production. In the red zone, the field is so much shorter so more guys were in the box to stop our running threat. It also made it more difficult to complete passes cause more guys are in the passing lanes and we just weren't accurate throwing the ball.

I have now re-watched the Texas, Houston, and Boise games in their entirety.

Also, there were a ridiculous amount of offsides penalties on kickoffs. Weird.

I think improved O-line play with help reduce the penalties

Sure, but things like false starts and bad snaps are more mental

Yeah and Texas is top-5 annually and they have stunk.

Virginia also tends to be at around 25 in recruiting class as well

Exactly.

Recruiting class rank has no effect on discipline.

Cool. What's Oregon's SOS?

So far I've counted 5 potential TD's off of the board due to mental mistakes.

my #1 beef with bronco is that for a coach that preaches "execution" and

It's one thing to lose because the other team was faster, bigger and stronger.

His defenses do. And the O did from 2006-2009.

In relation to the topic of discipline leading to penalties, BYU is rarely good.

southernfriedcougar

8/22/14 5:39pm

Yep, see consecutive games against our rival

Discipline unravels for everyone when you're getting your tail kicked.

Actually BYU beat Texas, Boise, and Houston. Many mistakes were still made.

Oregoncoug14

I don't remember us going down 2+ TDs to any of those guys.

Mantis Mutu

8/23/14 11:41am

We didn't, which is why your theory of teams unraveling when getting their tails

I never claimed it was the ONLY time teams played undisciplined. Our OL

Exactly. I absolutely blame Heaps, Doman, AND Riley for the 2013 ST play.

I think teams develop identities which for the most part define who they are.

Oregoncoug14

On O, our line play sets the tone. On D, our LBs do.
