As an OC, if you can't see that speed O and putting this UNI team on their heals doesn't work, you do need to go. Going up to the line and taking your time only lets the D get themselves set for you are running. Our best plays came during hurry up Offense. This is dumb. Herman's O is dumb and Mes is even dumber for continuing it.

If James White can get 9 yards on 1st down, can we at least try a similar play with the same player one more time before punting it away? Their defense is tired. We don't need to over-think this.

But now we're down by 8 late in the fourth quarter. We're running out of time to run the ball down their throats.

I will say the pistol has been okay tonight. But why the OC continues to move away from what works and take so long to run plays is beyond me. Half the reason the spread works is because of the quick hit nature of it. We take to long to run plays both pre and post snap.

So have you sent your resume with your vast coaching skills to CPR appyling for the job of OC or are you just going to contimue to watch the games from your easy chair, waatch the replays and say I can do better then that. Lets face it everyone is a great coach when you can analize a play after it is over and say that did not work. Every play is perfect on paper but we don't play the game on paper.
Say what you want. Think what you want. The results of losing to UNI speak clearly. Keep up your denial.

That two minute drill pretty much wraps this thread in a nice little bow. That team was completely unprepared for the two minute drill. How many times do we have to watch a QB throw to a receiver on 3rd or 4th down short of the sticks. ****** it isn't that ******* hard to figure out! That was a ******** from start to finish.

Someone, hopefully CPR, needs to decide if we are a running team or passing team. I really don't care which, I do feel ISU would be better served to be a running team. But choose one and stick with it. For god sake it can't be worse than what we watched tonight and what we watched in the bowl game. Maybe if we decide to do one or the other we can get an offensive line to block.

Yeah same problems with the O as usual. Something gotta give, head need to roll. Not sure which ones. Never thought I'd see the D get whipped while Wally is here. It happened tonight. I Love the Clones, and always will. Just wanted to see more tonight. Not sure where they go from here.
