    Offensive Positives from NW Game

    Well, the good news is - it was probably our best offensive performance of the year. The bad news is - that was probably our best offensive performance of the year. NW has a legit defense and we did some good things. Our o-line is definitely still struggling, though. Hopefully, they can...

    Ok, after going for a walk, here is my optimistic take, but still not great odds

    I like the optimism. Maybe I need to take another walk or 6... This loss is so hard to take because we were so goddamned awful against a team that isn't very good, in what should have been a big game that we were prepared for. How do you go into the Big House not ready to play?

    Rough Saturday so far

    Do you honestly believe that Michigan team deserves to be ranked? Was is that awesome win over Army? Maybe that crushing on MTSU? Or maybe that absolute ass-whooping that Wisconsin put on them. We were terrible today, and they barely beat us. They aren't a good team. And today, we were...

    I told you all Brian Ferentz sucks

    He's certainly deserving.

    How do we win another game with an Oline this terrible?

    No team on the college level should so devastated by the blitz as we seem to consistently be. Plain and simple. Yeah, the blitz works great against us. But it shouldn't. Any other team would have adapted and made them pay.

    How do we win another game with an Oline this terrible?

    Well, first, this line will get better. I mean, it pretty well has to. It's not like it can get worse. This game really exposed 3 things: 1) Our guards are very mobile. You can game plan around that and I would expect that they will now that it has been made so obvious. There is just no...

    Need to Clean up a few things

    Stanley had a rough day, but honestly, could BF have put put him in worse plays/positions?

    Need to Clean up a few things

    Our issue is not lack of talent. We actually have as much talent as we have had in a long time. Our main issues our: Our OL is just plain bad. We've had a couple of injuries, but there is really no good excuse for this. Our HC is a former very good OL coach. Our OC is a a former lineman...

    Our O-line was exposed

    Penn State doesn't blitz much because they don't have to. They have a very, very good defensive line.

    Well, I guess that is one way to find the silver lining on this cloud...

    Play calling is a lot of it. There was no outlet receiver for the quick pass against the blitz most of the game. But even when there was one, Stanly held the ball instead of going to them. The worst part, though, is that neither Stanly nor the OL seemed to see the blitzes coming. Stevie...

    Unfortunately, tagged with a bad enough offense to lose 8 games. Luckily, the defense is good enough to overcome the terrible offense that we will win 7 or 8 of our games.

    Iowa got beat by a better Michigan team, and that Michigan team is hot garbage. Our defense played well against a terrible Michigan offense. Our offense was just pathetic against a very average Michigan defense that simply blitzed pretty much every play.

    Can't disagree. Play calling has been miserable.

    Now, now, let's not get ahead of ourselves. Brain has set the standard for terrible play calling pretty damn high.

    Our offensive line has just been incredibly disappointing today. Particularly on the inside.
