Last night we saw much more of handing the keys to Philo. But King is still King, especially in the red zone. And if he’s got one downfield throw in him, I’m fine with saving that for the 4th quarter next Friday. 😉
Did anyone see Taye Seymore on the field? I didn’t see him. And I thought we had lost Efford for the first half of COFH on that targeting call. Our defense is playing better.
Man what a crazy 4th quarter. That sideline completion to Stockton on 3rd and long was a big time play. And I’m glad to...
Has anyone posted number of snaps by King and Philo yet? I haven’t rewatched the game yet (I was at BDS), but it seemed that King was always in on first down and stayed in unless we got in second and long. So Philo had a mix of run and pass plays. If we picked up decent yardage on first down...
It’s only week one. Key said we were banged up going into this game, but I didn’t notice anyone missing from action. The chunk plays up the middle were harder to come by last night. It’s easy to get spoiled by running all over FSU the week before.
As for this old guy, I’m still trying to learn...
Agree that Key was thinking FG all along, and never give the ball back to FSU. The “four minute” terminology is unfamiliar to me, as opposed to the two minute drill, which I’ve heard a million times.
Key also said “I knew we wouldn’t get the ball back.” So I think I’m guessing correctly. Get to FG range in 4 minutes and bleed clock after you’re there.
Why did Key say we went 4 minute when we had 6:30, three timeouts, plus the two minute warning? Is the goal to get in FG range in four minutes and then try to run the clock down?
It has to be before he gets there in order to fake or execute the jet sweep, But unless we know the play call, it’s hard to say. Part of the deception is showing different looks? Great question though.
Thank you - yes, the Rich Eisen interview. My ears aren’t as good as they used to be. Thanks for clarifying, and I appreciate the explanations of those plays.
Key said that this is our bread and butter. One thing I always loved about this forum in the CPJ years were the film examples. Does anyone have a video breakdown or explanation of outside zone counter? I’m thinking that Jamal’s first big run that was set up to go left and he cut back to the...
I thought the same thing, but yes the FSU crowd was much louder when we had the ball. On a related note, how damn cool was it when Aidan Birr Sir lined up for that game winner with the war chant blaring?
Maybe this has been discussed already, but how do they enforce the cutoff of the comms at 15 seconds on the play clock? Is an official monitoring the channel?
When we came back from 14-0 in the bowl game last year (after doing the same against UNC), and knowing we were playing a team today loaded with talent that hadn’t played together yet. It’s hard to explain, but I told my wing man last week that we were going to win today, and I never felt like we...
