    Hawks At Weasels Game Thread Because TK Forgot

    AJE was able to turn the corner on that play, but ball came out quick

    Minny's completed about 10 quick slants and short posts today

    We have shown that we want to do more out of the gun this year than in prior years, but Minnesota lines up almost exclusively in the gun. Almost impossible to do any RPO stuff from under center, especially if you want to make it a significant part of your offense.

    Morning B1G Games thread OSU v. Maryland, Penn State v. Minnesota, Purdue v. Northwestern

    Clifford has shown an impressive ability to climb the pocket as needed throughout this game.

    Are the Golden (Shower) Gophers for real?

    I met him at a coaching clinic quite a few years ago, when he was coaching WRs at Northern Illinois. It's definitely not just schtick. The guy is legit passionate about football, self-aware enough to know that he is not for everybody, and has turned into a pretty good header.

    Man...I feel like that is at least 3 or 4 critical drops PSU receivers have had in big spots today.

    Minny's completed about 10 quick slants and short posts today

    They have been engaging the LBs using play-action and RPOs, creating quick passing lanes they are taking advantage of.

    I thought the score was 14-0 when they did that, but they are obviously up by a ton now.

    2 TD game now because of Franklin chasing points after last PSU touchdown.

    Bateman looks like he will be a really good one; Tyler Johnson is already a grown-ass man.

    2 badly underthrown balls by Clifford = 2 interceptions by Winfield killing good-looking drives for PSU

    Jesus...PSU gotta adjust something. Minny tearing them up on the RPO/play action stuff.

    Flop of the year in Big Ten

    You clearly seem to take all of this a little more personally and fanatical than I do. To each their own, I guess...have a good day.

    Flop of the year in Big Ten

    No need to apologize...you don't see it my way and that's fine. It's clear you don't like NW/Fitzgerald because he doesn't like Iowa and I'm not going to try to change your mind. But I do think he's a good coach, working under the most stringent enrollment guidelines in the B1G (I think), and...

    Iowa 2-Deep for Wisconsin

    Certainly that is part of what; what I was alluding to is that if he's not in the right spot, he's not going to make the play anyway and it's a moot point. But we traditionally play Wisconsin tough, most likely because it's the closest thing we see to our offense all year, and I'm hoping all...

    Iowa 2-Deep for Wisconsin

    Oh I know...he looked ROUGH in that PSU game. I am hoping the cumulative effect of getting quite a few practice reps has helped in preparing him for this game. Some of the offenses we've seen since he has been getting playing time have been misdirection, where small missteps and false steps...

    Iowa 2-Deep for Wisconsin

    Not that Welch has been a world-beater, but Doyle at MLB. At least Wallace has had 2 weeks to get him ready. He better have his big boy pants ready for this one.

    Flop of the year in Big Ten

    It's not exactly breaking news that a coach uses "coach speak" when talking to the press and a completely different set of communication rules to run and motivate his team behind closed doors. I would expect each and every coach on our schedule would do the same thing. I also don't have a...

    Flop of the year in Big Ten

    That NW situation is a bit perplexing. Thorson should probably be given retroactive co-player of the year honors for what he was able to hide about that offenses shortcomings. A couple of years ago they had that WR, Austin Carr, who caught about 1000 passes and is now playing in the NFL. They...
