November 1, 200916 yr As a rule you generally dont win when the other team rolls 500 total yards on you. They came in with a good game plan against Cobb and executed. Cobb still had decent numbers but they contained the big play.
November 1, 200916 yr I mean I guess you could blame the game on Newton but the UK D got ran all over.
November 1, 200916 yr I mean I guess you could blame the game on Newton but the UK D got ran all over. How would you blame it on Newton? They went conservative and really didn't let him do much until the last drive.
November 1, 200916 yr Author Does nobody else believe that Cobb was injured, and only used as a decoy?
November 1, 200916 yr How so? Pretty easy, they got no points in the redzone and MSU took 5 minutes off the clock. Watch the replay, he had a wide open WR in standing in the end zone too. I think the kid is going to be good, but he cost them tonight. Actually, conservative playcalling and the rush defense cost them. Worse case scenerio you throw that ball away.

November 1, 200916 yr Give me a break. One play, huh? It's never one play, but that was the turning point. Dixon getting 250 yards didn't help matters too much either.
November 1, 200916 yr Im sorry guys and I may get beat up over this but I dont see how you can blame this game on Newton. Our Offense as a whole barely played well enough to win which is what weve done all year regardles of whick QB plays. Our defense got humiliated and steam rolled. We got lucky on their last drive the they quit giving to Dixon between the tackles because we would not have got the ball back.
November 1, 200916 yr Does nobody else believe that Cobb was injured, and only used as a decoy? Good question listening to Brooks postgame soon maybe he will talk about how Cobb didn't get the ball.

Well, the "wide open" thing is tough to hang on him since he had to scramble to even get time to throw. He cost them 3 points (and we're assuming ol' Lonesome Lones would have actually made it so....) Stupid pass, no question. In no way did it cost them the game.

At that point, your down 7 inside the 10 with a wide open WR in the end zone. You get nothing, lose time and field position. Big momentum swing.
