caused 2 incompletions and forced TTU into a dink and dunk game. we had 3 3rd downs to convert.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:07 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Considering the number of plays we’ve run, I’d say it’s not working : )

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:08 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

by my count, that

was a 16 play drive, including penalty plays, against the wind.

Go Raiders . . .

by Seth C on Oct 4, 2008 3:06 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

GH is floating

balls outside, and that’s still worrisome, wonder if that’s a result of the wind.

cushion. 5 yards or more

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:09 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

1st 3rd down we’ve forced.

receiver was wide open, though.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:11 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I don’t understand this pass defense scheme at all

by jeffinhouston on Oct 4, 2008 3:11 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

There isn’t one :)

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:12 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

it’s the scheme

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:13 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

against wall.

wall has been beaten up a few times so far.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:11 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Now we can get a little score separation if we stay on track.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:11 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Hmmmm…did he follow the blocks?

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:14 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I hate this…

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:15 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

unreal – and put the defense in an awful position

Stupid, stupid, stupid

dammit leach.

when are you going to learn.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:15 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

and why does our scat back have the ball. batch has the strength to get that over.

also wall beaten again.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:16 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Exactly

If you are going to go for it with that little distance, either sneak it or run the big guy up the gut. Get it on th epush.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:18 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

1st quarter thoughts:

offense: we’re killing ourselves if we don’t score on an offensive possession.

defense: Wall specifically and the rest of the corners/safeties in general are being mauled in coverage.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:19 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

next to no blitzing.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:19 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Our coach gets in as much trouble as he bails us out. That was just a bad decision compounded by a terrible play call.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:19 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

yes. this is why mike will probably not find himself anywhere except TTU.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:20 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I understand going for it, given the wind, but it was the wrong play. I think they were really hoping they would jump offsides.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:20 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

confidence in his punter.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:21 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

That mentality was good when we were a 7-6 underdog team that had nothing to lose. Leach needs to pull his head out of his ass and realize when you have a lead you don’t go for it on 4th in your own effing territory.

by Red Raiderback on Oct 4, 2008 3:20 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Much less on your own 29…TWENTY NINE

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:22 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Review that one…

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:21 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

he was down. nice hold on that play: the defender tackled marlon williams.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:22 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

yup, nice tackle.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:23 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

That's what you do

When you need ahalf-yard.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:25 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

that play call was entirely decided by a few of leach’s predjudices: he has no confidence in his punter so he figured that a punt against the wind would go ~30 yards. He has no confidence in the qb sneak any more, harrell is the worst sneaking qb in the NCAA.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:27 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

sis harrel that bad

or is it that the only play they run from under center is the sneak?

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:29 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

britton lost his block a second early.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:29 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

punt…please

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:30 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Certainly a better formation for running

by jeffinhouston on Oct 4, 2008 3:32 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Harrell impresses me passing on the move.

Hey, how about that?! Carona makes it!

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:35 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

He seemed really tentative on that kick though – not much leg into it. But he did make it.

by jeffinhouston on Oct 4, 2008 3:35 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

With the wind

need a wedge, not a driver

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:36 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

he still takes a long time winding up: doesn’t start his motion until the hold is on the ground. takes between 1-2 seconds longer to get off the ground than it should.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:37 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I am HOPING that this time of possession advantage will pay off in the second half.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:36 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I think it will. KSU isn’t very deep

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:37 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Soooo, is the D ready for UT and OU? Or even OSU, at this point?

We score here, and I think we’ll see KState press and get a little flustered…and the floodgates should open. Let’s watch and see how this series plays out.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:50 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

This is where, if Tech steps on the throttle, the game should start to get away from KState.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:49 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

They’ve only really had one drive, if you look at it. It was a heck of a drive, though.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:50 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Need to control the clock, but continue to score.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:50 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yep…Kstate has had it less than 6 minutes.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:52 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Carona really does suck. Feel bad for him, but c’mon. Drill that through the endzone.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:53 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

that was absolutely not carona’s fault. i mean, the kick was short but that was a coverage error.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:54 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

welp, someone did call it: special teams is going to make the difference

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:53 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 3:55 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

