UM played like complete trash. This is 100% on the coaching staff. This team looks exactly like last years with zero improvements. We are actually worse and got exposed. It’s pathetic that most of us have seen and noted these deficiencies, but the staff hasn’t corrected them. Last night was our worst nightmares all coming true.
#1 Rosier.
OMFG -I’m not going to beat a dead horse. The guy hasn’t improved at all. He has no accuracy. He tucks the ball to run whenever his first read isn’t open. Last year Rosier made at least 3 bad decisions to run vs every one good run (fact based on every play from last season.) Last night he made at least 10 bad decisions vs every one good one. The guy thinks he’s Lamar Jackson but he’s closer to Jared Lorenzen in terms of running ability.
Aranda’s game plan last night was simple. We’re going to make Rosier beat us with his arm. He called run blitzes and put a spy on Rosier almost every play. The formula is out there for every team to copy. The staff has to get Perry or Williams ready the next two weeks or this will be a long season.
#2 Diaz’s Defense
Got exposed. The reddit analysis posted on here this week was dead on. The concern was that the LB’s had no gap integrity and hit the holes based on guesses. That this was cleaned up last season because of the immense pressure by Moten, setting the edge by Thomas, and Norton holding at the point of attack. Last night the pressure lacked by everyone except flashes from Garvin and Willis. There was no hold at the point of attack. The holes were so big a pedestrian RB ran for huge gains. If Homer was wearing purple and gold last night, he’d have run for 250 yards.
That brings me to...
#3 Knowles
Guess who was the single high safety who gave up the first long TD run? He ran right into the blocker rather than trying to tackle the RB. I’ve watched Carter and Hall play before. They both would’ve made that tackle. WTF is the staff doing playing this guy against anyone except Savannah St? The things I’d really like to say about this guy I can’t post...nuff said.
#4Cager
A deep ball thrown to him in the middle of the field and he doesn’t even attempt to catch it. It wasn’t a perfect ball, I get that. If you’re even 5% dog you jump up, use that huge wingspan, your 6’5 height to try and lay out or draw a PI call. That’s what any decent big WR does. Cager did this so many times last year and did it again.
Guys like Allen Lazard aren’t getting drafted and cut on NFL rosters. Auden Tate barely made an NFL team. These guys are elite compared to Cager. You guys saying Cager will get drafted are completely nuts. He won’t even be invited to the combine. Cager is trash.
#5 Searles
Donaldson is not a tackle. Reed and Donaldson should be the starting OGs. They are NFL guards. Don’t mess with that. You put in other guys until they gel at RT. Anyone with half a brain has seen this since the spring. Mahoney and Jones have no business playing against 4 and 5 star DL’s. Last night was proof if you needed it. The LSU DL is probably sending Mahoney syrup this morning to go with all the times they pancaked his ***. Someone needs to tell him he’s supposed to pancake the DL, not the other way around. Searles needs to be on the hot seat. His lack of development, lack of evaluation, and lack of recruiting cannot be masked any longer. He’s had 3 years and hasn’t found one guy to start at right tackle.
The bright spots...
#1 Homer
looks strong and fast. He broke so many tackles just to make 2-4 yard gains. He’s put in the work and it shows. I except him to declare for the draft in what’s going to be a weak RB class.
#2 Dallas
Looks like a legit RB. I’m not buying that 40 time they listed in camp but he’s quick enough. The added weight has enabled him to put his head down. He’s freakishly shifty for a guy his size.
#3 Hightower
This man picked up right where he left off in the spring game. He’s the best possession and jump ball WR on the team. He needs to be starting opposite AR with Jeff in the slot. This man is a TD machine and a the red zone threat we’ve been missing.
#4 Thomas
Finally, the hype on someone from this off-season was real. The sideline grab he made was proved he’s grown up and gotten stronger. He’s going to be the next Santana Moss if someone can actually throw the ball in his zip code.
