I just watched the play that AJ hurt their quarterback. If AJ doesn’t make that play, Pittman is scoring a TD. Pittman put his hand up to tell Slovis how wide open he was. AJ totally changed the game. That is what the great ones do.
After the game, Fleck said his QB better be in concussion protocol. Morgan was pleading to come back in. We all saw Fleck coaching him to stay down.
I feel this was total bush league. You see this kind of coaching strategy in an 11 year old flag football league....not Big Ten Conference.
I can’t imagine Minnesota is going to keep playing at this level. That was their first time being in the spotlight in a decade. Hard to come back down from a win like that. And the Hawks are angry with how they played against Wisconsin.
Being in the Kinnick environment and playing flat...
Speaking of our defense, I am wondering if Michigan will give less attention to Epenesa this week. I wouldn’t advise it...actually I think it would be stupid.
Although he only has 1 sack for the year, offenses are totally afraid of AJ and are game planning him. This has to be affecting...
Rutgers has the worst stadium in America. I attended the Hawk game a few years ago. I can’t imagine a recruit not thinking what I was thinking...that it is a dump.
Rutgers will only attract coaches that need a head coaching job...like Schiano.
The KF press conference was a joke but predictable. How many times has he been out coached by Fitz? PF’s halftime adjustments were the difference in the second half. Wish KF would stop saying he’s seeing good things out there. I mostly saw lack of execution most of the afternoon.
4th and 1 penalty....Neimann misses tackle in OT...bad 3rd down call in OT...dropped pass to end game. We didn’t deserve to win even though we clearly were the better team.
Here's a question I would ask Kirk if I was allowed in his post game press conference...
Kirk, what is Brian's 1st down play calling philosophy? Because the run play to short side of the field continues to put us in 2nd and 12 each time.
KF talks about needing to do a better job at winning the field position battle. Here's my suggestion...get MV to catch punts and get a new punter. There has to be somebody on our UI soccer team that can kick it farther than 29 yards each time.
How many times does Brian call a running play on 1st down to the short side of the field? Everyone knows it's coming. We all know the definition of insanity = doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
MCaffery's teams always play their best basketball in January. I think Hawks keep rolling tonight and beat NW. Now for games in February...I'm not as confident.
