Agreed. Cougars had a strong 5 year run from 95-2000. But 96’ was probably the best team.

Yeah. In that situation the team muffing the punt is rewarded with 20 yards and possession of the ball.

Yeah. Loose scrimmage kick breaking the plane of the EZ in high school federation rules is a touchback. Kick never ended, it was just muffed. Looks awkward but that's the right call. If it was caught and then fumbled its live. Kicking team's best scenario is to recover at that 1 in that situation.

If the ball was loose when it broke the plane of EZ it is a touchback.

"Catching a break" in reference to a live ball being stopped. It was just a likely TD had the kid realized it was live. I have no idea if it was a fumble or not, was way too far away to see that. I agree, more like a 7 point loss. Probably wouldn't have mattered. UH was on a roll on both sides of the ball last night.

That fumble was a big play in the game. However, the HL (not the SJ) immediately dropped his bean bag and 6 of the officials mirrored the PBS player with the ball. One official took the ball from that player when he stood with the ball. Had he let the play go, I think eventually PBS player would have listened to the screaming sideline and stands and probably scored a TD. UH caught a break there.
The long TD was a TE or Wing back straight up the seam. There is no way the DB hit that same HL, or any of the wing officials for that matter, unless he was running in white on the sideline. He may have hit the umpire if he hit anyone.
I agree with choupique, holding calls were pretty equal.
UH was clearly the better team. I was very impressed with the balance UH has.

re: NFL Teams Refusing to go for 2
Posted by meaux tigers on 10/10/13 at 12:50 pm to dnm3305
Again, if you did it all the time, I'd bet you are looking at more like 40/60 chance at best for each play. Even at 50/50 I don't call that a "high probability."
re: NFL Teams Refusing to go for 2
Posted by meaux tigers on 10/10/13 at 12:27 pm to barry
Others have said this, but they are exactly right. Teams rep a handful 2 point plays until they get them down and coaches feel comfortable that they will succeed. They even have a spot on their call sheet for 2 point plays. That's how specialized of a play it is. The conversion rate would almost certainly go down if everyone went for 2 all the time. As specialized and practiced as 2 point conversions are now, and the fact that they still only convert 48% of the time shows that.
re: Catholic High's Clay Moffitt tears ACL again
Posted by meaux tigers on 8/24/13 at 6:58 pm to wildtigercat93
At 6-foot-3 and 240 pounds, Moffitt looks like an ideal tight end. With good power and pretty good speed and footwork, he looks like a natural for football and has an LSU offer that isn’t just a feel-good bone thrown at the kid of a coach.
“When I talked to coach Cameron, he emphasized to me that they want me to have a scholarship,” Moffitt said. “They don’t want to do it the cheap way, because they look at me as a Division I football player.”

He has an eligibility clock that starts when he enrolled in school. To my knowledge it is 5 years to play 4. The only exceptions I know of are the 6th years having to do with medical hardships.

re: TM7 will remain at drug rehab center (in lieu of playing FB) for the near future

Agree. Not a loophole, wrong wording, but you get what I was saying. I do think it's 24 hrs per school year though, not calendar. I think his year clock starts in August. Not 100% though.

I do know that the NCAA rule per eligibility back in 2006 was an athlete must pass 6 hours a semester to stay eligible and I think 24 for the year. Not 100% on the numbers, but there was a minimum to pass per semester and a total for the year. Therefore there is some opportunity to make up a bad fall semester, in the spring or summer, but there is also a minimum requirement to even have that shot. To my understanding it's NFL or bust if he passes 0 hours this semester. The only loophole I can think of is the 0 hrs makes him ineligible for spring, but of he gets to 24 (again not 100% on the actual #) by next fall he could be reinstated per NCAA eligibility rules.

He can play as many sports as he wants. However the second he plays in a football game, he counts against the football scholarships and frees up a baseball scholly, or whichever sport he was on scholarship to begin with.
re: QB Play: NOT the Major Problem w/the Offense (statistical support)

This is true. Someone mentioned earlier, and I began to do it but decided it would take too much time, looking at 1st down stats and see what position we put our offense into.
I think I have a better idea of how to do that now.
What could be done is a little bit of research to see some percentages of how great your chances are increased of converting based on how much yardage is gained on first down.
very telling stat. Spent some time at the 1aa level, and this is a huge point of emphasis on all staffs. How can we get to 2nd or 3rd and short and how can we keep them out of these situations.

OBU: I agree with most of your post. I just have a few problems with your assessment.
Obviously the biggest problem with the O was lack of a running game. It was evident in your 3rd and short breakdown. I venture to guess the same would be true on all running downs.
The offense is based on a strong running game and a complimentary passing game. I disagree with the fact that we have a "game manager" @ QB. JJ's biggest problem in my eyes was putting a ball control offense in bad situations. Although he was only sacked a "few" more times than Flynn, JJ sacks were "drive killers". I saw too many situations where manageable situations were turned into 2nd or 3rd and long. I'm not not refering to porous o-line sacks, I'm talking about "coverage" sacks. Porous o-line or not, a game manager can't take a coverage sack in a manageable situation.
That being said, I don't go to practice everyday, so I trust the coaches. If JJ gives us he best chance to win, let's get it corrected.

re: Any NSU Demon fans up in here?

Virtually no talent? According to media guide, 18 returning starters (7 on Offense, 9 on Defense, 2 specialist) from a 7-5 team that finished 4-3 (T-3) in conference. 50 total letter winners returning. Add to that the #1 recruiting class. This was the year they were building to in Natchitoches. I will grant you, there is a new system and the offense has sustained some injuries, but they have enough talent to finish around .500.
