Ohio could have attempted that 2 point conversion from the 10 and they would have made it 10 out of 10 times. After that TD, that team was beat.

But I watched that from the comfort and dryness of the hub club. Ohio game is one of the reasons I decided to purchase club seats.

Let's turn this into a prior game weather thread. My worst experience was the Ohio Monsoon game. Steady rain throughout and a gut punch, 4th and 17 TD on the last play in OT for the loss.

MGB: It's time for the Get Your Rear on the Record contest
UNT90 replied to Brett Vito's topic in Mean Green Football
Or that both UTEP and UTSA are road games and UNT has been a TERRIBLE road team the last several years. Or that we don't have a kicker that can make a 41 yard field goal consistently, if at all. But, hey, Seth Littrell is here, so all those things, plus an S ton more, magically disappear in the heads of the undereducated rah rah fans. -

MGB: It's time for the Get Your Rear on the Record contest
UNT90 replied to Brett Vito's topic in Mean Green Football
Yes, Brett, you homered it up this year, so I will follow your lead. Looking objectively at the schedule (very tough in conference), a team with only 68 scholarship players, and those players having to get used to a new system, the evidence based prediction would be 1-11. But im a homer so I'm going with 2-10, hoping against all logic that UNT beats UTSA on the road (very unlikely). That and Butt Cookman are the only 2 winnable games I see on the schedule, and both those games are iffy. Play a lot of underclassmen and prepare for the future is what this year should be about. -

I think you view everything in a picture perfect, more than best case scenerio for this offense, and I think that is incredibly naive. Push the DEs out? What if the DEs beat the OGs to the inside? Remember those large splits you talked about? Straight line to the QB. Going through progressions takes time. Pocket awareness? You have never seen Morris play one down of live action FBS college football, yet you have anointed him all-CUSA apparently. You have zero idea what his pocket awareness is like under live fire. Much like your "better than DT" statement and your "made zero errors against a top five defense in practice" statement, this is just a complete bullshit statement. You have zero idea what his pocket awareness is like. Quit telling people this offense is going to be the next coming. It isn't. Not this year. I think many will be surprised, some even maddened, by how many times Littrell runs the football against SMU. This is going to take a year or two.

I'm saying our rotations are thinner with less talent at the bottom of the rotation. I'm saying that fresh talent beats tired talent every time. I'm saying this is a lot of the same talent that lost by 59 points to an FCS school. A school with 65 scholarships. I'm saying a system isn't a miracle. I'm saying this is the same crap we heard when Dodge came in. I'm saying talent trumps systems EVERY time. I'm saying you are absolutely drunk on green Kool aid. I get it. It's preseason. Everyone wants to believe this year will be different and we will magically go to a bowl. It wont. The talent isn't here yet. Give it time. For reference, see SMU 2015.
-
We have less than 70 scholarship players. Most teams we play will have superior athletes.
-
Gee, nothing to argue my point. Not surprising anymore. Things just won't suddenly be magical because Littrell is coach. That isn't the way the college football world works. See SMU 2015...
-
Quick slants IF your receiver can get off the line of scrimmage in press, bump and run coverage. Even then, that WR is going to have a DB draped all over him when the ball arrives.
-
Few to no mistakes against a top 5 defense? Jeez dude! If that were true he would be starting QB for Alabama right now. He was third team, so he didn't even see reps "against a top 5 defense" after he lost the battle for the starting spot and didn't even claim the backup spot. This is just ridiculous green koolaid chugging bulsh. If the OL is terrible (a distinct possibility), records may be set, but the record set may be sacks given up in a game. It doesn't matter if your receiver breaks free long if your QB is on his back before that break. This truly isn't rocket science.
-
And those short range routes will be press covered. WRs will be bumped off their routes. And if the OL can't provide more than a couple of seconds of protection, Morris will either be on his back or throwing the ball to Littrell on the sideline. You asked for specifics and I gave them to you. How the hell is that off topic?
-
Well then, it's great to think that quick hitting routes will help the QB, until you realize this: Once defenses figure out that the OL can't stop the pass rush, get ready for press coverage EVERY DOWN. That means zero space between receiver and DB. That means forcing the QB to read and react with a pass rush 2 seconds away. You can claim that this offense will do this and that, but defenses adjust to offensive weakness. I expect teams to dare is to throw deep, starting with SMU in the first quarter. The fact that Morris doesn't throw a great deep ball will also factor into this defensive decision. If I'm the opposing team DC, I'm bringing the heat on the pass rush, whether that's 4, 5, or 6 guys. I'm forcing a QB with no experience to beat me and to beat me with minimal time to throw.
