Give Jay some run Coach.

I love Lanning and Dilly but my god let Butters have a chance! TT is Terrible!!! Just let’s the air out of our offense when he comes in

I agree about Ty but the air was already out of the offense when Ty went in.

The Thompson experiment is done. (TBF, there’s no reason he should have thrown a pass against this Zona defense)

Yea hopefully people will shut up about him but Yogi Roth says he is convinced Ty will be the man after Bo Nix lol

TT gets the ball, immediately looks at his primary and throws it. The defense knows it. Should have been 6 the other way last series. Hope it doesn’t happen this time?

Give the RB’s some run against the 125th rank rushing defense

And I will be the first to admit, I HATED the NIX transfer, but, seriously with this dude? He is full on beast mode. Never saw that coming.

Yep. I had this marked as "If we're going to see bad Nix, it's going to happen in Tucson." He's not flawless, but the list of college quarterbacks playing better than him is a very, very short list. Playing so much better than he did the last couple years at Auburn, so kudos to him, Dillingham, and our offensive line.

[Duck07]

We did what we needed to do in this game.

Time for Lanning and Dillingham to go back to the laboratory and come up with a few tweaks/plays to show UCLA and Chip when they visit. Probably going to be a 4PM time-slot and a possible Game-Day location.

It's been nice having so many easy 2nd halves that get the reserves a lot of game experience. That's something Cristobal didn't think of when he kept games a lot closer than they needed to be.

Crystal Balls-Think? Oxymoron

Great game for a change in the desert. I hope they have us as underdogs i the fUCLA game.

I still believe in the development of players, and still think TT could develop into a top level QB. But, and this is just my opinion, there is some work that he needs. Think about Dennis Dixon from his Jr to Sr year and the amount of improvements that were made.

I went back and looked at 4 high school tapes of TT and his spring game performance, and to me these would be the main issues. (Again, this my opinion only). 1. Most of his better throws was when the pocket was moving…hence, less thought and more instinct. I think he is having to learn an offense that is somewhat foreign to him and that takes time. It’s seems like, he is uncomfortable with sustained time in the pocket and I never watched him actually climb the pocket, just start running if it wasn’t there. 2. His release for short to intermediate throws is slow and it has a long wind up to it…telegraphing throws combined with a slow release will always be problematic at the college level and that is a huge area of emphasis that he could develop. 3. Looking in receivers…it is strange that in high high school and even this last spring game, he would go through progressions quite a lot, but game time this year he locks in on his #1 and doesn’t got through progressions. I think that may be a game speed issue for him and his ability to slow the game down may not be there. 4. Comfortability in this offense. He seems like a smart kid, so he should be able to learn this offense, but it does appear that he is currently struggling.

If he does fix, those four main issues, I do see a sizable upside for him. He has prototypical size, good mobility and a 155mm howitzer for an arm.

But what the heck do I know, I could be completely wrong and off my rocker…I mean I did get hit in the head a lot. But coaches seem to think he has potential to put him 2nd string, and I would hope they are right.

Being completely honest, there wasn't anything done differently from Dennis. He spent the summer playing baseball because he thought he didn't have a future in football. That change was entirely on Chip's offense and what a Coach who knows his stuff can do.

Was at the game so didn’t see good replay…was the Manning targeting anything close to targeting?

100% targeting. No one likes it, but right call.

[Quietduck]

75% Targeting, but the right call. He was trying to hit with his pads but his head was down and the receiver's momentum moved his head into the path of Mannings's head.
