dabidv- so the coach is to blame for players making dumb mistakes? Glad I am not a coach.

Re: UCF game thread - dabigv13 - 09-12-2015

Uhhhh.....yes? Particularly if it happens regularly.

Well, good teams seem to make many fewer dumb mistakes than bad ones. This doesn't seem unreasonable at all. A game or two, sure. But we had hulk last year explaining to us that as soon as we got these dumb plays cleaned up, we'd be great.

At a certain point, there are too many dumb mistakes and you've got to figure out whether another approach would produce fewer. Whether that's keeping a similar scheme and installing a new offensive staff, or changing scheme and installing a new offensive staff, or whatever on the vast menu of options available to a head coach, Shaw has to pick something, because what's going on isn't cutting it. This isn't a young offense.

The head coach is responsible for getting his team to execute.  But usually it falls on the coordinators to get the units to execute. The defense is well-coached.  Clearly.  The offense, not so much.

Re: UCF game thread - dabigv13 - 09-12-2015

All of the possible excuses our team had last week, are gone this week. We're playing at home, at the most advantageous time for a west coast team playing an east coast team, against a team that lost to FIU, against a team that is not putting any pressure on us with their own offense.

And our offense looks f*cking terrible.

Re: UCF game thread - washingtonismoney - 09-12-2015

Let's take that mistake by Meeks. A bad one. But he's playing his second game in his college career. No beef with Akina or Anderson there.

Your veteran, highly-recruited OL doing the same? Repeatedly? That's a problem for someone higher up the food chain.

Does Shaw deserve any of the blame for how awful we have looked to start the season?

Re: UCF game thread - OutsiderFan - 09-12-2015

Wow. Shittu now out of game.

Re: UCF game thread - dabigv13 - 09-12-2015

DoesAnnan play? This is the scenario I was predicting....

Re: UCF game thread - OutsiderFan - 09-12-2015

Irwin!

Re: UCF game thread - Mick - 09-12-2015

If I had made those mistakes in any level of play I would have been benched. So DAV should we bench the starters.

Re: UCF game thread - rudruff - 09-12-2015

Mad Bum 4 outs from a perfect game.

Channel jumping about to start.


Whups. My fault.


Re: UCF game thread - Mick - 09-12-2015

Forget about the virtual reality helmet.  We need the Chemistry department to come up with another version of stickum.

Rudruff.  Dude.  Melvin Upton was 0 for 10 lifetime against madbum until he just broke up that perfect game.  I'll trade it for a td here though.

Re: UCF game thread - SUBuddha - 09-12-2015

so was that a poor call by Shaw on the 4th and 1 or on that punt?  What is the call by the brain trust?

Re: UCF game thread - jacketree - 09-12-2015

Nah, my fault. Just texted kid about the impending perfecto. Upton's base hit came right after spectacular defense from backup SS.

Oregon driving on Sparty's down 3 with 90 seconds left. Adams missed wide open Marshal for go ahead TD. Really miss Mariota. Down to 4th and 16. 

Re: UCF game thread - jacketree - 09-12-2015

Nope. Sparty can run clock out. Draymond looks happy.

Re: UCF game thread - OutsiderFan - 09-12-2015

If Stanford was shutout at home against UCF, would Shaw fire himself as OC?

Re: UCF game thread - Cardinal96 - 09-12-2015

I am trying to find things to be positive about.  Our defense has been solid so far.  That is about all I can think of.  The UCF backup QB is out-playing Hogan.  I would like to see a Chryst package one of these series.
