Biagi... grrr

[outoftown]

Despite defense struggeling at times, and offense having major regression NT could have been in this game in the 4th quarter if special teams coverage had been better. I was a defender of special teams earlier in the season, but I am coming around on Biagi having serious flaws.

Kicker and punter themselves are actually quite good, but coverage is capital B Baad. Both returned kicks/punts were simply badly drawn up plays, and I was thinking oh-oooh immeadiately when they left the kickers foot, while also being convinced that the ball actually went where it was supposed to. When that happens, it usually means those plays are to a good part on the coach. That can't happen.

Agree.  Coverage was bad last night on those kicks.  Over pursuit and broken containment.

Biagi ST had a horrible night no doubt.

I called al the ST TDs. When you pooch kick to one of the fastest players in the nation, he is gonna go somewhere

[Green Crazy]

Don't pooch it if they are standing on the 10 and ready for it.

[Mean Green Matt]

If we could have avoided the ST mistakes we very easily could have been in the game late in the 4th. The defense was shaky no doubt but it had done enough to give us a chance.

The pooch kick was after the UH KO return TD. It was our staff saying we don't trust our guys to kick and cover so we're going to concede the 40 yard line to you (as if they trust their D more).

I’m talking about the short kick that was returned for a TD. Why kick it to the 10? I know our kicker can kick it out of the end zone.

Mooney's leg really isn't that strong and he was kicking into the wind there...That was just what it was...poor coverage and contain by the KO team.

WHY WAS HE KICKING OFF THEN???? Kenworthy has been doing the job well recently, so why not put him in or Zach Williams

He shouldn’t have been.  Biagi needs to answer for his sins.  He really hurt us last night.

There were points in the game where we would have been tied had those kick return TDs not happened.
