re: Turns out last play of the game was a good call.

I don't get this. If it was a committed pass to the pylon, a 9 year old can make that throw. It wasn't too difficult. It was either late in the progression or bad execution.

Y'all keep saying it was an easy throw (lol at saying a 9 year old can make that pass) all while ignoring that King has never shown he can make that kind of throw w/any kind of accuracy.

Nguyening brings up another good point that not only was Jimbo relying on an inaccurate QB to make a perfect timing throw, he also expected freshman WR to run the perfect route.

I'm sorry but these kids aren't robots. Jimbo expects those two to make that play was begging for failure. Had they been vet players who had routinely made those kids of plays it would be one thing but they are both young guys who have been mistake prone.


Earlier I was asked what I would have done, well it would have been something designed to get it to Achane as the first option. A swing pass designed to get him 1 on 1 most likely. He's our best player and the ball should have been in his hands.

Hell, even a run would have been ok by me. In the last two possessions A&M ran 21 plays. Exactly 2 of them were rushing plays and Achane got 15 yards on one and King got 1 on the other. I doubt Bama would have even expected a run at that point TBH.
