3 and out for the defense to start the game! Liking the crowd's energy so far!

Falling on your ass when nobody is within 5 yards, missing a wide open man 10 yards down the field, missing Knowles for 6, and giving up on routes are all self inflicted wounds.

I really hope we can win, but they just look like the much better team.  Our defense is playing about as well as could be expected, but they can still score.  Conversely, our offense is having to work so hard to just gain a few yards.
Title: Re: Cats vs. Bears
Post by: Hurricane Cat on November 20, 2021, 05:56:32 PM
Yes, defense is doing well, even after that drive Baylor only has ~ 130 total yards, unfortunately our offense only has about half that many.
Title: Re: Cats vs. Bears
Post by: goCats101 on November 20, 2021, 05:59:40 PM

Sucks b/c it’s against such a trashy school/program and defense is putting up a good effort.

But this is Skyler. He's still good for a crazy 60+ yard TD pass or a key 3rd, 4th down play that eventually scores. He's average 60% of the game, bad for 20% and outstanding for 20%.

There have been some pressures, but our O-Line has given Sky more than enough time on numerous occasions. He just can't ever find the wide open man on time. We also allergic to any up-tempo which doesn't when we do start having some marginal success.

OK, so someone who knows more about this team and their situation please tell me why we throw J Lewis over Howard out there when Skyler went out? I understand the 4 game limit and burning a redshirt, but one of the biggest rough ridin' games of the year (in the current situation) is on the line, we don't put our best option on the field? I can't imagine our coaching staff feels Lewis is the better option, so are we that screwed at QB in the future? Makes no sense to me  :dunno:

Probably spoke with Howard and his fam that he was going to red shirt.  Since they hit bowl eligibility they probably didn’t discuss contingencies like this. 

Or it could be he is RS this year and plans to transfer out after the season.  No inside info, just throwing darts.

To me, neither of those situations are valid. You put in your best option to win the game no matter what. It's not like we were down 3TDs with no shot to win. Howard is a decent running QB, so go try to get the rough ridin' win. I don't get it.

So then you are of the mindset he’s injured and was dressed as an emergency 6th string QB?  As a fan it’s annoying AF to watch it go down like that, but we had no shot to win that game when Skylar went down, and we have no idea the discussions that have gone on about RS.

OK, I've been drinking, but I have no idea what you're asking here. I'm not talking about 6th string QBs, Howard is clearly the second string QB. Lewis is third based on playing time, Rubley is a ghost right now. You play your best backup in a close game to try and win the game. All I was saying is if we are so worried about burning a redshirt on a backup QB of the caliber of Will Howard, we must be mumped in our QB situation going forward.  With the new transfer portal thing, the worry about burning redshirts seems like a relic and teams like K-State needs to worry about the present and win games when you can. We were down 10 points with like 6 minutes left in the game.

Isn't the most plausible explanation that Howard has already decided that he's transferring and not playing anymore and will redshirt this year to have an extra year for wherever his path in life leads?  And that staff is cool with that as opposed to telling him to kick rocks now and making it a public thing?

I don't think we were really outcoached in the game, despite some questionable play calling, but rather we simply didn't have the athletes on the field to compete. Our recruiting must improve if we're to compete for titles rather than relying on a few star players to get us through the games.


Oh, and we've got to get a decent quarterback for next year, because there isn't one on our roster after Skylar.

So you're saying that a player who has already checked out, already decided to transfer after the end of the year, who dressed up in full pads, looked like he was warming up in the end of an FSN1 broadcast that showed him throwing on the sidelines, the coaching staff still keeps him in a "to go" type of situation just for show? Again, I don't pretend to know what the decision process was there but I think as a coaching staff, you put in your best option to win a gam at that time. To hell with redshirts and so sorry to mess up your opportunities at your next school, you play for K-State now dude
Title: Re: Cats vs. Bears
Post by: MakeItRain on November 21, 2021, 12:08:41 AM
Taq are you high? If the player wants to redshirt, you let him, if he doesn't you don't. If Howard and the coaches decide to forego the redshirt for Texas and the bowl game, then fair enough, but you don't make that decision with 3 minutes to go in a game in which you're down multiple scores, that's stupid.

I also think Trim's theory holds some weight. I wouldn't dismiss the possibility that Howard is planning on leaving, now I don't know why because as it sits now he's the starter for 2022, but if they bring in a transfer, he'll know by the end of spring ball whether or not they plan on starting him next fall. I think if Howard doesn't play next week, he might be looking to leave.

One thing to look out for next week and the bowl game is that I didn't see Max Marsh today, the QBs are right in front of my seats. That means if Howard doesn't play and Marsh is either hurt, gone, or whatever, Jake Rubley will be the backup for UT and the bowl game.

I wasn't able to watch the second half but Skylar hasn't been great executing screens this year. I can recall a couple called and he just couldn't handle pressure, I think it's obvious he never came close to recovering from his injury.

(Still are other ways to help him though)

I think it’s fair to say he had enough time, but he still rarely had a clean pocket. That said, my comment was mainly in reference to the fact we couldn’t get any kind of rushing game going outside of one long break by Deuce.

I think we’re on the same page in that I’ve never seen him do anything (interact with the other QBs or coaches, etc.) but stand in front of the press box phone watching the game.  You would think he’d at least be leaning into their conversations during the game.  Also, I wish I would have thought to introduce myself since I think I knew your seats are close.  I’m in row four, so I should have just leaned forward and asked Marsh if he was going to ever play.

Even more bizarre that he's in front of Rubley. Watching the sidelines Rubley almost always has his helmet and is ready to go. I'm still convinced that when Thompson got hurt against Southern Illinois Rubley thought he was playing. He got that helmet on and started throwing quickly.

I am in row 12 but I have to move next year because we are adding a seat.

i thought the interior OL played like garbage and so did Skylar which isn't a great recipe for offensive success.

That said, it's crazy that we ran 52 plays on saturday and only 13 of them were running plays to Deuce Vaughn or Joe Ervin -- especially on a night when Skylar was playing crummy.  Probably should've tried those more often.

Even if you take away Deuce's 65 yard run, he was still averaging >6 ypc.  What the heck MESS?

Keeping him fresh for a Friday CTR kickoff?  I'm pretty low FBIQ but were there no short routes, open TEs, screens, etc available. It seemed like we were looking downfield on all of the passing plays rather than using some shorter stuff to build a rhythm.
Title: Re: Cats vs. Bears
Post by: DQ12 on November 22, 2021, 12:57:00 PM
We did run at least one screen on saturday.  For whatever reason, we don't really run very many screens, period. 

I'd have to go back and rewatch to see what was available in the shorter passing game.  FWIW, when I was watching the game, I thought all our passes were too limited to the midrange and wanted to see us stretch a bit more.  Felt like Baylor's D was ultra focused on removing short/intermediate passes, and when we tried to get further downfield, OL didn't allow time for it.

But my main criticism is only 13 carries for the RBs.
