FOOTBALL QUICK 1ST QUARTER THOUGHTS ON MIZZOU AT FLORIDA

QUICK 1ST QUARTER THOUGHTS AT FLORIDA

Starters for offense
OL: Javon Foster, Xavier Delgado, Connor Tollison, Mitchell Walters, Connor Wood
TE: Tyler Stephens
WR:Tauskie Dove, Cooper
RB: Nathaniel Peat, Cody Schrader
QB: Brady Cook

Starters for defense
DL: Isaiah McGuire, Jayden Jernigan, Kristian Williams, Trajan Jeffcoat
LB: Ty'Ron "Lil Hop" Hopper, Dameon Wilson
DB: Ennis Rakestraw, Martez Manuel, Jaylon Carlies, Joseph Charleston, Dreyden Norwood

First Series for offense: The flats seem open but Florida is closing the distance quick it seems. Dom Lovett seems to be okay with that lower leg injury. Burden came off the field slow after that six-yard reception. Walked off the field gingerly. I don’t know if I like that third-down call… A QB option. That singleback pistol formation never works for them in short yardage on third and fourth down it seems to me.

First Series for defense: Nice PBU by Rakestraw he almost picked that off. I like that FS blitz with Jaylon Carlies putting pressure on Richardson on third down (the first time I remember seeing that from MIZ this season).

Second Series for offense: Burden is out here for this drive.* Nice pass to Mookie Cooper for a gain of 22. Holding on Tollison (story of the season). So, instead of a nice five or six-yard gain for Brady Cook on first down, it’s 1st and 20. These will add up and are momentum killers. Florida’s poor run defense I told yall about…not looking too bad out here now.

Second Series for defense: Run defense so far for MIZ has been solid on this top 23-ranked running offense. Florida sold on third down by dropping that pass on what may have been a first down. They settle for a 37-yard FG. MIZ defense holds up BUT can they get help on the flipside? MIZ 0, UF 3

Third Series for offense: Burden dropped that pass and he should’ve caught it but it was behind him. Nate Peat breaks open a nice run for 19 yards and then gets TFL’d on the next play. Bad run blocking vs. Bad run defense is today’s game. Brady Cook pick-six. This play had no chance. DB jumped the route. Now, it did seem like his WR got picked off on the play by another defensive back so the timing was off. MIZ 0, UF 10

Fourth Series for offense: Peat is starting to get the run game going.

End of 1st: MIZ 0, UF 10

FOOTBALL SEC quarterbacks and the deep ball

Have heard a lot of "how come we never throw downfield" and "the offense is too conservative" this year. Here are the number of times each QB in the SEC has thrown a ball 20 yards or more downfield. The first number is 20+ yard throws, second number is attempts, third number is the percentage of passes thrown at least 20 yards


Jaxson Dart 28 of 123 (22.75%)
Anthony Richardson 28 of 147 (19.04)
Brady Cook 28 of 168 (16.67)
Hendon Hooker 22 of 132 (16.67)
AJ Swann/Mike Wright 20 of 156 (12.82)
Bryce Young 20 of 152 (13.16)
Will Levis 19 of 169 (11.24)
Stetson Bennett 19 of 174 (10.9)
Spencer Rattler 19 of 175 (10.86)
Will Rogers 16 of 248 (6.45)
Max Johnson/Haynes King 16 of 165 (9.70)
Robby Ashford 14 of 107 (13.08)
KJ Jefferson 13 of 147 (8.84)
Jayden Daniels 10 of 179 (5.59)

So Brady Cook has thrown more as many deep balls as any quarterback in the conference. Only Jaxson Dart and Anthony Richardson have thrown a higher percentage of passes 20 yards or farther.

FOOTBALL SEC Nation Jayden Daniels analysis

Rodgers went over Daniels missing obvious pre snap read of the how the defense was aligned. One I'm not sure Daniels would be doing any better here. Two Cook seems to be having similar troubles with people saying hes not finding the open guy.

Alot of that is determined presnap and it seems cook locks on to his favorites or who the play is designed for rather than what the defense is giving him. That said he played better up until the last series last game.

