Congrats to Texas.......they have 1 guy to thank and that's Vince Young......the guy beat SC by himself (although sc did a nice job of poor play calling, poor tackling, poor schemes, and bonehead moves).......WHAT A PERFORMANCE.....Vince Young was truly amazing......but i didnt see any of the changes scematically that i expected from carroll.....i expected more corner blitzes, more speed guys out there (db's), more pressure on him, and better tackling.......none of which happened.
The blowout for SC was there for the taking in the 1q, but as soon as sc missed the bomb on the wr pass, ran a qb sneak on 4th down, threw a pick in the endzone, and bush tried to latteral to a fb on the 15.....i knew this game would be tight all the way thru.
I also can't understand why lendale white was not fed the ball the entire 1h........it's like sc WANTED to force feed bush the ball......white was the key, texas couldnt stop him....yet sc NEVER went to him twice in a row until late in the 4th quarter.......white would have done three things 1) kept young off the field 2) gained 6-7 yards a pop 3) opened up the play action deep ball.......sc receivers were rarely open deep down the field and i believe they would have been had sc committed to white early and often.
For those who continue to rip the sc defense.......you can say the same thing about the texas defense....both got shredded but vastly superior offenses.....however anybody who watched sc this year would tell you that their defense was down compared to the past few years (despite being injured, the talent level was young and below the past few years).......ok, maybe not scott.
One final thing.....VY would be stupid to NOT come out this year....it's clear that his stock is at an all time high and would likely be picked in the top three......plus......while he still cant throw the deep ball and has poor mechanics.....he's too good for college football.......go get the money!
