I need some help here. I do not understand why our receivers are almost always being grabbed, knocked off routes well down field, pushed and we seldom get a PI call. We never do the same. Is this because they are not coached to be aggressive or what? Brewer got cut in half well before the the ball arrived, right in front of the ref....no call. On CJ's Offensive PI, he did what the TCU DB did to him all game long, was that a legit call. I know it made no difference because Shack was down field, We never do the same. Is this because they are not coached to be aggressive or what.
On another unrelated issue, Coburn got called for roughing when he hit the QB a split second after he released the ball, could not hold up. Got called for roughing. A little later, Sam get leveled by a linebacker much later then Coburn and is slammed to the ground. Why no call for the hit on Sam. Is all this a continuation of the OSU game in the Strong era?
Some other things that hurt us. We won the penalty stat, by getting a lot more penalties.
On 1st and goal just inside the10, we got a motion penalty moving us behind the chains. I think we had to settle for a FG, or it might have been the one we missed. On another drive, Angilau got another motion penalty on 1st down putting us behind the chains, I think we had to punt on the position. On Jones interception, a blind side block by Owens cost us 40 yards of field position. We ended up getting the ball inside our 20 instead on near the TCU 40. For the year, we are about -5 on Punt returns.
On the bright side, our volleyball team is looking good!
