You back bitch!!!! Let’s go and let the shit talking beginMitch_Cumsteen said:
Nobody has really been able to run on Texas this year, save for the first quarter against Bama and OU's qb got loose. A lot of those yards you listed were in garbage time or skewed by one long run. The DTs Sweat and Murphy have been amazing and Texas has been able to play basically the entire season with a light box because of it. I would be surprised if Washington can run it consistently and if they can, the game is essentially over. I think you're better off spreading Texas out and spamming the crossing and underneath stuff, then going deep once the safeties creep up. That's how Texas has been hurt this year. Lots of injuries in the defensive backfield have contributed to that, but they should be healthy (or at least healthier) by game time. Mostly nagging type stuff vs season ending.DawgDaze71 said:Texas is #1 in Run Stopping. 10th In defending the Pass. Like Washington they are prolific in scoring which overcomes defensive issues. Here is the performance against the top Big 12 RB they faced.
1. Gordon II - OKS - 13-24 (2.6)
2. T.Brooks - TT - 19-95 (5.0)
3. D.Neal - Kan - 8-45 (5.6)
4. E.Bailey - TCU - 21-98 (4.7)
5. D.Giddens - KSU- 9-22 (2.4)
Given DJ's style of running I think we can avg 4+ YPC against their defense. I don't know what teams in the Big 12 have good OL. Watched Gordon II in some highlights. He's more of a fast, gash you for 30 but doesn't look like a tackle breaker.
Looking at the Big 12 beyond Texas and OK I just don't see a team that I think Washington would lose to.
Oline in the Big 12 typically suck, but the refs make up for it by letting them hold every play. It cuts both ways because I don't really know how good the Texas oline is, either. K-State probably has the best oline and running game in the conference outside of Texas, and the Horns blew them up. That game was close mainly because our backup QB shit down his leg after getting a big lead, but once KSU abandoned the run and started spreading it out, they moved the ball. Last year, Washington dominated the trenches in the Alamobowl. Forget about all the other bullshit in that game (dropped passes, etc.), it felt like Texas got manhandled on both lines. -

Milroe is okay but couldnt hit the broad side of the barn against either Texas, or the vaunted USF skwaad -

Point stands. You guys havent been tested by a passing offense anywhere close to the one we will bring down to Nawlins. Oklahoma would be the closest and is your only loss -
@Mitch_Cumsteen you're a kind man thank you sir. I felt like in the Alamo bowl we got good pressure on Quinn with Martin and Trice but the Longhorn OL stepped up and gave a decent pocket for most of the game. I'll have to rewatch.
I remember the young DB 6'3 and fast. Texas has length and speed which is what makes a kid 6 and 5 star.
I expect a shootout. Both teams have done what is necessary to win the tight games. -
UW’s offense is the most talented in the nation, don’t let some of the poor performances fool you. Back to full health for the first time since week 3.Mitch_Cumsteen said:

UW can apply so much stress in the passing game that running lanes will be open.

I don't disagree. Big 12 QBs weren't very good this year. The OU game is an outlier, though, if you know anything about that game, its setting and history. Gabriel hurt Texas with his legs moreso than his arm, save the last drive where Texas lost its mind in coverage. The really bizarre games were Houston - and that kid shredded Texas when he was at Tech, too - TCU, and KSU. Texas got out to big leads and all of them abandoned their previous plan and started slinging it around. PK sat back in his shitty shell and they all came back. The last two weeks against Tech and OSU, they started pressing more and dominated. Good luck with that against Odunze. Penix is a different animal and a bad matchup for Texas. I honestly would have rather faced a Michigan team that would want to pound it between the tackles.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

That's Watts, a Texas kid who transferred back home from Ohio State. He's been hurt off and on all season and primarily who I was talking about regarding DBs getting healthy. They have other injuries at safety and the CB depth is pretty good, but he was outstanding the first half of the season before he suffered a rash of injuries, including jacking up his back on the first play against Texas Tech and sitting out the Big 12 CCG. They really need him on 1/1 but he should be ready to go by then.DawgDaze71 said:@Mitch_Cumsteen you're a kind man thank you sir.

Only seen bits and pieces of UT games this year, but it seems like the pass game has a lot of similarities with Oregon. Mostly pretty short, high % passes and the skill guys are good enough to break them for long gains. Does Ewers throw well/accurately downfield and I just missed it?Mitch_Cumsteen said:

Dude, everyone wanted some of Michigan. Fucking bama got luck by avoiding Washington or Texas. Michigan is probably one of the most offensively challenged teams in the playoffsMitch_Cumsteen said:

UW has the ability to run on the edges as well though and our WR's run blocking is highly under rated. Our O-line is athletic for being big boys and pulls really well to create space on the perimeters to run away from those DT's.
Penix can run too but it's only going to be to keep the defense honest or to pickup a critical 3rd down here and there.
Wouldn't surprise me to see a modest first half total for run yds but then the average yds per carry to creep up in the 3rd qtr and break out in the 4th. -
Also, what I'm hearing at the office is Washington is going to get bulldozed by a dominant Texas...
Me and the Ohio State guy both laughed at that. He had to tell them they had obviously not watched Washington at all this year. -
The script. 10 play drive early not shown. 16 play, 13 play...yes we know Kwat. Death by paper cuts. Grubb started out bombing but channeled David Shaw
-
The difference is, this year we are good enough to hit more than one deep bomb (I think our first play was a flea flicker to Polk)?RaceBannon said:The script. 10 play drive early not shown. 16 play, 13 play...yes we know Kwat. Death by paper cuts. Grubb started out bombing but channeled David Shaw
Then it was depth by 1000 cuts on a Pete K defense as usual, and Tualapapa stiff armed and out athleted their defense to go over 100 yards.
This is such a good matchup for us. -
We know who Kawasaki is and we know that his defense is tailor made for Grubb. Pretty sure Grubb and Kalen both are thinking, we are about to make so much money after this game
-
Deep ball has been very inconsistent for Ewers. He has thrown some absolute dimes mixed in with some "who the hell is he throwing that to" passes. But Texas is going to take its deep shots. Either way, the offense is much better this year. Ewers is definitely in command and they have more weapons. They really haven't missed a beat since the star RB Brooks blew out his knee. Biggest issue has been red zone and short yardage. They've gotten more creative over the past few weeks though and its gotten better.CatGut said:

