Svoboda Has Wasted At Least 10 Time Outs This Season

by alcor805 on Oct 21, 2006 5:48 PM PDT

I counted 4 today because Svoboda didn't have a play call sent in on time(Including all 3 in the second half). I saw Cowan signal the sidelines to hurry up with the call, at least 8-10 times today. We called time out on a short yardage play, only to commit a false start penalty.

I'm left with the impression Notre Dame would only be the 3rd or 4th best team in the Pac-10. And we lost to them. FUCK!

Did you see when the camera's focused on BO in the third, he was yelling at the coaches frantically. It looked like he yelled, "get the play", or "hurry the play". Sure enough play comes in way late and UCLA burns another TO.
Does anyone else get sick of the announcers coaching from the booth better than the bruins coaches?

Coaching is a Full Time Job

I wonder if the Ucla coaches have other jobs and work for the football team in their spare time. The offense should be at the line with at least 12 to 13 seconds on the play clock. This will give the qb time to assess the defense and audible if need be and it will keep defenses honest with the snap count. How many times did we see ND time the snap count and get in the backfield? We either having to call TOs or we are rushing to get plays off b4 a delay. The OC should know the playback like the back of his hand and be calling plays in immediately.
