He is injured.  He missed several throws yesterday and his arm strength was horrible.  If our offense played like it did last night, there is no way we beat Texas.

I think a lot of its on Snyder. Once we got up by 2 scored in the 1st quarter we seemed to coast. 1st quarter we had 121 yards on 17 plays, good for 7.1 yards per snap.

The rest of the game we had 132 yards on 42 plays, good for 3.1 yards per snap.

Our offensive line didn't play great, and TCU's front played really well, but after the 1st quarter Snyder went into "let's get home" mode.

And we've had 2 poor offensive performances this year, TCU and ISU. The only two games we've been worse than our average yards per play. However, against every other Big 12 opponent, we've been better by at least 1 yard per snap offensively than what our opponents give up on average. Including pretty good defenses in OU and Tech.

my concern is more about klein, not the play calling.  we threw the ball 21 times which is very close to normal.  he badly missed a couple of long throws where it looked like he simply didn't have the arm strength to get it there.

I'll check when I rewatch it. He had some poor throws, but I thought it was more TCU mixing coverages than an injury. It looked like Patterson put a lot into the gameplan and Klein saw some coverages he didn't expect more than anything. It didn't help that TCU was able to get pressure so much either.

It depends. Snyder has been known to reign it in. After we got the lead he started to play the field position and the wind because it think he realized TCU wasn't going to score a bunch on our defense.

And it worked really well. It was 23-0 in the 4th and we cruised to a win. It was the classic "grinder" football game.

completely agree...  Plus, after re-watching it on DVR this afternoon, I'm convinced that we could have killed them consistently with the QB draw.  However, there was no reason to risk getting Klein hit consistently.

I think a lot of its on Snyder. Once we got up by 2 scored in the 1st quarter we seemed to coast. 1st quarter we had 121 yards on 17 plays, good for 7.1 yards per snap.

The rest of the game we had 132 yards on 42 plays, good for 3.1 yards per snap.

Our offensive line didn't play great, and TCU's front played really well, but after the 1st quarter Snyder went into "let's get home" mode.

And we've had 2 poor offensive performances this year, TCU and ISU. The only two games we've been worse than our average yards per play. However, against every other Big 12 opponent, we've been better by at least 1 yard per snap offensively than what our opponents give up on average. Including pretty good defenses in OU and Tech.

Isn't Snyder praised for being the one to NOT let his teams do that?

It depends. Snyder has been known to reign it in. After we got the lead he started to play the field position and the wind because it think he realized TCU wasn't going to score a bunch on our defense.

And it worked really well. It was 23-0 in the 4th and we cruised to a win. It was the classic "grinder" football game.

It was clear pretty early that TCU's best opportunity to score would be from a turnover inside the 50 or taken to the house. Thus, we got pretty vanilla on offense to minimize that chance.

_FAN your time is too valuable to waste arguing someone who is not interested in anything other than trolling you

Good point.
Whoa, KU only had 29 passing yards. 

That's an absolutely nuts discrepancy.

Good point.

I guess the media and you were full of crap when they predicted we would lose to TTU because of their defense, the week leading up to their blow out.  Maybe they were on a fishing expedition, like you in these threads.

The numbers don't lie, Tech's defense is terrible (http://www.cfbstats.com/2012/leader/25354/team/defense/split01/category10/sort01.html).

yeah, a good defense totally allows KU to rush for 390 yards against them.  good grief.
T-Y _Fan.  Kimmy, the numbers don't lie.  Like I said, you and the media must have been full of crap with your predictions the week before we played TTU.  Might as well give it up.  :lol:

Klein to Harper in the 1st looked pretty healthy.

Know we needed to be more balanced on O this year, and our Oline has enabled that, but I do like watching Ck jackhammer through a line behind his blocks, and hope we get to unleash that in the mnc.

He is injured.  He missed several throws yesterday and his arm strength was horrible.  If our offense played like it did last night, there is no way we beat Texas.
Don't fret. UT doesnt have our defense or coach.

Edit: Rename thread "Whistling past the grave yard". Sure, help Klien by not running the draw (one nice play) and let him get racked repeatedy by our 4 man rush? Why not take him out completely? Keep taking what happened lightly by all means. If Snyder feels that way UT will roll you guys. BTW, Baylor is the ultimate trap situation.

carnes is right.  klein's brain wasn't functioning properly, and it showed up in everything from bad throws to bad reads.

afaik, concussions are bruised brains, and afaik, brains heal at the same speed as skin or other places that get bruised.  so he should be fine for texas.  thank god for that goddamn bye.

Quote from: LHC Bill Snyder Post Game Press Conference
We had to try to find ways to move the ball, and it got to a point where we were conservative in order to get the game over with. The score dictated that.

additionally from LHCHCBS on Klein:
Quote
"He played reasonably well," said coach LHC Bill Snyder. "He made the plays he had to make in the ball game, but we were probably a little conservative for him. We could have given him more chances than we did."
