Regardless of how this ends, Bullock has impressed me

[JonDMiller]

He has run the ball real well today and has shown patience at times, power and good scoot. The OL has done well in run blocking but has struggled in pass pro.

JVB and WR's just not on same page. There is blame for both there. D has done well enough, IMO.

 

[vegashawki]

Agreed.

 

[herkyattack]

Agreed.

 

[1hawkeye1]

Also agree. Why have we completely abandoned CJ????

 

[JonDMiller]

He reminds me of a former Iowa RB...can't put my finger on it just yet. Maybe young Tavian, sans those jets. I really like his footwork today

I have no answers for the passing game other than there is a lot of inexperience out there and some WR's are not reading the same reads JVB is reading...new offensive nuance that is troublesome.

I was going to maybe say Albert Young.

That's it.

I think the D did its job most of the game also. We should win only giving up 17. The passing game has to come alive

Jon, I agree about Bullock and I have actually been mildly surprised with the D. But JVB shouldn't get the benefit of the doubt. He's a senior, a year of starting experience, and he's THE LEADER. This is the same old story with him on the road. I don't completely blame him for offensive chaos today, but he should get criticism. And plenty of it.

Who wouldve thought running back would be our best position coming out of this game

Or that the defense is still the strongest unit?

Or that Texas fans were right

Tavian Banks? Jon, you been drinking again?

 

[H8IAST8]

How much weight has he gained, he definitely looks bigger IMO.

 

[aaronzuriel]

DAMON is the man... Greg Castillo... what a game!!! OMG may Davis and Vandy some how come upo with a veryical passing game...

 

[tm3308]

Tavian Banks? Jon, you been drinking again?

He said Tavian without the jets. Obviously, Tavian wouldn't have been Tavian without the speed. But that description perfectly fit AY.

 

[aaronzuriel]

btw.. might not NIU be good?

 

[ICHawk24]

Defense was great in second half other than long td run.

Am I the only one who thinks that Bullock has looked pretty good today? Garmon hasn't really had the sample size, but it looked like the blocking on his rushes was subpar at best.

Posted this a couple hours ago (even before he busted the big one)...game ball to Bullock, honorary mention to Castillo...
