WTF is up with the play calling?

[Uncle Ruckus]

It's 4th and 17ing goal from around the 10 and we run a 17ing play action? Really Dan?

There have been a lot of Croom era flashbacks tonight

Point blank, we never had a chance with the playcalling. It's been horrendous, honestly on both sides of the ball. We played right into their hands. Really disappointed in the staff tonight

Yeah, I thought State should have tried to throw it down the field more because they've had so much success with that with Fitzgerald at QB.**

time for you to go back to ignore.

I know you are joking but the combination of their secondary and only having one real threat at WR definitely killed that chance tonight.

But that wasn't the problem. We got 1-3 yards rushing compared to 4-8 like last week.

We are not built to play Big 12 ball with this year's team. We have to be able to run the ball to set up our passing.

Fitz laid an egg tonight

Time for you to gimme the address of your nearest sonic

There are always a few in the crowd that don't know enough about it so they default to play calling. And its always during a loss. Imagine that.

Please enlighten us.

I didn't see a lot of fire from Fitz. Never saw him trying to get his troops rallied behind him. And we aren't starting our best RB. I wonder if that's an issue as well.

Dak had skill, but also bigger leadership shoes.

 

[MSUDC11]

Fitz and his receivers aren’t close to as good as Dak and his receivers were. We HAVE to be able to run the ball to be effective whatsoever on offense.

Stephen Guidry and Malik Heath really really need to be as good as advertised.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Ok Bear Bryant, I'll bite. Why in God's name is it a good idea to run play action on 4th and goal at the 10? Do you know what the purpose of play action even is? Good Lord...
