Bad throw to say the least.


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - lex24 - 08-30-2024

Not a smart throw.


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - martyup - 08-30-2024

Nice D right there.  Held them to a FG.

Tristan Sinclair playing well at LB


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - martyup - 08-30-2024

We really need to score before the half.  Critical if we want to win this game.

I am going to say it: the defense may not be great to watch between the 20's, but goal line and when the opposing offense is backed up, the defense has been really good. A terrible no call on TCU's touchdown and a bad QB play not helping the defense, and the defense could be pitching a shutout.

AGREE.  And, Collin Wright playing well on their star, #3 Williams.

Stanford D: holding TCU to 26y rushing on 9 carries. Sub 3y.
Stanford O: 92y rushing on 22 carries. 4.2y per

Involve Elic more!  He's one of the best athletes on the field.  What about Tiger?

Yes agree
But Wright needs help on Williams
Seems getting it sometimes

Coach TT heard you
But didn’t hear a TD request


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - ADPinWDC - 08-30-2024

Confident FG... up 17-10, under 2m left in first half.  
What is wrong with that?  Nuthin.  For the 10-point HomeDog


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - martyup - 08-30-2024

Would have preferred a TD there, obviously, but scoring on that drive was crucial.  It's also crucial to stop TCU on this drive.


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - SkiBum80 - 08-30-2024

Wow!
They fumble away a nearly sure TD!


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - martyup - 08-30-2024

Turnover!

RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - ADPinWDC - 08-30-2024

OH, YES -- TCU fumbles inside the 5.   GIVE ME SOME!

It was a gift, but previous Stanford defenses may have not capitalized.

Coach Taylor has to be thrilled after the expectations we would get dominated in this game and last year's record.

One thing that the DL is doing so well in the red zone that helped contribute to that turnover at least partially, the DL are occupying blockers so well. They are clogging up the middle and forcing the QB to improvise/scramble.


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - cardcrimson - 08-30-2024

Did I miss a couple of pass interference rule changes? WR can now push off and DBs can now tackle while the ball is in the air?


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - ADPinWDC - 08-30-2024

Dykes is going to be pissed in the locker room, and they get the ball to start second half. 
TCU knows Hoover can pass at will:  Williams, Richardson, that last toss to TE Bech.  
Hoover is 18 for 22 and 209 yards.   EEESH.   We are stopping the run surprisingly, but can't get pressure on QB.  
They are going to go wild with Williams now.  May need to double team, as others noted.  He is NFL talent.  

We are only really in this with the two KEY TURNOVERS.


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - SkiBum80 - 08-30-2024

Wish I could be a fly on the wall to hear Coach TT at the half
Yes awesome we’re up
But not really cause we outplaying them
As much cause their dumb mistakes
Cannot count on their mistakes continuing to carry us through
Had only a couple good RB runs in first half
Hope see more 2nd half
OLine usually giving Daniels decent pass protect, try some more ~10 yard routes?


RE: FB -- TCU Game Thread - martyup - 08-30-2024

It really pissed me off to see the panel on College Game Day laughing at Stanford and picking TCU to beat us easily.  I'm pissed that Shaw ran this once feared program into the ground to the extent that we are picked to finish last in the ACC.  THE ACC!!

I hope our players are also pissed.  We need them to be angry nerds and start kicking some ass again with intellectual brutality.

And a ton of 15 yard penalties that prolonged our first drive leading to 7. But Stanford of the last three years, being totally frank, wouldn't have capitalized. This team did, and that is a positive so far.

I think with the bend but don't break defense, much as this team as a whole, realistically we have to walk before we can run. Let's end the bowl drought and focus on good rather than expecting great.
