3rd Down Conversion Rate

This is the Nix offense. WR screens on 1st down, making an automatice 2nd and 10. Then a dive up the middle for -2 to +2 yards, then 3rd and 8 or 12, and a slow developing pass short of the chains, then punt.

Al Golden on teleconference now. First question is about third down. Says 1st stringers were 3-for-6 in first half, 2nd were 25 percent.

Protecting Coley instead of putting heat on him. Exactly the problem

WTF game was AG watching? Maybe that's where the problem lies.
 
Why can't Golden just say "we certainly have to do a better job of converting on 3rd down?"

Turns out he added a 4th down conversion in there to make it better, even though he was asked specifically about 3rd down. Since ya know going 3 for 6 on 3rd/4th down against FAMU is so great. **** this guy.

i do not believe that anyone on this staff has even heard of this word. Its is just so hard to believe that AG and staff are that stubborn or that stupid.

What kind of bull**** explanation.....

For us, we talk in terms of money downs, third and fourth downs, so sometimes how we play third down is impacted by whether or not we believe we should go for it on fourth down. Having said that, the ones were 3-for-6 in money downs in the first half and the twos were 1-for-4. Obviously, we’ve got to do a better job overall on third down, but a lot of times, third down is tied into fourth down and we would like to have the number higher than 50 percent, 50 percent is not awful and the twos were 25 percent. We’ve definitely got to improve, but I think it can get distorted if we let it. It’s important we stay with what we’re trying to do and improve the things that we need to do in terms of throwing and catching and play selection.”

Brutha, Smoke. I tried everything in my power to forget the Nix experiment. But, I truly believe his shltty screen game is better than Coley's. Perhaps it was that Texas A&M game that was his best work. I just don't know WTF Coley is doing....But we **** well knew what the knights that say Nix was doin, as horrible as that was.
 
Lol at him creating a fake scenario called money downs, and having to add in 4th down as a way to make it look like his offense isn't an utter failure.

Oh, and we have to also break it down by 1's and 2's. Vs. FAMU.

I feel bad for the people still driving around in the used Buick Golden sold them, dragging their exhaust across the street, and giving a thumbs up to people while their car shoots out smoke.

I'll man up and admit to driving that beat up Buick. It's the proverbial "thrill of purchase, buyers remorse" deal at the moment. grrrrrr
