The long layoff further bastardizes every natty in college football history, one could argue.All other football divisions play the following week after the conclusion of the regular season. D1 needs to do the same. It’s stupid to have long layoffs. Hell, look how rusty NFL players get when they don’t play the last couple games before the playoffs(once they win their division). I hope to hell Indiana beats Bama. I sure as hell don’t want an all SEC championship game. I’m not sold on Oregon. As shitty as we played at times last night, we kill tech by 28. Almost wish the committee would’ve dropped us to 4th when we lost to Indiana. Miami doesn’t look like the 10th best team. More like 5th or 6th (even though they beat us).
I thought he would be weak but he was fine a good leader and teacher. I thought ouSeems to me he did a really good job first year.
One thing about it that is interesting is the fact opposing QB's seemed to get a lot of time in the pocket to scan the field, and throw the ball. Even with that Matt's crew held opps to a low scoring affair. Defense only gave up 17 points yesterday. That said, his D kept this game winnable, but the offense was out of whack, and the OL really isn't very good, nor is ST, which is why they lost the game.
I'm no DC, but I would like to see what he does (if he's still here) about more QB pressures, but even without a lot of this the D was successful. Anyhow, I'm interested to see what he does with that aspect of the game, and who he brings in via recruits/transfers over-all. All in all, I don't see him as the issue. IMHO, it's OL, ST, and some growing pains, including Sayin.
This team can learn from this and become dominate if handled correctly, but I truly have my doubts that the OL will become more assertive and dominate. I hope I'm wrong about that. Day needs to take the OL woes seriously, that's been the weak link all along IMO.
Someone implied they weren't concerned about the OL moving forward after the Indy game because allegedly no other team we would play would bring that kind of pressure.
Wrong. Weakness got found out, and exploited.
Defender wasn't unblocked. Jeremiah just didn't secure his responsibility.
Only if your. Over 70 years old.Fuck that. Beating scUM is always #1. Get your priorities in check
I noticed this as well. It seemed to me like he was protecting himself a bit. Regardless if he comes back or not, I tip my cab to the young man and thank him for his years as a buckeye.He didn’t have a great night last night, if this is his last game. Really seemed to shy away from taking a hit an alligator armed a few. I don’t recall him doing that throughout the season, so maybe just a bad game.
Will be missed for sure. We will have fond memories
Shit hsving some lung issues of late that's got be scary as shit
Whittingham is indeed assembling his whole coaching staff with Utah/BYU buddies who've mostly never coached outside of that mormon sphere. I don't think this is gonna go well.
Bringing the QB and WR coach with him from Utah is especially very underwhelming
That absolutely sucks. If Styles and IGB gone how is he not in line to play?
Seriously that stings. Wish him all the best
No clue I don’t follow that close but Day is clearly not the OC he once was. He needs a true OC to turn the keys over to, not a figurehead which is what Hartline seemed like.Any legit rumors out there? I haven't been paying attention. It would be nice to get one who stays for at least two seasons though.
yep, bend but don't break is fine when your offense is putting up points. But otherwise, both sides are just killing clock.Gave up 150+ rushing too and allowed 50% conversions on third down too. Just couldn’t get off the field and got pushed around at key points too
Day doesn't think special teams matter he sees our kicker and punter situation every year and says "eh good enough" id be completely shocked if we actually went out and got someone capable
Historic defense on the PPG side but not very aggressive. 3rd down issues that had shown themselves vs Penn State and Indiana (good teams) were there again. They don’t do enough to disrupt and get off the field.
Also, what? 15 turnovers on the 14 game season. I think 3 of those were vs. Grambling.
Not the reason they lost - they even got a key turnover. But backbreaking situations where they could have done more. Credit to Beck and Miami making plays too. They were pretty flawless.
