What I would have done is take the 10 seconds off and then line up and then call a timeout. Would have taken the refs an hour to figure out that one.
I think in that scenario his starting left guard would have had to sit out a play. He judged that it was more likely we’d convert the 3rd down and seal the game with Barber in.
More than just the timeout...If SOS was coaching that game, we RUTS... Napier on game day is TURRIBLE!
Manning will probably be pretty good next year. I'm glad to see Lagway have some success and gain some confidence back but I fear he may not be fully healthy at anytime this year.
If that was his thinking, then he is dumber than i thought and that is almost impossible. He has ZERO idea how to manage the game and the clock with a lead...
That’s a terrible calculation then. Having the second stringer in is worth 40 seconds and it’s not even a question. And, of course, we didn’t even come close to converting.
Love the team effort today. This team is stacked. It’s talented. But there’s no denying what, or I should say, WHO…the problem is. We should be 5-0 right now, 4-1 at worst.
That would work if we looked like we were going to make that 3rd down but Texas knew what we doing and stacked the line. They stuffed our last 5 runs including a 2 yard loss on that 3rd down. We were never going to seal the game with that gameplan.
