Tar Heels vs Canes game thread

[WoadBlue]

In the Spring game, Surratt, Elliott, and Byrd all looked roughly equal. Yet Fedora decided that tyhe LSU pice of crap would come in and start, and Surratt would be #2. And Eliliott and Byrd would have no chance to play unless injury opened a door.

Elliott looks to be at least as good an all around QB as Surratt, and that without hardly any practice even with the 2nd team.

Fedora doesn't know chicken shite about QBs.

Good news after one quarter 3-0 good guys. Bad news leaving points on the field.

 

[MWHeels]

Nice third down conversion.

 

[WoadBlue]

If Elliott were given a half chance by that fool Fedora and his awful OC, he would show much better than Surratt.

 

[sctarheel30]

Oline must do a better job of blocking

 

[MWHeels]

Another first down and now in red zone. Come on, guys. Get a TD!

 

[sctarheel30]

Good run by Elliot

 

[WoadBlue]

So, now I want to know how much better Byrd is than Harris.

3rd and 18 and we run a screen to the short side. Followed by a fake punt.

Putting your team in position to win is not a strong suit of this staff. (Sadly that’s the basis for any coaching success)

 

[WoadBlue]

I like the fake even though it was too far to work. A coffin corner punt would have been better, but I doubt that was possible either.

Play calling. It aint a strength for us under Fedora.

 

[sctarheel30]

Threw it way too short on the fake fg. Looked to have another receiver open further down the field.

 

[WoadBlue]

Rozier is off still

Good open field tackle by Dorn.

 

[WoadBlue]

That is a bad spot - gave it to Miami.

 

[WoadBlue]

At least it is not a 1st down, but it should have been at least 9-10 inches back.

 

[WoadBlue]

Our D looks like a well coached, tough unit. They are good enough for the team to win 8 games.

 

[MWHeels]

Big stop on 3rd down.

 

[uncboy10]

2018 could be a lot better than many will be expecting if we can figure out the offensive woes and keep guys healthy next year.

Almost everyone on this defense will be coming back next year.

 

[WoadBlue]

Elliott is a better QB than Surratt.

Fedora is a damned fool.

 

[MWHeels]

Great catch!

 

[WoadBlue]

What a catch by Corrales!

 

[WoadBlue]

Surratt isn't nearly as good as Elliott.

I bet Byrd is also at least as good as Surratt.

 

[MWHeels]

Seems like the offense can drive down the field but then stalls at or near the red zone. 6-0 though.

 

[sctarheel30]

Surratt isn't nearly as good as Elliott.

I bet Byrd is also at least as good as Surratt.

I would bet so too on Byrd

 

[WoadBlue]

Jones hits from 45.

6-0 Tar Heels

 

[sctarheel30]

Too many chances to score seven and settling for three

 

[WoadBlue]

Nice play by Holcomb.

 

[WoadBlue]

It took a near fluke for the Canes to get in the end zone. We were a quarter of a step away from batting that ball down.

 

[sctarheel30]

Terrible tackling

Miami scores a td

 

[Archer2]

Elliott is a better QB than Surratt.

The jury is still out but it sure appears that he could be.

Fedora is a damned fool.

On that we agree. It's a shame we got so deep twice and only came away with 3 points.

 

[WoadBlue]

The D steps up big again.

 

[sctarheel30]

D playing ok today

 

[WoadBlue]

The jury is still out but it sure appears that he could be.

On that we agree. It's a shame we got so deep twice and only came away with 3 points.

WE need a power running RB who weighs at least 220.

 

[WoadBlue]

Great pass by Elliott and route by Johnson.

Bonehead penalty.

 

[sctarheel30]

Stupid play by roscoe Johnson

 

[uncboy10]

Moron.

Elliott looks great though.

 

[sctarheel30]

At least we're in the game still

 

[WoadBlue]

Well, that is a perfect example of the difference between Richt and Fedora. Richt can regroup at halftime and come back with some that can be devastating. Fedora is about doing the same thing the same way, because he knows it will work eventually.

 

[WoadBlue]

Now we face major pressure.

 

[WoadBlue]

Miami - rightly - has no respect for Brown as a blocker.

Any time in a 1 back offense you pass and the RB is not a receiver, if he is not a very good blocker, he is a major liability.

Our coaches seem not to care much about such fundamentals.