Texas is similar to Oregon in offensive capability but Ewers is a much better downfield passer than Nix.
I have Texas down for 35 points. -

Texas isnt getting above 30 unless UW is nearing 40
Cook it. We are controlling the trenches -
I think UW is going to really surprise Texas on offense. UT has played a very light schedule outside of bama, they are not accustomed to UW’s level of offensive talent.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

Yeah, on paper it has the makings of a shootout. I'd like Texas chances better in a lower scoring game, I think.
Also... I've been to New Orleans about 1000 times if anybody needs any restaurant or bar recs. There is a place close to the French Quarter where you can buy a fried shrimp po-boy and they will give you a free rickshaw ride to the game. Let me know if anybody needs a hookup there. -

Stat wise in conference games Texas is a poorer version of Oregon (particularly on D) … but in a worse conference
What the Texas people don’t get is how we run so much toss sweep as a means to out leverage and complement the passing game
Not saying that the Texas DTs aren’t good (they are) … but we should be able to neutralize them a bit
What always gave Kwat’s defenses the most problems? -

Also... I've been to New Orleans about 1000 times if anybody needs any restaurant or bar recs. There is a place close to the French Quarter where you can buy a fried shrimp po-boy and they will give you a free rickshaw ride to the game. Let me know if anybody needs a hookup there. -

Kidding.
Kind of.
Of course, I didn’t know it was a cross dresser until later when I was leaving their room.
pee wee Herman and slutty madona made twins on Halloween in Abilene. Only good thing that came out of 6 months in that hell hole. The hawks won the SB that year as well, won’t forget that. -
Texas’ defense is fast. They will be the fastest team UW has played at the second level. Playing them side to side will play into their strengths and I don’t expect that to be a big part of the UW game plan.Tequilla said:Stat wise in conference games Texas is a poorer version of Oregon (particularly on D) … but in a worse conference
What the Texas people don’t get is how we run so much toss sweep as a means to out leverage and complement the passing game
Not saying that the Texas DTs aren’t good (they are) … but we should be able to neutralize them a bit

Your WRs and your QB though impress the hell out of me. They are going to make plays and this is going to be one hell of a ball game.
As a Texas fan, I’ve been following UW all season and been saying they should be one of the favorites from the beginning.
Texas is light years better than they were the last time we played y’all. But I think UW very well may be the most complete team I’ve seen this year.
I did not want to play UW… would rather have played either of the other 2 (already beat Bama)… I think Texas can pull it out but I think it’s going to be a classic

Does your team put on pads with GPS in them to see how fast they are like Oregon?BornInAtx said:

You may be right and your team is talented and fast, but Oregon was the sweetheart pick by many to cause damage in the playoffs and were ranked above you guys the entire year.
That is until Washington shoved the ball down their throats for over 450 yards on a neutral field.
As impressive as your Bama win was, the OU loss with a healthy Ewers was a result of your gassed defense bending over in the last 2 minutes. -
I love this type of analysis because it's flat out lazy ...BornInAtx said:

If you really watch what UW does offensively in detail, you'll notice that the run game is a supplement to the passing game
The offense does a ton of shifting pre-snap and it's with a purpose whether it's trying to isolate a matchup, force a change to a defensive call, or something as simple as just getting the defenders out of position.
The picture here isn't great but it will do the trick for illustrative purposes ...

UW's primary 2 run plays are a toss sweep and a counter ... what makes them so difficult to defend is that they go in opposite directions and it really forces challenges on the defensive possession.
Here, Oregon is lined up at the top of the formation with a 3 versus 3 situation and over-indexing itself at the bottom half of the formation protecting against the counter and any drags/crossers/motions across the formation. Based on the formation you can almost guarantee that Oregon's slanting in the run game towards the top of the formation.
At the snap, the toss element basically torpedoes any of the backside pursuit given the location and with the pulling linemen you find that UW's at a 6 vs 4 advantage in blocking ... that's going to be a WIN each and every time.
The only chance that Oregon has to defend the play is for the CB defending Rome to instantly attack the edge and get in before the pulling OL can get in front ... problem with that is in that formation if you do that then you're giving Rome a free release for a slant/post to the back end of the endzone wide open.
I can go pull any number of these types of plays and highlight that Washington's run game is a supplement to the pass game and looks to attack in favorable numbers.
The other area where these type of plays are going to cause problems is that the consensus way to slow Penix down is to blitz through the G-C-G gaps and put pressure in his face and try to take advantage of his release point being relatively lower than it should be. If you're showing a middle blitz, then it's also creating opportunities for the UW offense to outflank on the edge with numbers.
It's an offense that is going to consistently cause problems in that they'll more often than not get you to declare what you're trying to take away and what you're giving up ... when they are operating at their top end it's taking the easy plays and operating very efficiently.
