Just thought I would surf a little and see what was out there beside a stretch play for a loss, QB sneak, or a pocket sack.

Looks like this coach gave only 2, but reading through some early comments others agree these would work against a 3-4 defense.

I read elsewhere that Petras’ numbers are actually better across the board against the blitz than when there’s no blitz. Purdue only blitzed 10% of the time since they could generate pressure with their front 4

It will be interesting to see how much Wisconsin blitzs (or how much pressure they can generate without it) and how Petras does against it. I'm pretty sure Wisconsin will try to make Petras beat them and sell out to stop our run.

We’ve gotta’ hit Wisky’s young RB Allen hard enough to keep up his fumbling and also contain Mellusi – who is showing greater vision. Goodson is hearing about Allen’s ability and is likely stewing to ‘show him up.’ With our special teams and if Petras as a strategy will leave the pocket to gain an extra second to pass, we’ll get the win. Wisky’s defense was impeccable against Purdue; they won’t be so proficient two weeks in a row. They got lucky on the tip-drill against Purdue, just as we did early in the season. But Wisconsin has had their share of penalties, which should continue. Our penalties against Purdue were atypical in a week of a perfect storm.

Chryst out-coached KF against Purdue, respectively, constantly mixing up the DB-Receiver buffer, while KF kept the timid 5-yard scaredy-cat mandate most of the game. Finally, if Petras continues to miss targets early in the game, bring in Padilla for a few plays to force Petras to ‘think about it.’ Padilla’s appearances haven’t been good, but he can scamper if all is lost. Our answer could be a scripted QB run to create an uncovered gap, which Wisky isn’t expecting (i.e., nebby Martinez), as opposed to simply wildcatting our RB.

It's a given.

If you can outflank a blitz quickly either with a fast running back or fast receiver then they can have a lot of running room.

If you catch a blitz with a quick slant where the blitzer(s) are coming from and the safety takes a bad angle you probably have a TD. T Tracy scored for Iowa on a play just like this in 2019.

The other way is to beat the blitz with blocks and your running back busts through to the 3rd level.

If anyone saw the game Purdue had almost no rushing attempts, Whisky was sending their linebackers on blitzes and striking paydirt. They paid no price for this. Iowa has to find a way to not let this happen to them. Whisky was jamming the receivers at the line of scrimmage and getting home before anyone got open. Iowa has to throw to the running back and quick strikes to La Porta and try to get behind the linebackers if they are sitting in the lanes. That starts with getting 3 to 4 yards on first down. Or it's 3 and out and punt, rinse, repeat, then hope for a turnover. Honestly that's a valid strategy against Whisky with the way they were flopping around the punt returns and coughing up the ball. (They were lucky to recover two of those bobbles). A couple of close plays went to Whiskey or the outcome of the game could have been different. Hawks might surprise tomorrow, they came out throwing against Maryland and took them out of their game plan, could Brian be thinking of this again? Of course if Petras has no time to throw it the gameplan doesn't matter.

He will have time to throw if he is able to get the ball out quickly, like Purdue’s QB’s did against Iowa. But, his receivers need to get their ass in gear and beat coverage.