We started out playing run, and they have had a pass game plan. We switched to cover it. Now they are going to be forced to pass.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 3:57 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, the line is getting a good push on Freeman.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 3:56 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

yellow flags

Sideline violation :(

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 4:08 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

that’s the most likely way that we lose this year: beat ourselves with penalties and dumb coaching decisions.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 4:09 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Let’s not relax right now…play defense

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 4:09 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Hey, where’s that KState guy who laughed at the idea of Tech holding them to less than 16 points? I know there’s a second half to play, and they’ll probably score on our second team defense, but still…

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 4:16 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

make sure

they’re all angled the same way…or you could do some experimenting with half one way, half the other. Maybe then you wouldn’t have to change the rotation in the winter. Keep me posted on the results :-P

Agreed. Still worried about our secondary. A lot. But so far, so good.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 4:24 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Once they started playing pass instead of run, it got alot better.

4th and Short

Thoughts on lining up Crabtree (who played some QB in high school) at QB to sneak on 4th and inches? It seems to me that he would be a significant upgrade to Harrell on the sneak.

How can you line up deeper than the 1st down marker on a passing down?

We need a corner to actually make a good play.

Nope, or the other guys. They all suck.
This is actually a nice drive…

had us confused

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 4:53 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

This is why

Tech is considered sketchy. They can’t focus an entire game. No way that they should have given up this drive. On mid-range passes and runs. Vanilla stuff we’re getting beat at now.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 4:54 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Tech was bad last year in 3rd quarters – Leach doesn’t seem to make good halftime adjustments or decisions it seems

by jeffinhouston on Oct 4, 2008 4:56 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

we’ve gone back to a very vanilla defense, a loose zone that is keeping the entire field in front of us.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 4:55 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

For the purpose of doing what, exactly? Letting them back in it?

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 4:56 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I guess I need ask you when we weren’t playing a very loose zone and vanilla defense this year?

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 4:58 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

2nd quarter.

it’s like McNeil decided to play prevent. because they decided that ksu’s offense wasn’t threatening enough.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:00 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

That drive looked wayyyyy too easy. Tech needs to focus. Problem is, KState took almost half a qtr to do it.

When your ahead by this much, that’s a good thing. The clock is their worst enemy right now.

Manhattan, Kansas looks like a poor man’s Lubbock.

Way to start the half...

We are going to try and let them back in.

Kentucky is hanging tough with Bama.

still playing prevent defense.

1st sack of the year.

let’s get 2-3 more to close this game out.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:14 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Harrell looked goofy on that pass…yet another fourth down.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 5:17 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

got them offsides but missed the PI

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:18 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

throwing from his back foot

He’s back peddling to buy time and not stepping into the ball.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 5:21 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

he’s had happy feet for some time.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:22 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

that’s the first time I’ve ever seen Harrell pull off the hard count to draw of the d-line

i guess KSU didn’t watch much tape.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:19 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Weak push on that.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 5:23 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

…and again…

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 5:24 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Just kick the freaking field goal. This bugs me, personally.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 5:24 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I think this is a reason Tech players won’t ever recieve Heisman love. We pad stats, plain and simple.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 5:25 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

disagree: you’re up by 24, need to put the game away. field goal is just picking up points, TD makes it theoretically impossible to come back, plus if they stop you, they have the ball on the 1 yard line.

ML’s first fourth down call that i agree with.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:25 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Wasn't James a Tailback in HS?

I’d like to see him carry the ball on short yardage situations.

by NM99 on Oct 4, 2008 5:26 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Just line up Brandon SeSay at QB for a sneak

by ndockray001 on Oct 4, 2008 5:27 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

that’s a good idea. GH is an awwwwwful QB sneaker.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:27 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Okay, I’m out. This is officially boring. Which is a good thing. See you next week.

by Tech92 on Oct 4, 2008 5:30 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

let's see potts now.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:32 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

UGH!!!

Somebody fix Carona! He’s too slow on the kicks. We can’t afford that in close games.

by djollie111 on Oct 4, 2008 5:40 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

sadly, i think it’s all coaching at this point. It’s something that the coaches need to take care of.

by kayakyakr on Oct 4, 2008 5:43 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

NICE!!!

Took it away from them on 3rd and goal! Deeeeeenied!

by djollie111 on Oct 4, 2008 5:52 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Not nice

blocked punt for TD? ref’s kept them standing around too long? Eh…still up by 30.

by djollie111 on Oct 4, 2008 6:00 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs
