Midwestern Hawk

I’ve watched it several times, I still can’t get past we let almost half the time left expire on one play. Tommy forced the throw because he felt the time pressure. Everyone felt the time pressure, including the announcers. The time management over the last 1:30 is just stunning.

So was the sack planned? The staff wanted to run down the clock? Is this a real comment? Tommy obviously felt the time pressure and forced a bad throw and we lost the game. Not sure what is perfect about that. If we call a TO after the sack, we can regroup, call the play and talk about the next play based on down and distance.

How were we going to leave SDSU a bunch of time? Did we think Tommy was going to throw a 31 yard TD pass on 2nd and 18 after the sack? That would have been by far our longest play all day. We let almost half the time expire on the sack. That is inexcusable. IF Tommy completes that pass we have 3rd and short around the 13 or a first down around the 12, with around 45 seconds to go.

Went form 1st and 10 at the 23 with 1:30 to go(plenty of time), to 2nd and 18 from the 31 with 51 seconds to go.

Almost half the 90 seconds had expired on the sack. They had 51 seconds when Tommy snapped the ball on 2nd and 18 from the 31. That is terrible clock/game management. Like I said earlier in the 39 seconds wasted on the sack, the clock went form no problem to a huge problem and it was obvious that Tommy felt that too.

Do you want to explain the game/time management at the end of the game? It was like watching a bad high school staff manage the clock. Tommy pick is on the staff.

We had the ball 1st and 10 at the 23 yard line with 90 seconds left. Tommy forced a bad throw on second and 18 after the sack with 51 seconds to go.

This team was as good as any team in the MVFC, the game management wasn’t. Those are the facts. Not sure when our personnel will be good enough to compensate for the way the end of the game was handled in Brookings. If the SDSU game was an aberration, that would be one thing, the poor game management was the rule.

But it’s not random luck, the last 90 seconds of that game were a disaster by the staff. It went from plenty of time to win, to a panic(after the sack), to a loss. Thats on the coaches. Why not call a time out?

And every game had massive coaching brain farts. the last 90 seconds of this game would have been run better by a seasoned middle school staff.

And that says it all. We will NEVER be good enough to be THAT good.

100% correct. The last 1:30 of that game was a disaster as far as game/time management goes. They wasted 1/3 of the time left with that sack. Went form plenty of time to a panic. Just pathetic.

Bubba.

I just don't see this regime getting over the hump. Too many poor decisions.

No idea why we don't spike it after the big 4th down throw or at the very least call TO after the sack. That is very poor game management.

Same ol' sh%t

!@#$ FO&K PISS. Clock management again.

BIG BALLS ALL AROUND THERE

C'mon O. get the 4th TD.

C'mon D!!! Make a play.

Tommy has 7 runs for 50 yards in every game this season and we are undefeated in MVFC.

hell yeah!!!

Great run by Tommy...where has this been?

Danny must have talked to T about running all week. Nice.

no.
