I asked in chat if warmack would get a chance, but was told no cause he sucks. But then he didn't suck.

I don't remember this at all, I remember the chat being very pro Warmack.

Positives: Cantele might not choke 100% of the time anymore.

Also, that Will Geary suplex (think it was him) was pretty BA. Plus also, that Davis guy seems to be pretty good.

Plus also as well: 3 points in two games.

Negatives: Just watching some other Big 12 games, I'd probably rather have any other team's QB right now, even though I still like Bazooka Joe.

I'll wait for a statistically significant sample size first, but I know Hubes missed a lot of pretty easy passes. If he doesn't shore that up quickly, decent teams will have a field day with us.

fan chingon and i were wondering about the following in chat:

waters threw moonshot bombs and huebner throws lazer beam bombs.  which is preferable?  both are aesthetically pleasing.

I think it depends if you have a Tyler Lockett. I think moon shots would be not so good with these WRs.

our WRs have such terrible hands. maybe moonshotz would land softer?

Joe has only taken a meaningful snap in two football games in his entire life. I think he will improve faster than most QBs do because he shouldn't be nearly as close to his ceiling as a typical college QB is.

Moonshots are only better if you have a wide receiver who's managed to get himself wide open deep downfield.

Our passing attack game-plan needs to be better. I don't know what we were trying to achieve with it.

This is probably true, which is why I said "right now." I do think we have a pretty solid running game, and if Hubes can shore up the intermediate passing, we could have a solid offense IF the WRs step up.

I really like Bazooka Joe as a runner.  Have since last season.  He's Klein-esque.  I think if he can continue to connect on some deep throws we will be in good shape, he needs to improve on the sideline throws and the short passes, but he's shown a QB that could win 9 games this year if this D is legit.

I really hope this game was a coming out for Andre. We aren't going to get past seven wins if Burton and Cook are the go to receivers.

This. But also I really want Cook to be good so we can call him Captain Cook.

Yeah, it was great. UTSA put 8 or 9 in the box and we tried to beat them deep in one on one coverage. Snyder was intent on ramming Hubener and Jones against that front early and finally opened it up.

The other good thing is no picks. The biggest knock I've heard about Hubener from the past is that he had a strong arm but didn't show the ability to throw accurate and often forced things in practice leading to interceptions. This was a big reason Ertz won the job, but so far Hubener doesn't seem to have that problem though maybe tougher competition will bring that out.

I went back and watched every play on offense.  I completely agree with the observations about the absurd paradox on Hubes' long balls being nice and the short stuff being really bad.  How does that happen?  Seems Chuck Knoblockish to me.

I don't think Hubes is a "good" runner at all.  I think he made some opportunistic decisions (which is good).  I am no Bear Bryant, but I personally don't expect to see those kinds of opportunities available when we play Big 12 games (KU notwithstanding).  I also agree that he will be injured early and often with that upright running style.

I wasn't convinced by a single thing in our running game.  Did not like it.  Those were non-power 5 yards yesterday.  I fully expect us to struggle massively running the ball in the Big 12.  This is probably why we throw deep so much, merely to open up the running game a little bit. 

Burton is infuriating.  Cody Cooks Can Catch.  Davis and Heath are encouraging.



Not too many people talking about how we have burned Delton's redshirt.  I see that as huge.  I know we can still red shirt him in a later year (Beasley), but with Hubes' absurd collision style of running and our inability to move the ball in short yardage situations any other way, Delton is going to get a chance to play this year.  Once he does, I pray he puts a choke hold on this thing (until Bill and Dana spaghetti brain him).
