That was impressive. I would like to find Pasqualoni and give him one of Fishys famous punches to the throat. I feel like Don Corleone when he looks at Sonny on the gurney and says to the funeral guy "Look what they've done to my boy".

I'll start blaming Pasqualoni again once Diaco shows he knows what the hell he's doing out there.

That was 100 % Levy's fault. Was obvious he had outside man.
but Pudge is right, Whitmer is impossible to block for. I've been saying this forever he is the tackles worst nightmare. They are blocking to form a pocket he rolls out, the Tackle can't see where he wents the end simply peels off the tackle and chases Whitmer down. This is nothing new. It was Cochran's main ability and made the line look better doesn't posses it.

Makes you wonder why UConn doesn't let Whitmer audible when the called play is obviously going to blow up.
yeah.. he should audible to one of the plays we can block. :)

No it absolutely was not.

This team has been scouted now.

No LT anywhere is expected the guard the wide [art of the field. The opposing coaches know that UConn poses absolutely no threat from the pocket.

I haven't seen a DE try an inside move in ages. Why? Because they don't have to.

You are kidding me. LT (and rt) are often called to take outside man.

You can argue they shouldn't have called that protection because Levy has trouble blocking man up, but that was 100% missed block.

This is also true about whitmer. He will not step into the pocket, and if his first read is covered he panics.

They are called to take the outside man outside.

That's his job. His QB is running right into the pressure. Crazy.

Stick with Boyle. At least he isn't dropping back 20 yds, and he knew to get rid of it cause he felt the pressue.

How bad must our backup offensive lineman be if the starters are the best we have?

Except he didn't take his man outside. The man ran right by him while keeping tight to Whitmer's outside shoulder. Levy did not touch him.

We are in agreement on Whitmer's refusal to step into a pocket. On that play, there was no pocket because Levy whiffed.

A LT is never going to block a DE that runs a 4.75 40 as he takes a straight path upfield. He's guarding his inside and he weighs 290 pounds.

All I know is Carpetbagger Randy did not leave the team like this

I totally agree Pasqualoni was awful. My fear right now is that we have much bigger problems than the fact Pasqualoni gutted this program.

If he ran straight up field, he would have taken himself out of play. He didn't run straight up the field.

Our defense is good to very good. They simply get no help on offense and get worn down. there are playmakers all over the defense.
