Are we all in agreement?

Clock management vs going for the kill shot. I believe there’s a way to do both but it feel like Apple Cup, Arizona game, 1st Oregon and the Sigar Bowl all had possessions were UW could’ve run some clock, pick up some yards and then get into possession for the kill shot.

DeBoer and Grubb want what they want though.

Think we have to accept the good with the bad a bit with these guys. They like to go for the jugular even when it ain't exactly prudent to do so. High risk/high reward big swinging donkey dick stuff. Certainly helps keep Ds on their heels and that effect is hard to quantify. It will bite us someday but I can't argue with the results thus far. Despite all that shit, it mostly was the DJ injury timeout and the punt catch interference that gave those cows a chance. Hard to blame coaches there (except taking knees wouldn't get a player hurt but I digress).

The jugular in the Sugar Bowl was making Texas choose whether to use its second timeout with 2:40 remaining or let the field goal be kicked with 2 minutes left. There was no benefit to passing there. Two score advantage whether we get a TD or a field goal. What COULD be accomplished was to bleed clock or force the second timeout.

Coaching malpractice.

Get the fuck over it, dude. Was the clock management bad? Yes. Did we still win? Yes.

If it costs us the natty, we’ll all be losing our shit over it. Until then:

1. Find your wife
2. Find a beach
3. Take a walk
4. Find some perspective
5. Profit

WTF man? We're in a PANDEMIC. Stay home, stay safe.

Don James wasn’t one to fuck up clock management.

I’m still mad.

On the bright side DeBoer won’t do that again.

It wasn’t a one time thing. It’s been on display a lot this season.

Was it that much different than running the clock out vs oregon? Everyone was jacking off to dj getting the first down in that game. They were giving the ball back without a first down and things got cataclysmic real fast.

To me, it was different because DJ was killing Oregon all game. He got shut down by Texas. I had zero confidence we could run for a first down in that situation.

The Sugar Bowl clock fuck up was on the previous possession. Our penultimate possession. We would have ended the game taking a knee but for that.

We also saw clock management malpractice in the Apple Cup and the Arizona game.

Threw to ice the game against OSU. Great call

Missed it vs Texas. Horrible call

Went for it on 4th down in the first half, made it then scored a TD. Great call.

Went for it and got stuffed. Shitty call

Run for 1st down against Oregon ices game. Great call

Run on a play that needs 4 less yards against Texas and Johnson can’t get off the field for the first time all year. Shitty call.

Do I got this right?

Do you understand the difference between calculated risk and recklessness?

Rhetorical question. Obviously.
