Thanks again. Tate crossed ~15 yards beyond the LOS against OSU and #11 did the same thing for Ole Miss. Was the same play just flipped the side of the crosser. The way we adjusted to that play gives me hope Hetherman and Co will figure it out. Lucas got much more depth against Ole Miss and shaded over much more than O'Conner did against Jeremiah and we should have had an easy pick on the play.1/3 rules are typically about receiver depth. I don’t remember how deep the crosser was against OSU. I’d have to see the play again. But, listen, it’s Cover 3. You’re gaining an entire defender dropped down, so there will be a trade off. Perhaps what we need to do is disguise it better or mix it with quarters until we catch them. It seems like our defensive coaches have made nice adjustments at times this season, so sometimes it’s really just a pick your risk situation. If you read my posts during the week, I thought Ole Miss would be a pain in the *** to defend bc they get the ball out so quickly. Outside of the explosive run, I thought we did a good job.
Assuming this is the same Graves who we used to have on the team?Chris Greaves was raping our WR all night (skillfully). He’s good at his subtle little tugs and grabs. But nothing was ever called.
he’s really good at disguising his holding and interference….super handsy with our WR all nightCorrect, why he always looked over at our sideline when our receivers couldn’t catch the ball after he mugged them
Yea. How nice for him he turned into a decent player.Assuming this is the same Graves who we used to have on the team?
Yup that and the targeting same drive were ridiculous.
The refs were on some BS. They their DB mug us and their Oline hold the **** out of us. Our DBs couldn't do the same.
His junior year CB tape was some of the best I’ve ever seen
A lot of high school DB tape is them getting INTs on bad throws and running around
His was a clinic on clamping every route possible
Shame about his injury his senior year
PJ was kind of a different human beingHow does it stack up to Patrick Johnson's tapes? PJ's were the best I've seen.
PJ was kind of a different human being
Antoine isn’t that type of freak of nature but from a technical standpoint maybe a better way to put it
Based on what I've seen, the Indiana receivers would have hung onto the ball, sad to say.
All fair.Maybe. But very few players are able to be as effective when they are consistently and physically challenged all game long. Jeremiah Smith is exceptional precisely because he holds up against that adversity. Indiana receivers have to prove they can do the same on the field against a Miami defense before I'll believe it.
Becker is legit 6'4 with 22.5 mph speed on the field. He is their main deep guy and a PROBLEM for sure. Digging into a couple of their games, their offense as a whole is impressive, their Oline runblocking is dam good and their RB run HARD. TO ME, their oline pass blocking is FOOD but they mitigate that by staying ahead of chains and RPO heavy in pass game (Highest % of RPO use in nation). Their WR core as a whole is very good, especially in the confines of their system. But Becker is a player avg 20 yards a catch, Sarratt is physical at the catch point and contested catch.All fair.
I will say I've watched a lot of them and that Becker kid can really play. Sarrat can play, too, but Becker is probably my 2nd biggest concern in a gameplan.
