We can't cover. This looks like me on NCAA Football 2014.

The only incompletions I could ever force on Heisman where when I got pressure.

This is playing out like Iowa st so far. Defense not getting stops.

It's unbelievable. Boneheaded. These coaches cost the players in so many situations this year.

We're better off blitzing him every play and living with the results. At least than we may force mistakes

Last two games against BYU and WVU he threw for 85 yards and 116 yards.

That touchdown tackle was just embarrassing. He had him in the backfield.

Terrible end to the half.

If they score out of halftime (a likelihood at this point), we're going to be chasing them the rest of the afternoon.

I only saw a little, but it looks like the kicker was leveled. I expect us to get another 15 yards.

Never mind. Those penalties should not offset. The officials with a gift for the Pokes.


Unless it's a deadball foul they offset, doesn't matter if one is more severe than the other.

Aranda was absolutely brutal at the pep ralley. Atrocious as a motivator.

Why are defenders acting out putting on seatbelts?
They're sheathing a sword.

But it looks pretty stupid when you do it after making no attempt to find the ball and avoiding a PI call by sheer luck.
no the gesture is clamping a seatbelt...not sheathing a sword.

Some great defensive plays now. Come on Bears, sustain that!!
That was a really nice stop.

If you put pressure on Bowman, he panics.
How did he panic? He didn't throw an INT or fumble it.

He rolled, didn't see anything and threw out of bounds.
He almost refuses to take sacks, so he's really quick to throw the ball away. It's likely a reaction to having his lung punctured at Tech.

If you put pressure on him, their offense will crater.
I guess I'm not seeing enough pressure on him to see what you are talking about.

I'd rather have a QB roll and throw it away vs taking a sack.

Plus, putting pressure on most QB's will cause the offense to falter, so that's not just a Bowman thing.

Time to do some yard work. I've seen this story wayyy to many times.hope to come back in to see we've won. But I don't see it. Here's to hoping.

Gotta agree. On an afternoon that no one can get a stop, you don't use a high percentage play to give them a stop.

How many Oklahoma State games have you watched this year? Or the last two years for that matter? This isn't a one-game thing. It's a career-long trend.

All those breaks and all those OSU penalties and we're tied at the half.
Doc Holliday

We consistently can't execute the fundamentals because this staff had no idea how to develop.

I don't care if we win out, I'm done with Aranda. It's a very low ceiling.
chukronos
How long do you want to ignore this user?
No coaching development either. You MUST call a timeout on 4th down when you are expecting a punt return and there isn't a punter in the backfield. Not calling a timeout there is baffling.

What's with the miniature microphones used during the halftime interviews?

They are so small the girls are having a hard time holding them.

Still expecting Baylor to pull away in the second half.

Will Aranda ever be able to call a defense against a 2 minute offense?

Why not use a timeout on the swinging gate 4th down play. They obviously weren't punting and we were setup for a punt return.

If we can't find a way to win this one in spite of his coaching, and even if we do, he needs to go yesterday.

I dunno man. We had a fumble stop at the 1 and a bunch of penalties against OSU and it's still tied.

If they don't have any turnovers and cut down on their penalties in the 2nd half, we could be on the losing end..

At least Robertson was back out there at the end of the half. He goes out we are screwed.

At the half

BYU 24
UCF 10

TT 17

How can we keep Aranda?? Has to be all about cash.

Homecoming. Not too hot. Stadium barely over half full. He's killing the program.

True. But Collen is getting better. Still he's not good. But ask him he thinks he's great.

Aranda needs to earn his paycheck this half.
