Horns vs Bears thread

Man...that 3rd down play call right there.
S M H

You trusted Thompson to drop back for a pass there? He’s a mess right now. I think he hurt his hand on a run to the left about 15 minutes ago, and has thrown wobbly passes ever since. Then, got blasted a few times since then, too.

 

[Monahorns]

yep. And “talent” is both a snapshot in time while in high school based on other HS players, and a fleeting aspect if not continuously improved. Today, Baylor has better players on the field, recruiting stars be dammed.

That is correct but it speaks to the athletic potential of the players. It is the staff's job to realize that potential. But instead our players get worse.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

How are we the only team on the planet that can’t improve after a dozen years?

 

[militaryhorn]

Well, same story as last week

 

[Handler]

That's the third time we've handed off up the middle on 3rd and 5-6, and none of them have worked.

It's been that way since TCU, If Sark doesn't trust Casey, he needs to make a change.

 

[caryhorn]

Not able to stop the run?!? SMH

 

[Monahorns]

How can anyone say that this team doesn't quit when they get the ball run down their throats every game? Weak tackling. Getting blocked.

Once they get down their effort level goes to crap.

 

[havoc7701]

Glimmer of hope with that Baylor miscue.

 

[txhorn_et]

Chaka Khan Would’ve done just as good a job!!

 

[Pomspoms]

Alright this is our opportunity

I was talking about the 3rd and 4 run up the gut when we needed a TD drive

 

[militaryhorn]

Perfect setup for Baylor, 3rd and long which in pivotal moments is our Achilles heel.

 

[VYFan]

I forgot. "We're all truly blessed". Even in a crushing defeat where we blow a 3 score lead in the 4th

I see the same meltdown you see. I think it’s the players, not the staff that was hired in the spring of 2021.

 

[Duck Dodgers]

Let me ask you a question, Duck.
Baylor was 2-7 last year.
DO YOU think they magically obtained a massive amount of new talent in one year??

Who’s winning? Who is dominating the line of scrimmage? Texas fans always think Texas players are theses super talented players who are always being held back by stupid coaches, when the results are the field don’t show that.

Yes. Did you even watch the rest of the drive leading up to that play? If you think he can't hit a 5-7 yard pass to the point where we needed to run up the middle (which hasnt worked all game, while our passing game has been more effective) on 3rd and medium, then you aren't judging objectively.

Yes, same. I think the staff doesn’t trust Casey, maybe because he is hurt or rattled

 

[havoc7701]

OK D did their job.

 

[dukesteer]

Might be poor player development.

 

[militaryhorn]

Wow, we actually have a chance to tie the game.

 

[BALL IS LIFE]

IF and I say IF we score we gotta go for 2!

 

[Statalyzer]

I see the same meltdown you see. I think it’s the players, not the staff that was hired in the spring of 2021.

Why did the players take steps backwards in the past year while Baylor's got better?

Or was Tom actually a genius to manage to get to 7-3 with this mediocre bunch?

 

[militaryhorn]

IF and I say IF we score we gotta go for 2!

Absolutely not, need to take it to OT.

 

[Handler]

BU last 4 recruiting classes rankings since 2018: 32, 34, 60, 56

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Let's go casey.. would love to see the kid pull one out

 

[Handler]

alright Casey, go win it!

 

[Pomspoms]

Thompson should have spread it out to the left and then pitch it to Robinson

 

[dukesteer]

Chance to switch the season…

 

[VYFan]

Yes. Did you even watch the rest of the drive leading up to that play? If you think he can't hit a 5-7 yard pass to the point where we needed to run up the middle (which hasnt worked all game, while our passing game has been more effective) on 3rd and medium, then you aren't judging objectively.

Well, I was still watching
Probably Sark thought it was 4 down territory if Bijan got close, but when the line couldn’t even support that, he decided to take the 3

 

[militaryhorn]

Good grief
