Thats what I think of everytime I hear or read this....

"We had an inside play called initially," he (HOLTZ) said. "We had been having some success up the middle. It wasn't half a yard. It was a yard and a half, a little bit longer. We felt as much as we had gone inside, Coach Fitch mentioned we could get on the perimeter with the Big T, which I thought really was a good idea. As much as we had run quarterback sneaks and fullback bellies and things like that up inside, we didn't execute. We ran right by one defender. Again, I don't think it's as much the play call as the job we did executing the play. They did have the middle of it loaded."

Doesnt matter if they had stuffed teddy bears on the outside. You run FORWARD on 3rd and 1 in opposing territory with 1:30 left needing only a FG to win, 1000000 out of 1000000 times. Even my fiancee who watches football but isnt an armchair coach like we are here knew that. Holy **** sometimes. That would have been fine on the 1st &10 on the next play, but get the first down man!! Pound it in!!

Not to mention at least the ball would have been in the middle of the field.

"Oh yeah lets give Bonani a 40+ yard kick on angle for no reason!!!"

What I see him saying here is... "It's not our fault, we called the right play... The players didn't execute it... It's their fault!!

It gets old to repeat over and over and over each week. These coaches, every one on this staff, suck big time at situational play calling.

At some point, can't these coaches just say "ok guys, we need 1 yard you need to want it more"

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
