What if our Kicker misses his 4rth of the night. Then what an idiot for putting it back on his leg. Our kicker was Ice cold, and I kept thinking he was going to miss an xp to lose the game for us.

beware the habu
I wouldn't have been upset if they tried the fg in 2ot. Could have boosted the kickers confidence going forward, and the message to the D would be certain - keep 'em out of the end zone.
Is it possible that MM thot the defense was gassed at that point, so going for the td was the best option?

as a RB you see that and bounce it outside and try to race them to the corner, thus why Lindsey is in there (fast). He just keeps trying to run in there, ???

I don't mind going for it or trying to run four times.....don't we have to just start whipping somebody at the line of scrimmage at some point to get this thing turned around?
The crazy thing to me is there were maybe 3 more passing TD's out there that the WR mistimed their route or sefo was just a bit off.

Time to change it up. Give the ball to Sefo. Spread them out.

Somebody is killing themselves over this, if true.
So the "miscommunication" messaging we got wasn't just having TJ's back to avoid throwing him under the bus on what was otherwise an excellent game by him. Actually was a miscommunication.

massive tool
TOJO plenty embarrassed: he went the wrong way. He goes the right way and he walks in untouched and Lindgren is a genius here.
BUT....never should have come to that: Oliver 0-3 and even on the 3rd down plays preceding two of those tries, Powell and Adkins each dropped screen passes that hit them right in the hands, with nothing but space ahead of them. Adkins would likely have scored; Powell would have had at least a 1st down.

It was a painful error regardless of origin, but I am sure they are all taking stock of what they each could have done to put that game away. A tackle, a kick, a catch, a block.... As good as they played, and there were a bunch of great efforts, they left a ton of plays on the field.
Gonna be an angry bunch of Buffaloes come out Saturday!
If Buffs channel that emotion and keep assignments under control on Saturday, we are gonna get after OSU. I am specifically looking for Tuopu to have a huge game. Just a hunch. I expect the defense overall to respond Sat as a unit.

That's the crazy thing. It wasn't like we were "close" because we caught a bunch of breaks. It wasn't even like we were "close" because anyone was making big plays outside of the play design. In most ways, the team was just playing hard and executing but had some brainfarts and missed opportunities that cost them a win they should have had.
No doubt. Hell, 10 different plays could have put us over the top in that game. Frick. Mistakes were obvious and painful.
But, when is the last time we expected to go head to head with a pretty good team like OSU? I am jacked up about this upcoming game, and the future of Buff football. :nod:
Felt like we were not dominated yet in the PAC12 and could have won both games. But we are 0-2 due to sloppy play and lack of depth. I hope this team took no moral victory for losing a game they should have won. I hope it's the opposite.
And I'm not pissed at our OC and I doubt 'Nik is either. In hindsight, he played the percentages trying to run it up the gut knowing it was 4 down territory and he had the ace up his sleeve, setting them up for the counter-toss sweep or whatever they call it, if he really needed.
The next step is these guys need to expect to win and they will act like they've seen it before.
This is the problem with threads posted in the immediate aftermath of a loss getting bumped for 2 1/2 days that follow. Of course I'm not still pissed at Lindgren. In the moment... I was. Still frustrated, but not pissed. Glad I titled it "right now". :smile2:

Time for this team to put a more consistent 60 minutes together-The defense needs to and will respond to giving up 60 points, but just as big a variable is whether or not the offense can keep up their momentum. If we see the same offense that couldn't move the ball on Hawaii in the 2nd half, we're gonna get whipped.
I hope he stays awhile, just fix the short yardage ****.
Seriously?
Run that play already, fake the quick dive and pitch it, get the edge. It'll work. It's a reverse pivot type play meaning the dive is opposite of the pitch.
