Im actually ok with the call since they're up by 7. It sucks that they didnt get it though.
Yep. Don't risk it on a short condensed field and go up 2 scores. Some of the runs have broken through. Defense is playing good enough

Can we please stop running the ball?

Im rooting for presnap penalties now so we HAVE to throw.
You aren't running on Texas. Not even near the DL.

We are going to lose this game and it will be the fault of our OC for running an avg RB while he has an all everything QB.

Good lord. We're up by ten halfway through the 3rd quarter against the #3 team in the country. I can't imagine how anyone could possibly feel so negatively about this game so far. They're playing well and winning.

You go up 2 scores you make it hard for them to score, because they won't be able to run as often.
You have the best passing offense in CFB. Likely the best QB in football.
Their QB is iffy, at best. Their RB is solid.
Your RB would be a 2nd string RB in the SEC.
The strength of Texas is the DL and run defense. The weakness is pass defense.

Running the ball keeps Texas in the game.

Yet they went up 10 and defense got a stop. Seems like they are playing smart and keeping the defense honest. Part of the reason they are so good at passing is because they keep defenses honest

The Huskies are up by ten over one of the best teams in the country and they have the ball. If you don't think Longhorn fans are sweating bullets...

Texas shut out in the 3rd.
Penix masterpiece so far, draft that man.

I don't know if it was that much, but it was a lot. They're very clearly trying to shorten the game at this point and it's working so far.

No. Running the ball eats the clock. Sarkisian knows that he only has so many possessions left. What we need to do is score 7 on this drive and Texas' chances are very low.

UW basically had the ball the entire third quarter.

Relax

That's exactly what they are doing and it's working.
