Really watching the Offense a lot, so expect more notes and input on the offensive side of the ball.

1st Quarter
Offense
First drive was 4 wide until 2nd and goal- result TD. Quick routes with two seam routes to Presley. Loved the play calls, moved up tempo and a lot of out and crossing routes.

Second drive - 2 CBBs - Result 3 and out

Third drive - Started out in 4 wide (end of quarter)

Defense
Malcolm Rodriquez and Kamar Farrar is all over the place. Plenty of players flying to the football.
Jubbard Muhammad is playing a lot
DLine getting some good push
Shelly (Miss State QB) Did a fantastic job on RPO reads.

2nd Quarter
(Continued 3rd series)Came out the start the 2nd quarter in 4 wide, with Warren in the backfield and LD Brown out in the slot
Shane overthrew Presley by about 7 yards. He hits Presley in stride that’s 6.
Shane hit Rashad Owens on a 5 in out and Owens got about 20 yards after catch.
Went two 2RB set and hit Warren on a flats route (loved the set)
Shane underthrew Martin on a jump ball in the endzone for 6 (PI called)
Ended the drive in 2 CBB sets and struggled to rush (no push from the line) Warren for 6 on a 2 yard carry.

Defense
1 play - Fumble by Shelly recovered by Lacy

4th series
Started out in a 1 CBB set. Great protection by the OL, First play of the series Tay looked to roll his ankle.
Nice misdirection run by LD, even better seal by the OL. They set the edge and sealed it to perfection. Couldn't have executed it any better.

Defense
Went to a 3-3-5 defense. Quickly went back to a 4-3, brought a blitz to stuff the run. Great penetration by the DL and LBers.
Malcolmn with a gorgeous hip toss on their Center (LOL)
To many missed tackles by veteran players

Special Teams
Presley tried to Run North and south instead of East and West. I am sure Gundy told him to plant his feet and get upfield instead of trying to out run them around the corner.

5th Series
Starts out in a 1 CBB set and first play takes a deep shot to Jaden Bray. Ball was underthrown but Jaden Bray made a heck of a play and went up and got the ball. Second play another Post route by Jaden, he had a slight step on the defender and Shane floated it to much.
Ran a G/T trap and the hole was there but LD ran right into the back of the right side of the line. Play was flowing to the left *Facepalm*
Ran a nice RB screen, if Godvleske turns his head and puts a shoulder on the DB, its a big gain. But instead he whiffs the block and Warren gets hit for a 1 yard gain.
4th and 3 we throw a jump ball to Presley (Wasn't technically a JUMP BALL, Shane underthrown again. Presley had a 2 step on his defender. Have to put that in front of Presley and let him go get it and thats 6)

6th Series
Starts out in a 1CBB set. Nice reverse to Johnson, a little more patience by him this play is a 20+ yard gain.
Shanes early chemistry with Jaden Bray is a beautiful sight.
Shane reminds me alot of Rudolph, his outside shoulder throws on 5-10 yard outs are money.
Shane reminds me alot of Rudolph, tends to underthrow the go routes.
Shane missed a wide open Cassidy streaking down the field, instead overthrew Presley on a crossing route. Play was flowing right, Cassidy had a seam route flowing to the left. Great set up, horrible execution.
Pick - Shane overthrew Presley on a out route

3rd Quarter
Defense -
Mason Cobb killed a man. These young defenders look really good. I really like the Farrar and Cobb combo
Very nice CB blitz, barely missed the tackle but it was a great call.
Constant pressure on pass plays, Shelley has no time to go through his progressions.
Mcalister got lucky, he was badly beat on a slant, WR drops the ball. If he catches that he probably scores.
Tyren Irby with some great penetration. He has a great first step.

7th Series
Starts out in a 2 CBB set. First play was a dive up the middle with Jackson. Ran right into the OLs back. They didn't have any push on this series.
Tay Martin Jump ball, Martin breaks a little ankle tackle, he probably scores from 90 yards out.
Pass protection has been great all night so far.
Another deep post route to Martin (Overthrown)
Nice set up for a draw play, Jackson fumbles the ball *shakes head*

8th Series
Starts out in 4 wide.
First play go with another G/T trap and it looked like everyone except Missouri State defenders were running in sand.
2nd play went with a draw play. You could tell it was a draw from the get go, LD just sits by Shane and waits for the handoff, have to sell that better. Brandon Weeden saying, pretty predictable play by Oklahoma State.
3rd play - Went to a 2 RB set, was a nice play design but horrible execution. RBs were supposed to break out into the flats but got caught at the line of scrimmage in a traffic jam. First time MSU had great penetration all night.
3 and out

9th series
Starts out in 1CBB set. First play Godvleske gets blown up and LD gets hit quickly. The hole he wanted was there just was hit in the backfield before he could get started.
Second play, LD has a massive hole and instead of streaking outside he tries to cut it back inside. Gets a 8 yard gain but should have been 20+
3rd play, OL gets absolutely pushed off the line. LD just uses his speed to get to the edge. Holding call takes away the first down. Now its 3rd and 11. Clock expires

GRAPHIC ON THE SCREEN
FIRST 4 DRIVES: 3 TOUCHDOWNS
LAST 4 DRIVES: 2 PUNTS, 2 TURNOVERS


4th Quarter
Screen play - Blocked to perfection, Warren gets a 20 yard gain. However block in the back by Austin Jarrard late mitigates the play. Now 3rd and 21
Runs another screen play to Warren, gain of 12. Missouri States Defensive line is playing way more physical right now. Shane visibly frustrated with the play or play calling. Either way his demeanor isn't helping anything.

10th series
Great field position after dropped punt return. Starts on our 11 yard line. Starts out in 1 CBB set.
1st play. Hole was there LD Brown runs right into the back of the OL. Starting to become a theme here.
Goes to a 2 back set, sends Warren in motion, has Green in the endzone, hits him in stride Green has to be more aware of where he is. Should have been 6. Great protection.
Delay of game on the offense - Horrible awareness.
3rd and 12 lets bring in 2 CBBs and I-formation *ANOTHER DELAY OF GAME* Now 3rd and 17
Goes 4 wide, hits Tay Martin in the endzone. Goes to review, overturn due to bobbled coming down. 3 and out

Horrible series by Shane. You can't have those 2 delay of game penalties.

11th series

Starts 4 wide - Play was there but got batted down at the line of scrimmage. Second play gets a false start by Etienne. Goes to a 1 CBB set, hits Gren for a 14 yard gain. Goes to 2 CBB set and I-formation. GETS BLOWN UP IN THE BACKFIELD
Offense visibly frustrated with play calling and execution. 3 and out

3RD - 3 AND OUT IN A ROW BY THE OFFENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Defense getting worn down. Defended roughly 80+ plays this game.

Kickoff to LD Brown and he fumbles the football

LAST SERIES ON OFFENSE
Starts out in 1 CBB set 1:52 on the clock
First play run with LD for a nice gain. Good push by the OL
Second play *Weeden says obviously the ball stays on the ground here* Shane drops back and throws a deep ball the Green. *Weeden says, "Not sure what the logic is there but here we are"
