4th and one and a wildcat----That question need be asked. Bad play call. I would have been ok punting or going fo rit but no gimmick play just let Raymond work.

D substitutions were wild. Walker absent for most of second half---Allison in at all. 4 with longest leash ever. I wish GS would go back to micromanaging the D. I think he has set paramters, but let personnel and play calling with the dc as was with R smith. If anything you would the hc more rather than less involved seeing what has occurred through 3 games. That goes agains the blame it all and dont assess the reasons crown but the history speaks for itslef.

How do you come out the first two games and think 41 is the best option at lb--and Munn should start, and 4 should play always. So obvious how things changes when Walker Wright and the Rice transfer have played. The DC has made some very odd choices personnel and scheme wise. Many want to say GS does everything but the main thing was coach hiring which one can fault. In GS 1 and after RobbSmith we saw a more disciplined D we dont see now. That is indicia of the dc and def staff making those choices now. Today showed that with more discipline, edge containmnet and some other personnel choices, the team can be competitive.

Four of RUs top five tacklers were DBs - 54 total plays and the 4 DBs had 28 tackles (more than half) and I never like to see that, USC didn't have that problem.

RU had a chance and at least the game didn't look bad on TV.
USC is known as a terrible cross country traveler

Showing doesn't mean anything, you can show all u want but if you don't win it doesn't amount to anything

RU played better this week than last 2.
Some killer INTs & no takeaways on D.

Gutsy gutsy fake punt call.
Wildcat call was abysmal

We could be on a top plays of the week and not for NC state reasons.

Good game, but at this point we needs Ws not atta boy u tried hard today. 0-44 against ranked opponents- that won't get the team to consistent bowl games.

I was mad Greg accepted the penalty early on, RU got a RB for a 5 yard loss at least and he took at 10 yard penalty. On 4th down they scored. Which was like 5th down.

Greg always does that in this situation and I said it when it happened. He does the opposite of winning coaches whenever there is a fork in the road
