Game Thread: Alamo Bowl: Texas vs. Oregon

[yourTEAMreallySUCKS]

What game are you watching? Three absolutely dropped passes

One was major, the other two not so much. With that said, dropped passes are never acceptable.

I am watching Case throw behind an open Shipley for a pick 6
I am watching McCoy miss two open receivers on deep routes that might have been TDs.


Sure the 3 inexpicable drops are not helping his confidence on the short routes.
But his medium/deep throws are woefully inaccurate.

Wish that would have been the case when you beat us this year

Don't you think McCoy's receivers could be better at catching the football?

Well if he actually threw to WR's instead of 6th OL named Swaim maybe you would have a point. Swaim is not a pass catcher. He is a mauler in the run game though. He is out there for one reason and McCoy should realize that. I can't remember Swaim having a pass thrown his way all year. Might have, but I can't remember it.

Actually Case left 11 points on the field with pitifully inaccurate passes to completely wide open WRs in the first half of RRSO.

Lets see if the Texas coaching staff is smart enough to run the ball, keeping the ball out of the hands of that quick-striking Duck offense.

SPOILER ALERT








they're not

His RS was burned when Ash went down earlier this year.

How many games has he played in this year?

Wow.

To not play Swoopes this year, and at the same time burn a RS..., damn.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Apparently SWAIM is the second coming of Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham tonight.


That is the only reason I can find for throwing it to him so many times.....


He is a blocking TE and essentially another offensive lineman.

Who was going to be the backup, brainiac?

When an eligible receiver is open for two first downs, you throw to him. What are you dunces arguing?

Here comes the nail..

You have more than 3 QBs on scholarship at Texas, right?

And if not, at least some slap that has walked on that can take snaps, right?

Or is your coaching staff that incredibly smart to be put into that situation?

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

They had no choice. They did not have a backup quarterback at the time.


And if Swopes really is the second coming, he is not sticking around more than 3 years anyhow.

Mack, finish with this:

Yep, if they can't stall this drive, it may well be over.

Looks like Texas may have some hope after all - held them to three.

'Horns D is hanging around at least.

Yes. At Texas we put in lesser scholarship QBs and walk ons as main backups.

Gawd you dunces must not be able to hear yourselves.

The defense is fine for Texas....offense seems to be their Achilles heel
