Looks like we're making in game adjustments this season!!!!
The pass he made to the tight end for 6 yards told me something about his poise in the pocket. Threaded the needle. Good drive.SFASawmillGuy said:
That was a veteran pass by Vidlak. Stand in the pocket under pressure and throw an accurate pass!!!

2nd bad call.....punt and put them back in their end of field.
Have to disagree with you. I believe punting and pinning them deep would have been the right call. Just as I believe letting Campos have a FG try earlier on a fourth down would have been the smarter call. North Texas has to feel like they've taken back the game. A gift.SFASawmillGuy said:
I don't hate the 4th down call. It was the right call and should've been caught , but yes it was a huge gamble and did not pay off for us.
10-point swing. What could have been 6 point lead is now a 4-point deficit. That said, defense is playing well with the exception of 2-3 big plays and they can keep the game close...IF there are no more strategic blunders.Ljacks&Longnecks said:
Completely disagree. Terrible call that ruined our momentum and destroyed most of the good we did in 1st half .
Even their announcers said UNT had their heads down as if they were 2 or 3 TDs down because they weren't waxing us.
Yes he should have caught the ball but that play should not have been called.
Huge difference if we still held the lead at the half. If UNT comes out and smokes us in the 3rd quarter if will be a direct result of that idiotic move.

Am I being too severe in judging that Carthel is an impressive recruiter and in getting his team ready, but a very poor game-time tactician?
I'll concede you that, MasterAxe. Frustration.MasterAxe said:65tosspowertrap said:

"Very poor" is a pretty bold conclusion.
That said, we do have some head scratching moments/coaching decisions every game

Our inability (or refusal) to be able to lineup, under center, and just run the ball for 2 yards is beyond frustrating.
