UTEP vs UTSA: Game Thread

[rhern514]

Great kick return way to make a play dawn.

 

[kickballpro]

Win or lose, UTEP football is much more fun to watch

 

[rhern514]

****en defense what the hell cmon holy shit

 

[nattybry]

So apparently after the long break our Defense has reverted back to last year's SMH 😒

****en defense what the hell cmon holy shit

This game reminds me of the later Mike Price years.

Whoever scores last wins.

 

[Taco1977]

We just can't get our stuff together. One moment our secondary sucks and the next our front seven sucks. What the heck man!

 

[MineroFanatico]

This is NOT the same defense we’ve been watching. UTSA is not some juggernaut of an offense. Damn!

 

[develman]

My god who is number 4? he's as slow as molasses.

 

[nattybry]

3 time outs 18 seconds need about 30 yards for a FG to tie and we down it? Way to have faith in your team Dimel!

 

[utep2step]

Linebacker shadowing QB overplayed to his right and left a plethora of green for him to run it in. Ugh

 

[utep2step]

My god who is number 4? he's as slow as molasses.

Forrester. He's the lb shadowing and bit on his fake throw to the right. Rest is in the books.

I thought Forrester was number 47?

Dimel plays every hand the same. No poker face. No surprises. No straying from the plan. The epitome of conservative coaching as a strategy rather than as a function.

 

[utep2step]

I thought Forrester was number 47?

Yes. If you saw the replay he is shadowing the QB. Their qb pumped faked, Forrester bit on it and couldn't make up ground.

 

[MineroFanatico]

I thought Forrester was number 47?

He is.

 

[MineroFanatico]

My god who is number 4? he's as slow as molasses.

I believe it’s Jerome Wilson, another LB.

 

[utep2step]

UTEP secondary needs to tighten up. D line doing their part with 3 batted balls and pressure.

But then again, UTSA has no answer for Hankins and O line giving Hardison time.

That's why Snyder said its time to part ways & KSU fans rejoiced.

Well, our LB'ers seem to lack speed.

 

[Lil_Train]

UTEP has blitzed a bunch more today, and Harris has made them pay. Hopefully, the defense can get some pressure/hits on him to disrupt him. The lack of speed at linebacker is very apparent.

 

[JCorona]

Nice punt to pin utsa at their own 1.

Nevermind.

 

[kickballpro]

Hardison has to hit those throws.

 

[JCorona]

Victoria smashed the UTEP piñata while on commercial break.

 

[nattybry]

I thought the break would have our D refreshed, but they have definitely regressed a great deal today. Not sure I understand why they're all of the sudden playing so Awful?!

 

[JCorona]

And just like that we went from taking a halftime lead to down by 10 in the middle of the 3rd.

 

[develman]

Slow and can't tackle.

 

[Taco1977]

This secondary is terrible! The corner starts so far off and then run themselves out of the play as soon as the ball is snapped. We're just giving them 7-yard stops all day!

 

[Rot]

We’re making Harris look like an All-American QB. We have to make some major adjustments on defense.

 

[Minerforlife]

Wheels are coming off.

 

[shyminer81]

Man, that fumble is going to be costly.

 

[kickballpro]

Same story as the other 2 CUSA losses, players not making plays

 

[MineroFanatico]

We CANNOT get out of our own way!

 

[JCorona]

If we’re not careful this can turn Into a rout.

 

[MineroFanatico]

UTSA is creative on offense. Hard to tell what’s coming next. UTEP is predictable. You always know what’s coming next.

 

[develman]

Players not executing more than anything.

 

[Rot]

I see UTSA is throwing an array of offensive plays and the Miners remain with their vanilla offense. This is strictly on the Miner coaches.

 

[kickballpro]

Its like we are facing Lamar Jackson

 

[Rot]

No defense whatsoever. Very easy drive for utsa.

 

[shyminer81]

Thats gotta be game. So far they've beat a bad ULM and some fcs teams. Dimel hasn't improved much. Wonder if this will be the last game we see?

 

[develman]

Coaches don't miss 2 short field goals, miss open receivers, fumble the ball, miss blocks, get run over by the opposing offensive line, etc, etc.
