A field house and we win this!
They said same as last week also. It’s bad but without Duff, not shocking and we didn’t throw very much either
It was 12 million, I thought funded by Ellison’s wife. So like 3M per yr but I heard on a CFB media pod there’s actually the ability to opt out after each year.
I’m guessing they’ll do that but we’ll see.
Rutgers at least looked like a Big 10 team today. However without Duff and Lonnegan not much chance
The sad part of that comment is that they have 10 WRs in that room. A few who were 4*s and the two dynamic freshman and still no one can do anything without Duff
Yeah, but we didn’t because, unfortunately, our coaching staff is actually worse than theirs, which is absolutely stunning.
Agree. If you watched this game in isolation, there isn’t much to complain about.
But otherwise, it’s yet another ‘almost’, while showing some patterns that hint at being out coached second half and too slow to adjust.
100%- can’t believe G.S. is still pulling that crap. I thought Tom Coughlin told him to knock it off years ago.
No explosive athletes on defense. It’s why they can’t stop mobile QBs and can’t sack the QB and don’t turn the ball over. Slow for a major conf team. They played close but it is what bad teams do, next they will probably get blown out by a Wisc team who got clobbered by Iowa today.
In fairness to the better WRs, they are mostly freshman and sophs. Players like Strong and Duff flashed in year 2 but were not dominant yet.
Sick of the excuses personally. Every team deals with injuries and it's arguably the coaching staff's fault Lonergan got injured again. They are every bit as bad as their record suggests
The fact that we can't complete a single pass in an entire half of football as members of the B1G is beyond egregious. It'd be one thing if we ran triple option, but we were ACTUALLY TRYING.
I'm still convinced SHI is built on some sacred burial ground. Something just doesn't add up and never has - coaching & talent deficiencies, aside.
Underneath routes were open all day. Not sure if was intentional or just AJ trying to hard with the long ball.
13 passes isn’t trying very hard. Not sure what the split was between halves. And there were the 3 catchable balls that were all ‘dropped’. For argument’s sake, if they were all caught, it would have been 6-13. Surace also passed well enough to draw 3 DPIs. If this had been the NFL, that would’ve been huge yardage associated with those three penalties instead of just 45 yards.
So Indiana also didn’t catch a ball second half. Clearly, Surace is limited, no doubt. What I don’t understand is why going into a game where you probably game planned not to throw it very much that you wouldn’t come up with some more wrinkles in the running game?
Not one slant today. Even Teel said our passing calls were bad compared to Michigan using the short pass early to gain confidence.
And that small playbook will only win consistently in the B1G with much better talent
we won’t trick, outscheme, or confuse anybody so we better just have good enough talent t
