Where is our pass rush?

[Dirtybucks90]

Robinson is having all day. No sacks and not being hurried. I thought our D-line over matched their O-line

The OSU line is pretty good. Wait for the adjustments, Muschamp will figure out a way to get to him.

Cheers!! glug glug

Ou's oline had all the pub but OSU has the real deal when it comes to the oline.

 

[ProdigalHorn]

Their line's doing a great job so far.

 

[GHoward]

Haven't really been blitzing. Plus he is more mobile than OU's and Miizouri's QB. Although one he escapes the pocket he hasn't really done much.

 

[Scipio Tex]

We're playing run and contain.

Also, Okung is the best LT in the league.

 

[TexanWolv]

I have to imagine we'll blitz more in the second half. DLine is not getting to Robinson very quickly at all. But really....everything I say is done under the fact that OSU is getting the ball with ridiculous field position.

 

[Horn2BWild]

5 minutes left in the game & we're still waiting on tose adjustments! They do not exist!

 

[Bigtex112]

The Oline that we see in Lubbock next week is better than OSU's.

 

[Bighank77]

5 sacks and 8 QB hurries. Not bad against a very good O-line.

It's a work in progress. Coach Champ is in his first season of a long stay at Texas!, building a legendary defense that will carry over for years to come.

I was more concerned how they blew us off the line of scrimmage most of the day. The running back is way too good to not get some penetration. Roy Miller only had 2 tackles and I don't remember him getting any pressure all day.

 

[everybodygodeep]

Most of the runs were outside - not up the middle. We didn't get off of blocks the way we should have and our tackling was aweful.

There never was an intention by Muschamp to blitz and play to a strength of Robinson. They relied on the front four to get through the blatant and copious holds of their O line to get pressure. They mixed blitz in sometimes but it was never something to be used a lot.

This was covered on the radio yesterday and alluded to in other places. I am tired of hearing the catch phrase "High Octane Offense".

 

[EasTexBevo]

It looked to me like they were playing nickel and only rushing 4 the whole game. I don't hardly remember any blitzes, and it looked like only 2 linebackers on the field the whole game. It looked like the strategy was to contain Dez Bryant and take their chances elsewhere.

 

[l00p]

In a post game radio interview Muschamp said what the above poster said about Dez and the plan to contain him.

 

[Chop]

Did anyone else notice that we got good pressure, and even a sack or two, against TCU when we ran a basic loop around stunt with Ossai. The DT would jam into the G and T on that side, and Ossai would loop around him and rush up the middle--beating a slow and confused C, or come in not blocked at all. This is just basic DL stunting, but it works well with super-fast Ossai. This is also a stunt that has often given our OL fits over the past 10 or more years. I hope we see a lot more of this--when we're on defense that is...

Nice 12-year-old thread pull. We had a pretty good pass rush with Kindle and Houston.

+ Orapko. Gave Bradford fits.

I was going to post a lengthy and thorough analysis on our pass rush but I keep getting distracted by HighPlainsBevo's avatar...
