What's up ladies and gents?
Well that was an interesting week 1 in my opinion. Few thoughts on the games I watched. Not from a statistical standpoint but opinion perspective. Forgive me if I mess names up or misspell shit.
Disclaimer: This is week 1. I get it. Plus I get player nerves, some teams you value higher than others..got it. Everyone has a hard dick and think they know everything these first few weeks. It's a marathon. Slow your roll. We all want to see you through December. Use good money management.
Ohio State/Indiana: I thought Indiana's pace was great in the first half and they were running great passing curls to the sideline..timing passes...Laglow (Indiana Qb) has a very quick release and the wrs were physical. Entertaining FH. Forced JT to make some bad throws. Couldn't really get feet set..Oline was pushed off the ball except for a few Dobbins runs. (Weber was out with hammy issue) .
After the Lee Corso buzz and the high from tailgate weed wore off in the third quarter, the real TOSU stood up. The line protected, the runs became longer, the secondary made hits, Laglow got pressured..TOSU looked in midseason form. Urban is one of the best, if not the best in the country with halftime adjustments. Next to Saint Nick. Dobbins and Campbell are special players and will offset the Curtis Samuel loss. That will be a nasty 1-2 punch with Weber and Dobbins. Look out world, TOSU is here to stay.
Indiana got wore down, but that's a tough venue and they will beat some teams they shouldn't this year. Especially with that pace.
Rutgers: This team is improved. Much more physical, savvy QB. They just could not handle those speedy wrs of Washington. Not many teams will...probably one of the best groups in the country with a solid TE. Liking Rutgers upside.
Maryland: Is this OSU lite? Wtf is going on here? I know Herman doesn't have fairy dust or anything like that but you don't go to Austin and hang 51 like it's nothing. Wow. Both qbs drove for tds. They ran at will. THe oline was dominating. The run defense stifled the longhorn attack pretty much all game long minus a few runs from the qb and some broke a few. Durkin is a disciple of Urban and Harbaugh and looks like his RPO offense is humming like it was week 10. He opted for the uptempo offense with physicality like Urban uses and he is seeing the fruits of that labor early. I like DJ. I like his QBs. I like the moxie of this squad. They could have folded in the 4th and didn't. Fun offense to watch.
Michigan: Has the defense missed a beat? Doesn't look like it. They looked in midseason form already, even against a shitty offense. They might even have a better defense than last year if that's even possible. Give Don Brown another pay raise.
I like that the run blocking has gotten better, the rbs are stacked, the wrs are young but fast, and full of potential.
I am not a fan of WIlton Speight. Never have nor will I ever be. He is a loud guy who has good leadership abilities and can throw a pretty deep ball 2 times out of 10 in a game. What's that? About 20%? He does have good pocket presence and looks comfortable but has a major major problem with the color of jersey he throws to. This dude is the definition of a participation trophy winner in practice who is the teacher's pet. Ya, you know that kid...the one you wanted to beat the fuck out of in 3rd grade..that's him. He's reached his ceiling and Michigan will never win shit as long as he is QB. At least not a national title. Can't use the injury excuse anymore either. He has hit his ceiling. O'korn needs to get more comfortable in the pocket. The team doesn't beat to his drum. He needs reps with the 1's but Speight is Harbaugh's boy. God forgive me for criticizing the QB whisperer Jim Harbaugh..blasphemy! It's just sad the best QB is on the bench because he's pussy whipped over his gf in Indiana.
Speight does just enough to win I guess..but against a good offense and good defense..Michigan won't win that game.
Also am not a fan of Harbaugh's play calling. Shit is so Lloyd Carrish..it bugs me. The whole stadium knows you are going to run on first down dude!
My bets live and die with QB's in CFB. Always have and always will. In today's game you need a dual threat. The game has evolved. Even Bama has one.
That's all I got. Those are the only ones I saw. And I had to get my Speight rant in..I sincerely hope he proves me wrong this year. He is a Hoke recruit. I want that fucker out. Hoke players suck shit sticks.
