Title: Tech-nicality
Post by: catzacker on October 22, 2012, 07:48:18 PM
So, halftime last year, KSU's sitting with 94 yards of total offense, though only down by 8 thanks to a pick 6 and baby lockett.  Tech ends ups with 580yds of total offense (KSU 339).  Tech's scoring defense ranked 117 last year (KSU's scoring offense ranked 34).  Tech turned it over 3 times and had 2 FG's blocked. 

This year, KSU's scoring D is 14th, Tech's is 34th.  KSU and Tech are tied nationally for scoring offense @ 5.


Concerns?  Thoughts?  I am concerned because Tech seems patient enough on offense to dink and dunk down the field and we're more than willing to give them that and Tech's defense (even as crappy as they were last year) had some success early shutting down our run game.

after last year's game tubbs basically called snyder a simple-minded Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) and his football team a bunch of JV'ers.

Here's an easy way to decide if our defense is better.  Last season we had Skippy Chris Cosh, this season we have Steak House Hayes.  Any questions.  :billdance:

We weren't nearly as polished last year. That was our second road game. Our defense was much worse against the pass. Tech is improved, but we're much more improved.
Title: Re: Tech-nicality
Post by: eastcat on October 22, 2012, 08:45:00 PM
Tubberville doesn't make many adjustments after the season starts, let alone at half time. As the season wears on people figure out TT's scheme and start beating them. Snyder should have lots of TT game tape to dissect.

Post by: kso_FAN on October 22, 2012, 08:48:01 PM
Tech does some nice things and has a solid defense. But I think turnovers and special teams could really hurt them in Manhattan. Unless the Cats suddenly decide to turn the ball over, I think we'll be fine.

1 key turnover could be the difference in this game, imo.  i think they score at least 28 24 points.

another concern for me is that we've played worse at home the last 2 years than on the road.  it seems like every big 12 team we've played at home the last 2 years has scored a TD on their opening drive.

edit:  only baylor, ou, and ku have scored on their opening drives at BSFS

So as long as we don't score 20 points less than our average we should be fine, IYO?

Evidence Tubbs is a simple-minded respect. Also if we play the entire game like the 2nd half in Lubbock we are going to Ass Fart their faces off.

WGAF how many points we average.  We only scored 26 points against isu who has a worse defense than tech's.  We scored 17 offensive points against OU.  those are the only decent defenses we have faced this year.

TCU did everything they could to lose this game and still had a chance to win it.

Threw 2 picks. (Tech had 0 TOs)
Gave up an onside kick.
Drove inside the Tech 30 four times and settled for FGs.

TCU ran for 184 yards and threw for 332 while outgaining Tech by 127 yards. Plus TCU had 111 return yards compared to 26 for Tech.

I will give Tech credit because they found a way to win, similar to what we did last year multiple times.

However, K-State does not seem like the type of team to lose these types of games. TCU showed that you can exploit Tech's defense, and with a RS FR QB at that. I simply don't see K-State making the high number of mistakes that TCU made to lose this game. I just don't see this Wildcat team doing that. So while I respect Tech and know tha they are a solid team, I do not fear them and I will say with confidence that K-State should win this game by 10-14 points.

Pro tip:  Should we stay undefeated, each game will be the toughest game.  TT is tough because they are the best team.  OSU is tough because it’s sandwiched between TT and @ TCU.  Baylor is tough because it’s a roadie and they have a fantastic offense.  And Texas will be tough because if we are undefeated then, the amount of pressure will be so ridiculously immeasurable.

Sometimes I wonder if you people understand how hard it is to go undefeated.

OSU scares me the most. They aren't that great because they are incredibly inconsistent, but if they put together a nice game against us, they are going to be tough to beat.

depending on Lundt's status, they'll be playing with their 3rd string qb (and friend of OK_Cat).  He's a chode, we win easily.

Talking about Chelf, right?

yep.  word is that lundt isn't anywhere near where he needs to be health-wise, but Gundy might pull the trigger regardless.  but if not, clint is their starter.  good dude, but not a great qb.

It would really hurt the image of our program to have to play against a coach who blatantly disregards the health and well-being of his players because of his win at all costs attitude

No problem. It really didn't take that long to go to the combo-fanning board and type "juggalo" in the search box.

Speaking of things that concern you about Tech’s offense, I’m worried about their shotgun, RB offset, w/ four WR sets (3WR to one side, 1 WR to another).  This usually pulls AB away from the LOS and leaves a gaping hole for the RB.  All the guard and center have to do is handle the DT and it’s wide open, our ends are usually up the field.

Valid concern, but I think we'll be prepared for the run.

First, Tech is a pretty balanced team, running the ball 43% of the time (WVU was the same) and we tend to adjust well. We will be ready to stop their run game. With spread teams and 4 wide sets you are going to have gaps on the snap, but if defenders read their keys well you generally can get people to the football. Plus, while balanced, Tech still is going to throw it more than they run it; I highly doubt they'd be willing to sustain an entire drive from the formation you suggest and just run the ball. They simply don't do that. Plus, we've made some adjustments in coverage to keep AB closer to the box, like moving TZ out on the #2 receiver in a trips formation.

Second, we adjust well. Tech's a solid running team at 4.7 YPC, but WVU was as well at 4.6. WVU had a 13 yard run on their first carry, but then didn't get another run more than 3 yards until they were behind 45-7. They finished the game at 3.3 YPC. OU has the best YPC in the league at 5.9 and we held them to 3.4 and their best rush was 13 yards. We haven't allowed an opponent more than 3.6 YPC for the game all season. Plus in 3 of their 4 Big 12 games Tech hasn't even reached 3.0 YPC.

We'll have to contain it, but I'm not fearful of Tech's running game. Getting them off rhythm with their quick passing game will be the key on defense and hopefully forcing 2-3 TOs.

Techs run game got absolutely stonewalled against TCU outside of one 47 yard TD run.

Good grief.  Now, I am worried that TCU is our toughest game left.  Ugh.

I'm inclined to agree with you. Tech is the best team, but TCU is probably the toughest game.

No way. I'll be at the TCU game. The Cats haven't lost a game I was in attendance since 1988.

Why don't you attend more games then? You selfish bitch.

Most the time in man I think, but I'll have to go back and look. I'd guess we'll see it some against Tech. I think Tech has a better scheme in the passing game, but WVU had more dangerous receivers.

OU seems to do more defensively than we do.  Which was surprising because they didn’t do much against us (in terms of blitzing).
