    Nice link, but you still have a coach who persists in using a QB that eliminates any chance of you capitalizing on your window of opportunity to do something.
    People forget that Peterman bungled the clock in the same way a few years ago at Arizona.
    But he learned from it maybe. I have low odds on Cristoball being functionally capable of learning.
    On the other hand, when Peterman made that mistake, he had already been a head coach since b4 whitey was hunting Geronimo in the mountains of New Mexico. Mario's head-coaching experience consists of trying to make chicken salad out of chicken shit at FIU. Of all the many things I've ever read about crystal balls, stupid is not one of them. And, if you turn your head for five seconds, he'll fuck your wife. The guy still has those swarthy Cuban good looks. And you know it @Swaye !!!

    Seven stages of grief when you realize Mario Cristobal is your head coach

    So handing the ball off to a running back in short yardage to kill the clock is clock miss management? You with OBK on this?

    How the mighty have fallen.

    I haven't seen anything to be upset about with him as the head coach. I haven't disagreed with anything he has done four games in. Yesterday was 100% player error. Snapping the ball and not fumbling are player issues.

    The recruiting it there, the S&C is there, the penalties are under control, and game management has been good.

    It's not like he is in year five praying to Allah to hold off ASU at home. JFC, that's a fate worse than death.

    You should run the ball, but also grab the RB by the nutsack and say two hands on the ball, if it's not there go down and live to play on 3rd and short.

    Taking a knee is playing not to lose. Ask Harbaugh how that went last year.
    2 yards in two plays and you win. You want to build toughness and a culture of winning, you don't take a knee.

    You do need to micro manage the key players thought processes though.

    Jake Browning lives for running backwards in the pocket. All of his hard work at that finally paid off.


    Honest question: Shouldn't all of our? players be tackling and holding the opposing players? Holding doesn't reset the clock so why not just hold the entire play?

    Doesn't sound classy.

    But yes, that's the best strategy to do in that situation.

    That is exactly what I was thinking of. It isn't Nebraska classy, but I was thinking Browning was going to get hit and fumble.

    Oregon could have literally handed the ball off to Standford with 15~ seconds to go in the exact same spot with zero timeouts. Instead they gave it to them in the exact same spot with 1 minute to go and a time out.

    It’s not as if Oregon had played a clean game up to that point handling the ball.

    You can name the one time kneeling the game out didn’t work, I’ll show you the 5 million times it did.

    Herberts first down ended the game.
