bottomwriter Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) So much for Sutton not being a good coach- HC never figured out how to deal with Ridgeway's version of the wide tackle six- shutout to Murray State/Va. Tech coach Frank Beamer. Also curious as to why 3 didn't didn't line up in the wildcat as he had done in the previous 8 games.

I thought I did see #3 in the wildcat a couple of times, although my eyes might've deceived me as 3 and 8 are easy to mix up with our jersey font. As for Ridgeway and their 6-down front, all due credit, but I thought we were simply too conservative last night. 4 completions on 6 passing attempts for 54 yards. 9 yards/attempt is pretty dang good, and a big chunk of that came on the last drive. I get the importance of establishing the run, but I wish they'd trust this QB a little more. If they have much hope of getting to Cookeville, they're likely gonna need his arm at some point.

Yes #3 lined up at least two or three times in the wildcat. I'm pretty sure I know why they didn't use the QB much last night but I cannot go into detail on here!

gr8tn08 Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 I am pretty sure that #3 was in the wildcat a couple of times. Our play calling was close to the vest for some reason. It may have been due to weather or not wanting to show much. But it is the playoffs and everything should be available to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr8tn08 Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 Yeah, I think I know from what I have heard. I think our punter bailed us out a couple times in the second half by flipping the field and then our defense kept them bottled up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been saying that all season. There’s going to come a time where he has to win a game for us at some point. That third and long throw was pretty clutch to keep the drive going.

When it comes down to it I trust this defense with everything to make a stop or get a turnover! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played no part in why they didn’t throw. I think it was more about their defensive scheme and not being sure we could block a six man front. Several times they had 9-10 in the box last night, at some point you have to take a few shots and hope you can beat man coverage. Or at least get them out of it. I trust our coaching staff though, and have no doubt they will figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One in particular u don't want to be throwing towards. He will pick u off and be headed the other direction!
