You'll like Cole Cubelic's comments on Missouri win

Post by jcgmoi »

He closes with "Good win", a take that will surprise some posters.

"RBs are hammers" was accurate and descriptive.

Not sure what this remark about the OL means: "LOVE how they take free grass." Free grass? Maybe stretch to get to LBs?

Players referenced by numbers so know your team or have a roster at hand.

Free grass just means taking what’s open, mainly referring to Pribula not forcing passes and taking openings in the D, and good job by our receivers to find the open grass

Pretty good assessment. He contradicted himself a little saying we were good in pass protection, but then he said this:

“Couple breakdowns in pass pro. LT had some struggles.”

That’s what most fans saw and Pribula under duress much of the time. Remarkable he was as accurate as he was.

We need the O Line to focus and be assignment sound blocking in pass protection or that’ll open the door for a defense to give us some fits and get our QB hurt.

Didn’t say anything negative about the secondary, so that’s encouraging. Although it was UMass and their QB was ready to catch the flight out of CoMO as quickly as possible after the game. Bama could pose actual problems.

He's not contradicting himself. It's just confusing to you, because you're the exact opposite.

He's focusing on the 95% and adding a comment about the 5% that wasn't perfect.

Against UMass we allowed 4 sacks and 6 TFL. Total pass attempts - 29. Assuming a couple of the TFL’s were on running attempts (helping you out with your percentages), our protection success % was probably more like 65-70% - against UMASS. Not 95%.

True fans who want us to win a championship want that to improve, for success and to keep our QB out of the hospital. You are either not really a fan, or you’re that stupid.

You. Do. Not. Know. Sports.

Pet Talk Buddy, I’m telling you that’s the forum you should spend your time on. Or maybe cooking, or movies. Just not sports.

I'm copying this from the other thread. The line did not grade out at 95%. Check this out.

The PFF grades for the UMass game are in for the OLine. Far from great.

Richardson 55.4 and allowed 2 sacks and 5 pressures.
Giudice 61.8
Tollison 59.2 and not having a good year.
Peagler 57.0 and allowed 1 sack. Maybe Wilson should start?
Trost 66.4 and looks to be the best of the bunch so far.

Hurry back, Cayden Green.

And this tells you a lot about how great the running backs are. The blocking is not all that.

BTW, Davis got a PFF grade of 95.2 running behind the backups on the line. Hardy graded out at 87.6, and Roberts at 72.4.

It's more like 88% and Pribula was 26-29.

True fans are enjoying the journey and are not panicking just to be heard.

Armchair is focused on if and when the other shoe will drop.

Ok you’re going back on ignore, you are way to obnoxious, or ignorant, or just plain stupid to educate.

Bad faith effort there buddy, you deleted the TFL’s conveniently…. But 4 sacks vs UMASS stands on its own merit for being a bad day for our O Line.

You’ll get no more responses from me. You’re hopeless.

Needed to give more snaps to Wilson at center and Williams at LT. collison is still not back to preinjury form and hasn't been very good. Wilson is better rg now than starter. IMO

need to have ready outlet for Beau as he still has trouble with not knowing where to go in collapsing pocket. Roberts is a willing blocker and does slip out for dump pass well.

can't wait for Vandy Bama game. Pavia is trash talking going into Tide stadium. Last one to do that whipped Bama pretty good and backed it up. Vandy plays a lot like MU with solid running game and very good QB. Bama doesn't have very good pass rush so this could be a shootout as bama's QB is very good as well but they havn't run it much. definitely take vandy and the points.
