It was (potentially) the call of the game. Perfect if Duke was in. Duke gets through the line much faster. Could've been ballgame.
Also, did you check out the PLAY after??? I could make a thread on this but Kaaya was going DEEP to coley on a deep post, I beliee COley had a step on the safety, he was 1on 1 with him, but Ramsey came on a blitz and tipped it. Yearby was also wide open on a nice move he made on the LB no one around him.
the play after it was dumb on so many levels imo and shows areas Coley still needs to improve on. On 3rd and 9, down 4, on our their 44 w/ 46 sec left we ran a PA pass. Who was it supposed to fool??? What was the purpose of the PA fake?
Even worse was the post by Stacy. Ramsey blitz off the slot, but instead of it being a hot read route we ran a deep post on a Cover2 high safety and we had (herb I believe) running a crossing route. Both plays took entirely to long to develope, where if you just have Stacy break off his route when Ramsey blitzes it's a easy pass and catch for a 1st down. And before anyone starts blaming Stacy saying he ran the wrong route he didn't. You know how I know? Because on the previous drive on a 3 rd and long FSU ran the same Ramsey blitz off the slot (it was Phillip on that play) and instead of having PD just break the route off he ran a deep corner iirc and Ramsey was able to get in and tip the pass as Kaaya was stepping up into the pocket to try and throw the ball. It ended up as a high floater in the middle of the field and we were lucky it wasn't picked off. Why, why, why would we not anticipate FSu doing that when they've blitz Ramsey off the slot all season and they just did it to end our previous drive making us kick a long FG. It's not like we don't have hot routes in our playbook or haven't used them in games before. They didn't even try and disguise it or have anyone drop into the zone Ramsey was leaving open at all smh.
If you were in the gameday thread...i stated..'in the third quarter.." when are we going to go to the area in which they keep blitzing Ramsey". I mean their sending this guy as an extra and we are running long developing plays which was confusing and frustrating to me....
then i thought about it...they Made Jeremy Cash look like ed reed against Duke when he did the same exact thing and we had no answer.
I mean just one time he "tried"
with the rb slip with Yearby but he knocked it down...but from in the third
i wanted to see screens to the rb ...or dear i say Bubble screens to that side of Ramsey. I mean one broken tackle and your off to the races.
