Alamo Bowl Game Thread: UT v UW

[Handler]

Would be a tie ballgame if Worthy wasn’t a t-rex

There are no meaningless misunderstandings of good clock management.

 

[Garmel]

Ewers frosh record, cool.

People seem to have an unrealistic expectation for a freshman QB around here.

 

[Statalyzer]

Ewers had played pretty well this game, but both his 2nd and 3rd down passes were 10 feet over everyone's heads there.

There is no such thing as a meaningless win. End of subject. That is the talk of losers. All wins are important.

Meaningful loss?

Possibly so, but also, almost all those types of records are recent everywhere, because of rules and "meta" changes.

Has any freshman but Colt started and finished an entire bowl game in the current era of offense-friendly football?

Better than a pick

Taco, burrito…

That clock management is an example of why you need a “head coach” that oversees the game and not a part time head coach/offensive coordinator/play caller

 

[mchammer]

Was it Worthy that caused Reds tantrum on sideline on prior game? Never heated Who/what the issue was.

Both Cain and Worthy were shitting the bed that day.

I don’t consider Ewers a freshman qb since the regular season ended.

Amen to this

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Pretty embarrassing to hear the play by play guy say about uw head coach "no one could expect this offense to be this good this quick"

Pretty sure those words were never used to describe Sarkisian. Anywhere

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Nice work D

 

[X Misn Tx]

Offense scoring 20. Not on the defense.

 

[Chop]

Look for Worthy deep and Helm down the middle.

 

[Texadelphia]

At least X did t drop the punt. So there’s that.

 

[Chop]

Look for Worthy deep and Helm down the middle.

Maybe RB on a deep wheel

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Wtf??

 

[horninchicago]

Keystone Cops ending.

 

[Texadelphia]

OK - what’s your best 90-yard play? Deep bomb to alligator arms?

 

[horninchicago]

There are no meaningless longest passes of the season to an end a game.

How apropos, finally a deep ball caught.

 

[Horns11]

Herman wouldn't have lost.

 

[Statalyzer]

Washington fans looking across the field saying "Yep, that's what I remember"

 

[theiioftx]

Poor coaching and bad play from Worthy.

 

[HalRex]

We had our opportunities but didn’t make the plays. Hats off to UW, they did mske the plays.

 

[X Misn Tx]

Herman wouldn't have lost.

He's a bowl-er

 

[horninchicago]

Herman wouldn't have lost.

A craptastic enough game and you invoke that POS.

What a lame-assed Alamo Bowl, regardless of the teams playing. Over/under was 67. Teams score 20 pts under that. BIG12 will likely finish with its worse showing ever in a bowl season.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

I'm pretty optimistic about our defense next season, just add a pass rusher or 2. And convince Patterson to stay

Offense? Unless Malik or arch is the real deal we're looking at another 5 loss year
