Vigen Head Scratchers

Bobby had a few head scratchers this year where he was out coached.
Nobody is saying he didn’t. As much as you’re over here you’ve seen plenty of complaints from us about our coaching staff this year. All we’ve heard from you and your cast of cat trolls was how amazing Vigen is. He looked utterly befuddled all night. All he could do was waggle his tongue or use it to lash his players when they came to the sideline. Kicking that fg early down 14-0 showed everything. He didn’t have a championship mentality. Daly looked as befuddled every time they panned to him as the bison were grinding their way down the field.

Tommy is the only reason that game became close. He’s been your whole team for the last 3 1/4 years. It will be interesting to see what they are without him and how all world your line is when teams don’t have to hold back due to that major running threat in the +1 game. You’ll see some heavy boxes that weren’t possible against Tommy.

One of the few correct decisions he made all night. Of course you take the points there. 3 points turned out to be the margin of victory.

And if they would have gone for the td and made it seven they could have had a one point victory. That was more about mentality than points on the board. Made the opposite call in the 4th down 10 and look what happened. Hindsight is always 20/20, but sure seemed like he was just hoping to hang at that point instead of win.

Margin of victory the wrong way though. Turn that 3 into 7 and the Cats win by 1. (Obviously the way the final minutes played out would have been way different).

I didn't like the decision. You're in the red zone. Your defense is shell shocked. You've got the Payton award winner and 3 yards to go vs the 9x national champs. You gotta make a play there. What made it even worse was when he then decided to go for it in a way worse situation before half. Smart football would have been to go for it in the red zone and punt before half. Those two plays lost the game last night for the Cats.
 
Well he lost a game he was favored in. On a national stage for all the marbles. And he looked really really bad doing it. So many bad decisions and completely outcoached. There are no points for 2nd place. FTC.
Well, I will still take Vigen and this season’s record. Bobby lost a few games he was favored in too. I don’t think losing by 3 pts is looking really bad. It was a fun time in Frisco!
 
HHB pointed out a 3rd down incompletion in another thread.
I actually believed there were at least 2 possibly 3 of those that were the worst calls and biggest coaching blunders in the game.
They should have told Tommy that if his first read was not wide effin open, to scramble and go get the sticks with his legs. Do not try to thread the needle. Those few incompletions were drive killers.
 
yeah. but that tongue......yikes. looks like he just got a root canal and wasn't sure exactly how to locate his tongue properly in his mouth. just kind of kept oddly falling out. or maybe there was a wee demon in the back of his throat that was trying to push the tongue out. i don't know, i'm not a tongueologist.
 
The ol' walk-off punt to win the NC. IDK what the equivalent of a bat flip is for a punter, but he had every right to do it right there.

Well that Morehead state punter did the machine gun to all of WaGriz after getting one inside the 20 when they were down like 40. That took some balls and little brains. Might be about as much as I’ve seen. I guess the Pat McAfee strut would be second.
