Yes his -1 yards rushing kept beating us. All those rushing yards were killing us. Come on man.

He didn't say he killed us. He said the option did, which it did. Why keep it when you can hand it to the RB for 15 yards every time. The option will be seen in bunches come the KY game. Everyone that watched the USCjr game knows that UT is vulnerable to the option. We just struggle containing the edge on option plays.

He ran for -1 yards. We apparently weren't doing too bad at stopping his runs. No DC who watched that game said "crap that guy is going to kill us running the ball if we don't come up with a plan for him. He's just too fast."

Just because our D players weren't smart enough to stay on the RB doesn't make Thompson fast enough to be a DT.

Rodgers runs for 250 or so, Thompson has run for -22. They aren't the same runners.

We also kept sacking him. I do think Thompson is a Pocket Passer. There's a difference between a Pocket Passer who can run and a Scrambler. Dual Threat is one of the dumbest terms in football because 80% of college QBs are dual threat technically.

Thompson not so much, KY's QB, yea he'll run on us. Everyone thinks that game is going to be a blow out, but I just don't see it. One, Dobbs isn't going to play as good as he did at USCjr. It's very unfair to him to even expect him to perform that good again. So, our defense has to step up or we are going to be in a score fest with KY. I think Dobbs is going to have to win us the game again next week with his feet, and I think it'll be a little harder than it was against USCjr.

If safties, nickels, and LB's are not only watching the QB to see where he's gonna throw but also looking for cue's in his body language that he's gonna run...or there's a spy assigned to him, then you have yourself a dual threat QB. Burger, you may attempt to argue this but it's out of pure stubborn pride, but have at it.

Is either one of our two committed QBs recruiting like some other of our commits? Seems like I've seen some stuff, but if I were an incoming QB, I'd be trying to recruit like crazy for my future.

Did you actually watch the game? He pitched on the speed option all but the last time. The only time he kept it he was stopped for a loss and it was never run again.

And the Aaron Rodgers thing...yikes

Posters on Volnation share some wild, crazy opinions sometimes. So out-there that they don't seem any logical person could come up with it. Burger's argument right now about what defines a DT QB is not the worst all time, but it is up towards the top of the list. So dumb it's hilarious.

It doesn't matter how many runs they call. Dobbs makes sure there is not any pass possible before he runs it. A dual threat guy has the tendency to run as soon as the play develops.

Painting with a broad brush there. And that's not what dual threat means anyway, just means a guy is a threat as a runner and a passer. Some DT QBs may do that but not all of them and it definitely doesn't mean that you have to do that to be considered a DT. Russell Wilson doesn't do that at all and Id say he's the best dual threat QB in the game right now.

Someone should let the coaches know that so that stop calling so many runs for him then.

DT guys run more than pass in most cases. Dobbs will never have more running plays than passing plays. He won't be able to run it 20and times every game. SCar has struggled all yr with running QB's as has Saban since being at Ala. Eventually teams will start leaving a spy on him and those long runs wont always be there. Exactly why its important to continue getting better at throwing the ball and our RB's being successful as well. Defense's caught on to Marshall at AU and he had to learn how to be a passer.

Wilson is a pass first guy. No QB that is a run first QB will ever make it a season in the pro's. Look at Vick, RG3 and McNabb. Having that running first mentality will assure you that you miss a lot of games and are on the sidelines and become best friends with trainers.

Scar was first game in awhile where I thougjt Bajakian saw and exploited the opponents weakness even if deviated from his typical offense.

That's not true. Dual threat isn't a term for just one type of running QB. Some guys may look to run more than they pass and others may look to run just when things break down. All that it means is that a guy is a threat to run as well as pass, hence the term dual threat, with dual being the main word there. He doesn't have to be someone who looks to run all of the time to be a dual threat QB. And you don't have to run the option to be a DT QB. I don't know where you guys are getting this stuff. You just have to be a threat to take off and run at any point to be considered a dual threat. Which is why guys like Russell Wilson, Colin Kaepernick, and even Andrew Luck (whose speed and athleticism are very underrated imo) could be considered Dual Threats bc they can take off and run when things break down whereas guys like Manning and Brady are not.

If that was the case Dobbs would have been considered and ranked as a DT QB and he wasn't
, plain and simple.

Ahh, so ranking services and their evaluators, like rivals.com, set the standard on what is and who is a dual threat QB? That is this entire argument in a nutshell. Posters are fighting about the definition of something that does not have a universal, consistent denotation. I do think the argument that Dobbs is not a DT because he was not listed as one on the recruiting websites is beyond ignorant. If his play does not display what is meant when people use the term Dual-Threat then I have no idea what it would mean? If Dobbs is not a DT QB then I guess the definition of DT is a RB that plays QB and runs the ball all the time. Oh wait, that would be one-dimensional and not fit the definition of the word 'dual'.......

It's about to go full blown Football Forum up in here. What the heck does it matter what he is classified? He didn't run much in high school.....he's running now and winning us games (hopefully). We will gripe about just about anything around here. I'm sure you can find 1 Dobbs thread or 100 over in the FF and debate whether or not he is a Dual Threat.

The Rockets hounded Boerne’s standout quarterback Quinten Dormady and smothered Greyhound receivers in the secondary all night.

...Dormady, a University of Tennessee commit, threw for 230 yards and two* touchdowns, but he needed 43 attempts to get there. He was also picked off twice during a stretch in the first half in which he missed 10 straight throws.

Dormady was the Greyhounds’ leading rusher as well with only 14 yards on 12 carries.

“The plan was to make him uncomfortable, and our guys did that,” Allison said.
Robinson sniffs out Boerne’s tactics, shuts down air attack, 45-14
