OM/Arkansas Thread: Interesting thing just happened

[ShotgunDawg]

An interesting thing just happened in the OM/Arkansas game that probably went un-noticed and should be looked at by the rule officials:

Situation: OM is in their hurry up, no huddle offense, and by rule, as long as the offense doesn't substitute in this situation, the defense can't substitute either. If the offense does substitute then the officials have to give the defense the time to substitute, and since the offense never huddles, the can technically never break the huddle with to many players on the field.

What happened: OM had 11 guys in the field, and then a random OM offensive player ran on the field to about he hash marks, then turned around and ran off. Thinking that OM was substituting, Arkansas ran a guy on the field, but since the OM player ran off quickly, Ark was caught with 12 men on the field.

I don't believe OM did this on purpose, but it brings up an interesting debate, can the offensive team run fake substitutes in an effort to catch the defense with to many men on the field while trying to match the offenses fake substitution?

I saw that too... and immediately blamed OM for a clear attempt to cheat the game of it's integrity. they did it on purpose and all Hugh freeze tweets are evil.

I hope Arky hangs an L on them. A let down game today and the magical Freezus is a whopping 12-10 as a head coach in O-town.

Yea, it's a rule the SEC is going to have to look at. If a 12th offensive player touches the field, no matter if he substitutes or not, the defense should be allotted time to substitute.

[ShotgunDawg]

OM's receivers simply always make the first guy miss. Freeze's offense isn't a genius offensive design. If teams tackle well, it could be stopped rather easily, but OM's receivers make the first guy miss and Wallace falls forward.

[messageboardsuperhero]

I saw that too. Obviously it wasn't on purpose, but it did give Arkansas the impression that UM was going to sub, thus allowing UM to catch Arky with 12 men on the field.

As a side note, why in the hell do coaches play corners 8-10 yards off UM receivers? 80% of their pass attempts are within 10 yards, so they'll just take it all the way down the field like that. It makes no sense. Press their receivers and make Wallace/Brunetti beat you with their arm strength.

[MarketingBully01]

All I see are two teams that IMO we have a great chance of beating. I don't think either team is better then us and Arkansas is just plain terrible.

[Political Hack]

this game is like watching two short buses in a demolition derby.

Arkansas is terrible and OM isn't much better.

[ShotgunDawg]

Arkansas' offense is anemic. I'm not sure what they are trying to do.

It's like they are trying to run Bama's offense with no talent.

[Political Hack]

if they'd just run the damn ball they'd be a lot better. their passing game is God awful.

[ShotgunDawg]

All you have to do against OM is jam their receivers and take the quick pass, and cover their RBs out of the back field.

Wallace doesn't have the arm to consistently to beat you over the top.

[ShotgunDawg]

By the way, OM's offensive line is brutal at pass blocking. If Wallace doesn't throw a hot pass, he gets rapped.

[RougeDawg]

Is it just me, or does it look like it's taking everything Wallace has just to get the ball out in the flats? Every pass other than the flats is a lob. Why are defenses even defending anything 20 yards down the field? His arm is garbage. Why can't defensive coaches figure it out and play tight to the line?

Exactly, furthermore, OM's offensive line can't block long enough to throw a pass over 20 yards.

[Political Hack]

his arm is garbage. if our DL get their hands up in passing lanes, LBs spy him, and we can play press coverage with a little cover two they won't be able to convert a lot of first downs. just have to tackle on the outside and let the DTs and Lbs handle the dives.

[MarketingBully01]

Yep, Wallace isn't going to stretch the field. The blueprint is out there to stop them ala what Auburn and Alabama did. Their defense isn't good either. As I have said many times. Arkansas is just plain terrible.

And as bad as Ark is, their d-line is in the backfield every time Wallace drops back.

[Political Hack]

they haven't thrown a pass on this drive and are ramming it down their throat. they know what's common and can't stop it... until Arkansas gets a damn penalty of course.

[ShotgunDawg]

The one thing OM does much better than us is operate in space. OM's skill players have speed and agility. If you keep their players out of space, which is possible due to the limitations of their QB and O-line, OM becomes very un-demensional.

[ShotgunDawg]

BOOM!!! TD biaaatchesszzz

[Thick]

That drive by Arky, is exactly what we can do with 3 big backs and a hard nosed QB.

[RougeDawg]

I'm still questioning how in the **** they ever beat LSU, or anybody for that matter, with this shit offense and defense. They actually look worse than we do on both sides of the ball. Gives me hope.

[ShotgunDawg]

Again, cover OM's RBs out of the backfield. It's all they do

[War Machine Dawg]

Shhhh!!!! You can't say that shit around here. Don't you know the Almighty Freezus and the Choir Bearz have passed us in everything? Fire Mullen!!!!!

[Political Hack]

that was a good drive although Arkansas gave up a big 3rd down they shouldn't have.

they just ran 42 plays in the half. That's a lot.

[ShotgunDawg]

Wallace throws like a junior high QB. Ugh it's ugly

[ShotgunDawg]

If Arkansas made the slightest defensive adjustments at halftime, they will win this game. I just don't see how OM can sustain an offense in which they don't have a power running game and the QB can't throw the ball 20 yards.

Doesn't add up

[MarketingBully01]

Arkansas pulls within three. And the best thing about this is that we still have both these teams left on our schedule.

[msstate7]

Dumb trick play

[CadaverDawg]

Arkansas just blew a great opportunity with a dumb trick play call.

[CadaverDawg]

Dumb trick play

Beat me to it. How stupid was that call.

[messageboardsuperhero]

What in the hell was Beliema thinking on that trick play? You were running it down their damn throat- keep doing it until they stop you.

Beyond stupid.

[messageboardsuperhero]

Shit, we all had the same idea at the exact same time.

[ShotgunDawg]

It was a dumb play call, but as long Ark doesn't turn it over, I think they win this game.

[ShotgunDawg]

OM just got away with the worst holding call I've ever seen. WOW

[ShotgunDawg]

How in the world do you fall for that crap. Wow Arkansas

[CadaverDawg]

apparently Bo's arm isn't as bad as some say

[msstate7]

So much for Bo can't throw deep. Nice pass

[msstate7]

apparently Bo's arm isn't as bad as some say

Yep

[messageboardsuperhero]

Deep lobs like that really don't take that much arm strength. I'm talking more about the 20-25 yd. bullets that you have to fit into windows.

[ShotgunDawg]

Check that, Arkansas's defense is terrible. Absolutely awful. They aren't even covering guys.

Gotcha. He threw a beautiful pass there though

[hate da bears]

Their defense is pathetic, Ole Bears are not that good. Egg Bowl game should be a good one this year.