A prayer

Please direct this to the deity of your choice…
Oh Great( insert deity), grant us this day, Justice.
Allow, for just one day for those who have long suffered to relish in the struggle of those who cheat and lie…
Allow thee the FBI to today, serve upon those heinous scum in Lawrence Kansas … a warrant for the arrest of those who clearly, cheat lie and steal in the furtherance of their basketball program.
PS… please have said warrant served on live tv during ESPN game day telecast…in color.. with close ups…long pan shots of perp walks etc. etc.

FOOTBALL RECRUITING Thoughts from Cahokia/Mt. Vernon

Login to view embedded media
A wild game tonight, Cahokia completes around a 50-yard TD pass with 13.7 second remaining in regulation to tie the game and send it to overtime. They stop Mt. Vernon on offense and win it on a 5-yard TD QB rollout. DeLoach had a relatively quiet night overall. He recorded a couple of tackles and was only targeted about three times on offense, a couple of those throws were way off and DeLoach drew a PI on one pass attempt. Despite a lackluster night in the stat book, the Mizzou commit was a physical blocker in Cahokia's running game and a leader on defense. DeLoach told he's been getting a lot of good feedback on his film from Missouri assistant Al Pogue and head coach Eli Drinkwitz. He told me he's also very close with fellow Missouri commit Jamal Roberts. He visited for the La Tech game and is hoping to return for a couple of more games this season.

FOOTBALL RECRUITING

Some 2023 target notes

- There is some Ole Miss buzz surrounding 4-star safety Marvin Burks after he made a return trip to Oxford this past weekend. The Rebels were one of the schools to get an official visit from Burks during the month of June, the other being Texas A&M and Missouri. Burks also made a return trip to Missouri for their opener against Louisiana Tech, that visit also created a good amount of buzz towards the Tigers as well. So, we'll see how the latest post-visit chatter will play out.

- Three-star defensive end Taje McCoy and three-star cornerback Phillip Roche were both targets that were expected to be on campus over the weekend for the Georgia game, but weren't able to make it.

For McCoy, he is one of Missouri's most recent 2023 offers, he told us that he's hearing a lot from the staff right now and is planning to visit Missouri after his senior season is over.

While Roche wasn't able to make it for the Georgia game, he has already taken in a game at Missouri when the Tigers defeated Abilene Christian earlier this season. The Merrellville, Indiana native said he's in constant contact with defensive coordinator Blake Baker and is planning to get back to CoMo again this season.

- Illinois linebacker commit Antwon Hayden was back at Missouri on Saturday for the Georgia game. The three-star said the "atmosphere stood out all the way" in terms of his gameday experience. He also said his relationship with Mizzou coaches is "going good" and that he plans to visit other schools during the fall. Illinois will get a return visit this weekend for their game against Iowa. Mississippi State is another school that is expressing a lot interest in Hayden.

- Three-star OL Brandon Solis picked up an offer from Missouri back in March. He visited CoMo for a spring practice and returned this past weekend for the Georgia game. Offensive line is one position of need for Missouri moving forward in the 2023 class and Solis is a name to keep an eye on. He's already taken summer officials to Boston College and Cincinnati. Mississippi State, TCU, Indiana, and Florida State are other schools involved.

- Staying with the OL theme, Missouri extended a new 2023 offer to Gretna (Neb.) product Mason Goldman earlier this week. The three-star had been talking to Missouri assistant Erik Link for quite a while before the offer. Goldman said he's very interested in Missouri and looking to visit as soon as possible. Kansas, Memphis, and Arizona State are his other notable offers right now. He's also hearing from Iowa, Nebraska, K-State, Iowa State, and Vanderbilt.

- After taking a June official with Missouri, three-star cornerback Jyaire Hill was back on campus for the Georgia game. Always a good sign when one of your top targets in the class returns for gameday trip. It seems Illinois and Michigan are the other teams in contention for Hill, but with his latest trip to CoMo, it seems Missouri is a real contender moving forward.

- Samuel M'Pemba was back on campus for the Georgia game. While Missouri isn't listed among his Top 4, if a five-star with St. Louis ties wants to visit, you don't say no. Ironically, Georgia is currently considered the favorite to land the IMG Academy product. M'Pemba has official visits scheduled with Georgia, LSU, Miami, and Tennessee throughout the month of November.

Missouri also hosted multiple underclassmen last weekend, we've got updates on some of those below
