Then look at what happens. Typical State!

Yep. They just can't stand prosperity.

Note to Sumlin - this ain't a Big 12 defense

CrimsonForce · Oct 4, 2014

Lol @ A&M trying the power game. That is not in their wheelhouse. Why not kick the field goal though?

colbysullivan · Oct 4, 2014

The receiver caught the ball past the market on 3rd down. Really bad spot.

Good stand up by the defense.

Yep - let's see what Dak Attack can do now. I think that's the moniker they've hung on the young man.

My chiropractor went to State, I can just hear him now if they win.

Awfully early to be going for it on 4th down in a tied game. That's the kind of thing you do if you think points will be hard to come by. Hasn't looked like that will be the case.

I notice with these spread teams like Oregon, Ole Miss (to a degree) and A&M, they refuse to believe their offense can't move the ball. Most of the time this is what bites them in the behind.

Probably figured they'll have about a dozen more chances down there. So they took a shot.

Nope, he was coming back on his own. You don't get forward progress at the point of the catch if you come back from that point on your own.

CrimsonForce · Oct 4, 2014

Both of these secondaries are very beatable..

You do if a defender is making contact. Which he was.

Nice pitch and catch. 1st down State.

Exactly why the barn beat Oregon in the NCG. Oregon would not adapt.

Horrible play call for 3rd and 5.

If the defender stops your forward progress and pushes you back, yes. But the receiver was coming back on his own and his momentum took him back past the first down mark.

CrimsonForce · Oct 4, 2014

State is killing them with the option game. Prescott runs it well..

JBama_in_PCOLA · Oct 4, 2014

Now, three and outs. Strange!

And what's with the going for 2 all the time? I guess next, we'll see onside kicks on every kickoff.
