Deserves Own Thread

"So, we're worried about wearing Gaskin out in important games, but when we're up 45, we run him every fucking play? Jesus."
Gaskin gets a season high of 23 carries when the season is over against a team that lost every Pac 12 game except one (to Colorado) by 15 or more points.
Yes I do bitch about everything, but if you can't see the problem with this, I can't help you.

But how is Petersen a complete fucktard?
-
yeah I'm befuddled
-
As I said in the game thread, Petersen wants Gaskin to get over 1000 yards this year

We saw the same thing with Sarkisian. He made mind-numbing play calls all year and then called intelligent games at the end of the season. I wouldn't be surprised if in both cases we've witnessed an attempt to confuse the opposing defenses by doing stupid shit all year so there is no precedent for when we do things that make sense at the end.

In Sark's case he was hitting form for the holidays and was more fucked up each progressive game.Mad_Son said:We saw the same thing with Sarkisian.

I didn't go through the game thread as I watched the game late last night on my DVR, but I was baffled by the number of times Gaskin would run for 8 on first down and then we'd throw a bubble for -3 or take a sack on 2nd and set up all those 3rd and 4+ downs... baffling. run the fucking ball smith!

Hi. As a play caller you don't want to get your important players hurt when you are up big.
So, if you're starting tail back isn't important you run him a ton so you don't get your QB and WR's hurt. -
I see your point, and I agree.RoadDawg55 said:From @Dennis_DeYoung in the game thread:

But one factor here was DWarsh's unavailability. -
I only watched about 30% of the game. It was already 21-0 when I tuned in and I knew it was over. I did some errands that ran way past halftime and since the SIO, I barely gave a fuck anyway..cool story Bill...
Generally...you're going to run a lot when you're ahead about 17 touchdowns...to run out the clock and avoid injuries. I get the complaint is, "Why didn't he run more in earlier games?" I totally agree. He should have. Maybe Peterman should have run Cooper or whoever is third string more in this game. I don't know if Washington played or not.
This board likes to complain about 52-7 wins though. It's what it does... -
The complaint is not about a 52-7 win. It's about under-utilizing Gaskin throughout the whole season. HTHFire_Marshall_Bill said:I only watched about 30% of the game.

On first down, Gaskin ran for 6, 7, 8, 9, 3, 3, 5, 4, 2, 1.
So he ran for 8 or more yards on 1st down 2 times. I guess some people are easily baffled.
-
We ran 45 offensive plays in the first half. Gaskin ran on 19 of those plays. Seems reasonable. In the 2nd half, Gaskin ran the ball 4 times, and was pulled with more than 10 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter. Again, seems reasonable.
This is bitching for the sake of bitching. But what's new. -

Right. That's why I wrote, "i get the complaint is about..." I could have worded it better, but it's a stupid fucking message board so who cares?PurpleBaze said:

It still seems like nitpicking in the context of a 45 point win. People were also bitching that this win meant Smith would be back next year in the game thread. Look, I wasn't thrilled with the win either, since it doesn't mean a ton, but my first thought wasn't, "GOD DAMNIT, WE PUT THE GAME AWAY BY 11 MINUTES TO GO IN THE 2ND FUCKING QUARTER. THIS MEANS SMITH WILL BE BACK!!! AHHHHHH!!! MOM, WHERE THE HELL ARE MY CHEETOS AND YOHOO?!!!?" -
This definitely did not deserve its own thread. Some of these threads are as dumb as the ones on Dawgman like "Why does Jake Browning clap his hands?"
I feel dumber just for reading this thread. Fuck. -
It did. Someone in the game thread bitched that posters were complaining when up 17-0 against ASU. The ones bitching ended up being right. It's a bigger picture thing. You can disagree. I think it's more likely you miss the point and are fixated over a 52-7 win over a hapless team.Fecal_Matter said:This definitely did not deserve its own thread.

Nobody except you and HuskyAZ gives a shit about plungering Oregon State. They suck. There is a reason they haven't won a PAC 12 game. -
I lurked for a few days. I know, nobody noticed or cared, but this place isn't what it was when it started to get going. I've gone into it before, no need to beat a dead horse.Fecal_Matter said:

Roaddawg's a good poster though. I just don't agree with him on certain things. -
As predicted a big win over the worst team in America and the doogs are back baby!
Just pretend this isn't a carbon copy of Sark. -
YRYK... too many threads. I'm going to go bump up the Keeley thread. Thanks for the reminder.Fecal_Matter said:This definitely did not deserve its own thread. Some of these threads are as dumb as the ones on Dawgman like "Why does Jake Browning clap his hands?"

I had something very important to say and then the booze hit me. Fuck I might be out before the seacocks lose to the niners

May as well pass out in the next hour or two. That's another meaningless game not worth watching.phineas said:I had something very important to say and then the booze hit me. Fuck I might be out before the seacocks lose to the niners

This (x) a lot: If you were concerned about Gaskin and the workload, you could have sat him w/ 10 minutes in the 2nd and saved 10 carries.RoadDawg55 said:

This is twice in 2015 that offensive coaches have determined they weren't "stubborn" enough after losses with the run (Cal/ASU) and came back the next week with the agenda they were going to stick with it (SC/Beavs). I will give them benefit of the doubt after Cal, but not with the ASU game.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the scrimmage/win. But my main thought this am was after seeing once again how average in general the Pac-12 is, how is it we need a win vs. the Cougars to be bowl eligible? and double that when you consider our defense is holding teams under 20 when cfb looks like the outdoor version of arena football.

Sure I give a shit about plungering a shitty OSU team. It's what we should do. I'm just not on the bitch, whine, moan bandwagon about what happened last week, last month, last year, the past 15 years. We met expectations yesterday, yet you can't or won't acknowledge it as evidenced by your posts in the game thread and afterward.RoadDawg55 said:

The team looked great yesterday. Execution and playcalling (other than the Mickens pass) were great in all 3 facets of the game. I'm happy. I don't GAF if Gaskin gets 18 carries or 23 carries. And I don't GAF if the entire team congratulates Browning after a TD. Go read the game thread and see what dumbfucks you and your ilk are. You think it's funny. It's actually pathetic.
Last weekend, I got to witness the 2nd half meltdown in Tempe. I wasn't happy at all. If we lay a turd on Friday, I won't be happy. See how that works?
The only thing that makes sense to me is that you are one depressed mother fucker. Take a walk with your significant other and get some perspective. -
Not at all depressed, but if I wanted to take a walk on the beach I could. I wouldn't have to get on an airplane.HuskyInAZ said:

I'll own up to being wrong on this.... because it was late, I only watched the first 4 times it happened (the 6, 7, 8, 9 yard runs that left us with 2nd and short only to go to a bubble screen for loss or try to go downfield and get sacked instead of sticking with the run. I had no idea that Smith figured it out eventually.HuskyInAZ said:
