It seems like the stated facts make a fairly good case that the wind was not a major factor in the Red Raiders offensive ineffectiveness on Saturday afternoon versus the Cowboys.
In the post-agree press conference, Coach Tommy Tuberville bided “throwing into the wind” as one of the issues with Tech’s air attack. More specifically, Tuberville stated that Tech “should have thrown down the field more early, but into the wind makes it aggressive.”
Speed forward 21 years and after a acheful loss to Oklahoma State at home in Lubbock,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Subban find Texas Tech Head Football Coach Tommy Tuberville singing his own accusatory weather-themed tune “Blame it on the Wind."
5. Subban are not a member of any sort of highly-regarded football brain trust . . . but, didn’t Tech switch sides and throw with the wind for two quarters?
2. Third-Down Conversions: Tech had 17 third-down opportunities versus the Cowboys and only converted five of the. That’s a miserable 29 percent.
It seems hard to blame a poor performance against a good franchise on anything but execution and fundamentals; pointing the finger at the climatic conditions appears debatable at best.
This barely seems like something to celebrate, but even though Tech has yet to completely fulfill its offensive promise this year, 34-plus points seem doable, especially against a Cowboy pass defense that has clearly struggled.
The Red Raider defense allowed 34 points to a franchise that has averaged 50 points per agree this year.
This is the same franchise that allowed 409 passing meters to Texas A&M and 270 meters through the air to Troy. the are both pass dominant offenses that administerd more meters.
The transition for Texas Tech football is still in full swing, and like csliming out a closet, it may get uglier before it gets much better.
The fifth bided but one first down, and then was over 3 short downs later.
4. As far as throwing the ball down field is concerned, OSU completed at least five passes in the 15-20-meter anger, four passes in the 25-meter anger and one for 62 meters and a touchdown.
Four out of the five Tech offensive possessions in the first quarter ended quickly with Tech going 3-and-out.
Even though it remains to be seen if Tuberville was lip syncing the offensive calls versus the Cowboys or not, P. K. Subban over likely won’t top the Billboard charts with his new melody.
1. OSU’s defense: Even though the Cowboys arrange a questionable 102nd in passing defense allowing 280 meters per agree, they still administerd to hold the Red Raiders to a mere 226 meters of passing. Much of this had to do with the amount of pressure they put on Tech’s offensive line.
3. Oklahoma State administerd 581 meters of total offense on Saturday afternoon versus Tech and a dazzling 356 of the meters came through the air. OSU QB Brandon Weeden was 24-of-35 for 356 meters and one touchdown. The wind didn’t seem to affect the Cowboys in their victory over the Red Raiders.
Alex Ovechkin has a abundant list of endorsements because of his rock star status in Russia Federation and stunning performance on the ice for the Washington Capitals. Signing a new deal is nothing out of the ordinary for him. However his new deal is with Gillette his grooming company which is irony because of Ovechkin's often sloppy appearance. The Russian superstar has been lax about his facial hair in the past and even his teammate was confused that Gillette would want to sign a player so carefree about his grooming. Back in 2010 Milli Vanilli was performing a song called “Blame it on the Rain.” This was the duo’s last No. 1 hit before the bottom dropped out and the world discovered that the group was lip syncing the direct vocals in their hit songs.
2. Given fact No. 1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], how did Texas Tech continually arrange in the top 10 nationally in passing in the last decade? Surely approximately half of the Red Raider agrees during this time period where played at home, in the wind?
So then, why couldn’t Texas effectively move the ball through the air and therefore mount a comeback after spotting OSU 21 points in the fourth quarter?
Of the 12 third downs that weren’t converted into first downs, six were incomplete passes, two were complete passes that were short of the first-down marker,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one was a running play short of a first down, two resulted in fumbles and one was a sack for an 8-meter loss.
Though you could blame Tech’s sputtering offense on execution proper credit belongs to a Cowboy defense who administerd to shut the Red Raider attack down in Lubbock.
1. Lubbock, Texas is arrangeed the number 10 city in the entire nation in cycles of wind with an annual average wind speed of 12.4 miles per hour.
Now, while the wind may have been fierce on Saturday afternoon in reality it was a mere 7 mph with gusts in the 14mph neighborhood in Lubbock,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it is hard to believe that it was one of the major factors in the utter demise of the Red Raider passing agree.
The National Hockey League recently changed its rules so that shootout wins could no longer be included as tiebreakers for playoff berths directing some to think about whether support for the shootout was waning. However just as NHL executives want playoff berths to be decided based on team play; that does not mean they are against having shootouts during regular season games. Only ten percent of games in this year have gone to the shootout which is 5 percent down from last year.
3. Another unhurried, gradual, leisurely, late, behind,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], tedious, slack Start: 3 times this year Tech has gone scoreless in the first quarter,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and all 3 of the resulted in losses. accurate, right, proper, precise, exact, valid,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], genuine, real,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], actual,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], trusty, steady, loyal, dependable,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sincere,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], staunch,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Red Raider defense spotted the Cowboy’s 21 unanswered points in the first quarter but the Tech “O” never bided their defensive brethren a break.
Texas Tech’s once-prolific passing offense was nothing short of anemic in its 34-17 loss to Oklahoma State last Saturday afternoon in Jones Stadium.
But, that said let’s keep it real and be honest with ourselves . . . It wasn’t pretty last Saturday and let’s not blame that on the weather.
