[QUOTE="GTrob21, post: 12045, member: 84"] Watched the game twice. Here is my honest assessment. 1) Louis Young still is bad, I too had high hopes for him. He grabs and doesn't look for the ball. I have never played CB or talked to a coach of one, so I don't know if this is technique or not, but to me it sure seems as though its an automatic 15 yards... He is much better is short cover routes and the bubble routes. Louis Young is a physical guy, who just can't seem to cover the back 3rd. 2) Except Gotsis, our DL got manhandled last night. There were many plays where multiple holes were opened up by the BYU OL. Since I was a running back, it reminded me of the drill where they would lay three mats down, you had to pick a lane and there would be 1 guy on D. You had a 1/3 chance of getting your bell rung, except vs us, it looked like the RB had a 100% of picking up 5 plus yards a carry. I don't know what their Yards per play was in the 1st half but it had to be 6-7 yards or even more. 3) Roof made adjustments and despite a horrible 1st half, kept up in the game in the 3rd. We held them to 3 straight 3 and outs at one point after half, and we had the opportunity to turn the tide and win the game. Kudos to Roof and his staff. 4) Offense: honestly our Offense is horrifically bad right now. Probably the worst since Johnson got here. I know Johnson thinks otherwise, but Vad missed huge pass plays practically all night. We don't run much of the triple option, it's mostly the double option reads, but when Vad does make the correct read, the plays usually turn out pretty well. Vad has a tendancy to hold onto the ball though and usually the play stalls 5) Offensive Line: Sit all them down and play the back-ups. I may be wrong, but it couldn't get much worse than what we are seeing. Send a message, do something. 6) Tackling. In the first half we missed a good amount of tackles. We seem to be getting worse as the season goes on. 7) Fan base: We are divided and fighting with each other. As an organization this is not a good place to be in, if I were the CEO, this would be my number one concern, and it reminds me the last days of Chan Gailey. I honestly don't think Paul has the answers right now, and I think He is frustrated. 8) There is no way out for atleast a year and a half unless some big donor steps up. Not likely to happen, but I think that is the only way. I also expect season ticket sales and the luxury suits to take a noticeable hit next year. 9) I think we will go 7-5, hopefully 8-5 with a bowl win :) [/QUOTE]
