Ep 26.6: 48-20 ASU Breakdown! KJ Edwards RB1? + Reed's Mechanics
Matt Folmar and Seth Drennan are joined by CoastAg to break down Texas A&M’s 48-20 victory over Arizona State. The Amigos jump straight into the film room to break down what actually happened on the field versus what the box score shows. The crew analyzes Marcel Reed's dropback depth, why the offense shifted from zone to gap schemes in the second half, and why freshman tailback KJ Edwards needs early snaps. On defense, CoastAg breaks down how Mike Elko completely hijacked Kenny Dillingham's slow-mesh RPO by dictating the mesh point, triggering Julio Humphrey’s pick-six, and unleashing linebacker Noah Mikhail and the front seven. ⏱️ Episode Chapters / Timestamps 00:00 - Intro & Celebrating 11,000 Views! 01:58 - Bo’s Flag Football House Call 03:36 - The Tres Amigos Philosophy: Coaching Perspective & Lagging Indicators 07:13 - Arizona State Overview: Reed's Mechanics & Play-Action Solution 10:39 - The Running Back Room: Why KJ Edwards Needs Early Snaps 15:33 - Marcel Reed Mechanics: Deep Drops vs. Traditional Play-Action 18:38 - CoastAg’s Rant: Atrocious Perimeter Receiver Blocking 26:41 - O-Line Breakdown: Finding the "Nickel" & Fixing Puller Footwork 33:09 - Missed Tackles Forced Rate: What the Data Says About A&M's RBs 41:25 - What to Fix This Week: Tunnel Screens & Pocket Depth 45:13 - Defensive Masterclass: How Elko Solved Dillingham’s RPO 52:45 - Scheme Breakdown: Attacking the Mesh Point for the Julio Humphrey Pick-Six 55:54 - Secondary & LB Depth: Noah Mikhail, Jordan Shaw & Physicality 58:04 - What Is Texas A&M's Offensive Identity? 59:40 - Outro & Gig 'em!
