Agree 100%, but a ball that was not under thrown is a TD. Big difference.

Here is the reality with Hall today. They did not play a safety. Puka beat his

Hall is decent but he’s far from accurate.

BlackHawkCoug

He was inaccurate in HS, too. Run Hall more, as we did w/Tayson, who also had

Precisely the right point. He’s much like Taysom

CougarGregor

Yes run him more but he was 22/31. This thread is getting carried away

YIsForBrigham

The reality is Hall was 4 for 4 on deep balls. 100%. Expecting perfect throws on all of them is unrealistic.

Turnpike Lane

No, we demand he be even more accurate than 100%. Eyeroll

All-American

10/16/21 7:02pm

They were not good passes. Underthrow better than overthrow, but decent ball

GeraldGarner

10/16/21 7:35pm

Who expected perfect throws ON ALL OF THEM? How about just ONE IN STRIDE?

The_Cuss

10/16/21 7:02pm

Would be nice. Still gotta take 100% success rate.

Turnpike Lane

10/16/21 7:04pm

Two failed drives not successful outcomes

vegas guey

10/16/21 7:09pm

So you are blaming failed drives on completed deep passes? Makes sense.

10/16/21 7:13pm

I think you missed the point badly. A better pass is a TD. The completions were

I get that. I just think it’s number 997 on the list of reasons BYU lost.

10/17/21 1:11am

Yeah. Especially the first where on his next throw Hall missed Puka in the EZ.

Right so we need to figure out why. RZ issues hurt us the last two weeks. We’re great before that so what happened.

Turnpike Lane

10/16/21 7:16pm

What happened after those passes was not because of those deep passes. No run

Yea but if we complete for a TD, now you have to defend, less guys defending the

Sorry it was late. Finished my comment.

Blue for Life

10/17/21 10:13am

I think the point is we have another guy who can deliver a perfrct deep ball.

Backcountry

10/16/21 9:08pm

He was not 4 for 4 on deep balls

pappabear246

10/16/21 9:48pm

100% how about 25%? The reality is he under threw the ball. WR made a great play

Blue for Life

10/16/21 11:08pm

Lol. A catch counts as a completion no matter how it was completed.

boctabulous

10/16/21 11:16pm

Agree 100%, but a ball that was not under thrown is a TD. Big difference.

Blue for Life

10/17/21 10:13am

Not always. A ball that's overthrown isn't a TD

boctabulous

10/17/21 10:19am

Wilson's uncanny accuracy on deep balls spoiled us. Rarely see a QB like that

morningcalmcougar

10/17/21 12:05pm

Yep and even Wilson underthrew guys on deep balls occasionally

boctabulous

You must not watch a lot of high quality teams

pappabear246

He also got sacked on 3 drives inside Baylor's 30 that led to only 3 points

PortlandCoug

10/16/21 6:54pm

That was an issue. When nothing there hit the check down fast. I’d say that is what needs to improve.

oh, ya. If this happens....then this happens....then this happens...and we win

We you beat your guy by 5 yards you don’t need a jump ball.

BYUheaven

10/16/21 6:56pm

This is a completely reasonable take

Graig Swame

10/16/21 7:41pm

Exactly. A poorly completed pass is not the same result as a well executed pass.

10/16/21 9:56pm

Under throwing your guy that had his guy beat by 5 yards is criminal. We were

Massively is hyperbole. If they were massive underthrows then they would be

The last 2 teams have bet that Hall wouldn’t be able to beat them with his arm

If teams do that, keep passing the long ball. 4 for 4 is a great percentage and

If I’m a DC, I’m fine playing run and letting Hall throw those deep balls.

Puka had his guy beat badly both times

Baylor makes all of those throws

Baylor should be in the NFL with the way you guys talk. Most QB’s in college are

Baylor is a legit NFL prospect. And Jaren should be playing baseball.

No penalties. No sacks. No turnovers. More than 6 yards a carry on first down. I’m sure their yards after contact were
