    This is why I dont blame @RoadDawg55 for being done with Sirmon

    Also Wellington....

    Worst Linebacker group of my lifetime.

    There's a reverse angle of that play that looks even worser. Tryon vs Cal level.


    If Sirmon doesnt completely fuck it up Bryant makes the play on the QB

    Yep. If Sirmon stays home, that blocker takes him and Bryant makes the play. It would be a tough block for the USC player to make on Sirmon too.

    It was a shitty play by Sirmon and he was fooled. I’m not critical of him because of that okay. It’s his game on the whole. The coaches son cliches about having a high football IQ aren’t showing up at all.

    I don’t know why I’m defending him, but that play was the first time I’ve ever seen fink (or any usc q.b) keep it on a zone read. Maybe im wrong, but I doubt that was on any tape they watched.

    not good by Sirmon. I'm sure I'll get blasted for this but I think it was more of a good play by the USC TE. Sirmon committed to taking on that block and at the last moment the TE put a good move on him and then took out Bryant. I see this as a mistake that will be corrected with experience.

    Fire away.

    Monday morning Keyboard QBs don't normally notice those details. That is why watching film is different than jumping to conclusions after watching a clip a few times.

    This is close to an amazing play by Sirmon, little more experience and he'll know not to put his head down and miss the blocker, he'll do exactly what Bryant does and submarine that big bitch and clear up the play for someone else.

    Should have been holding on 73.
    Should have been illegal block below the waist on Bryant (which, weirdly, can be called on the defense).
    Should have been a blown-up TE by Sirmon. Probably. I'd have to know responsibilities in that scheme.

    USC OL is very good at holding and getting away with it.
