    The DPI against Texas on Iowa State’s opening drive was bogus. That was solid defense.


    The 3rd down play for Texas, where Ewers threw to Mitchell in the end zone (not the TD play), the DB had far more contact against Mitchell. No call. 

    JT Sanders was already out of bounds by 2 yards when the defender pulled him down from behind, injuring him no less. No call.

    Whittington was out of bounds a full second when he was hit. No call. 

     

    All of this I agree with. Interference is not called both ways by Big 12 officials. On a long pass a receiver  can  push the DB back while gaining separation going forward and  offensive interference is never called. If the DB tries to keep from being pushed back defensive interference is called. Tough being a DB in Big12.

    #87 was covered up and they had 8 men on the line scrimmage on this play that lead to the tight end touch down.

    Just looked at play on my TV. I recorded the game. The TE that caught the ball was not covered up. He did not even have his hand on the ground. Iowa St had 6 offensive linemen and one  receiver on the line. The 4 off the line were Qb,Rb, Wr and Te.

    Eh, it was a nice play call. The whole point was for the QB to full everyone and cause them to come up. It worked. I’ll give credit to Campbell for that. 

    I disagree. Thompson’s eyes should be on his keys not in the backfield the whole play. It’s not his job to look in the backfield and read pass or run. This is why we are not a good zone defense. If we play man then we can’t cover crossing routes. Our secondary wears me out every game. We are not taking advantage of how good we are up front because the backend can’t read simple keys.

    Don't think you read the part of Franklin not doing anything back when I was in school. Had nothing to do with the team not having a chance. A coach over in Westwood played on that 2008 team in Franklin.

    Yes I just went back and edited my post. It was 2008. In 2007 we beat Diboll then lost in the 2nd round to China Springs. I am getting old. I get the years mixed up. That happens after coaching 27 years.

    What has Westwood won ever? Not even a district championship

    They actually won district in 2008 that had Palestine ,Crockett, Athens, Brownsboro, and Fairfield in it. Besides Fairfield all the schools were much larger in enrollment. Played Lorena in the Playoff's in Waco. I coached there at that time. Held them to 3 and out first drive then DJ Morrow had a 63 yard TD run on first play. It was a good game. We were down by 6 with 2 min left. Held them on 4th down. On the next possession on 2nd down we turned it over and they scored again winning by 13. Then next week they lost to Carthage like 7-0. Westwood may have not done much but they have done something. I know Lorena is favored and so does everyone else but there is no reason to get on someone who just thinks their team has a chance. I hope the coach that is there now will stay around awhile. I hope both teams play well and come out injury free.

    Lorena is just as skilled and athletic

    I did not say Lorena was not as skilled. Seen both play. My point was I don’t think Westwood’ front 7 is not going to have much success against Lorena’s offensive line. Wish both team well and good luck

    I have no knowledge about who is in the lead for the head coaching job, but Traylor's response to the rumors was interesting to say the least.

    What was Taylor’s response, and by the way I hope he gets the job. I’m a retired Texas High School coach so I’m rooting for him unless he is playing Texas,

  8. I coached for 27 years. Not once did I lose a single game because of officials, did some calls happen that I did not agree with? yes. I think most of the time people complain is on a bang bang play that happens fast. On those calls 50% of the people are going to say it was the right call and 50% will say it was a bad call. The completely ignorant ones that say that official wants the other team to win is the ones I do not understand. Most of the officials at games are not even from that area much less the town. I can agree that you have the right to your opinion on a call, but to ride an official for 4 quarter on that call is totally ignorant. Last rant. 90% of the time I thought an official missed a call, I found out after watching film it was the right call. The other 10% were bang bang calls that could have went either way.
