Higgins. He will only get better.
I think we need Harris in certain situations inside the 20 -
But we HCSH is not aggressive enough to go that route
Higgins was servicable today - kinda like Kubik
Throws were erratic at best and took too long on the read option
But still couldn't punch it in the endzone and that's all that matters
10 pts is not going to win you any ballgames -
That said, we moved at will between the 30's most of the day but that's about it
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
I have to admit I was unsure about scotty the first time I saw him at the bar drinking whiskey. I really felt unsure the tenth time I saw him at the bar drinking whiskey.
I know I just said I've been to a bar ten times... but I'm not trying to propel Tech into a BCS bowl game.
Sometimes I feel like I care more about the team than the players do. If I had that kind of ability, I'd be doing nothing but working out, sleeping, and watching film.
I feel his pain. Since watching them this year I've become quite the connoisseur.
Dixonfor6, has some of those been since the season started? Which reminds me, I played beer pong against Colby the Thursday before the LSU game a few years back. Not sure if he was even the back up then, but I knew he probably wasn't going to play. Anyway, what impressed me is he played bp, but he had his partner drink for him, and he left the party early. I don't know if he drinks or not, but his reasoning why..."I have a game Saturday."
I am not sure Young has had the benefit of a well designed game plan like Higgins did today. The coaches moved some guys around and came up with a good game plan today. Higgins turns the ball over too much for me. Interceptions, fumbles, dropped Ints by the D have saved him 3-4 more this year. I want to see Young healthy with a decent game plan. I think he makes several of the downfield throws much more accurately than Higgins and can help us win games. Regardless of who the QB is I want to see us RUN the ball more.
Out of what setup would you like to see us running?Originally Posted by Gooddawg
Higgins should be our guy. He overthrows at times, but I think that is fear of interceptions. I think he shows some real potential. He is making mistakes that a really good QB would make in his first game. He lost the ball on the goal line, but at least he was AGGRESSIVE! He looked calm, but you could see that he WANTED IT!!!!!!!!!!
Yes his body language was much better. He was calm and always encouraging the other guys. I think the team probably sees him as more of a leader
The jury is still out for me. Higgins actually moved the ball effectively all day.
Neither one can throw anything near an accurate long ball, which we desperately need to make this offense really click.
I agree, but with our young and inexperienced O-line, there's only so much you can do with it.
Really bad post. First of all, Higgins' INT was NOT his fault. The ball was well thrown. It was the fault of #8, who just flat missed it. (Who is #8 for Tech anyway?) Next, Higgins did a great job of surveying the field and finding open receivers all day. Higgins completed passes to 8 different receivers yesterday. Higgins also moves around inside and outside the pocket MUCH BETTER than Scotty Young. By contrast, Scotty Young TELEGRAPHS everything he does, and he looks at only one receiver -- the CLOSEST one. Any decent defense (even Tulane's) KNOWS what Scotty Young is going to do before he actually does it.
HA! Ask Dixon if he felt like Lamar knew where the passes where about to be thrown!
Not true at all. Watch again at the 3:19 mark of the 1st quarter. The ball is thrown high and behind Jackson right at the defender. Jackson adjusted to try to make the catch, but couldn't. Had the ball been thrown well it would have been caught, if Jackson doesn't reach back it is an easy INT by the DB instead of the tipped INT to the LB.
