I took some time to chart out the throws by Denard on Saturday, both on a throw chart and a set of drive charts.

Blue dot = other passing options (I did

Denard threw with good velocity and made quick reads. He did not hesitate and made the throws asked of him. I believe there was only one mildly dangerous pass (the overthrow to Robinson?).

They finally got Stonum involved! He is still usually a decoy running fly routes or clearouts to open things up underneath, but it was nice to see him get some of the underneath touches.

Obviously UM was having sustained success vs UConn, so they didn't need to mix things up very much.

Personally, I don't mind the bubble screens. They are basically another style of running play, and featured at almost all schools. The one part of the offense I don't like are the rollout plays with 2 options close to each other. I think it makes things too simple for the defense, eliminating half (or sometimes 2/3) of the field, as there is almost no threat of a throwback to the decoy WRs on the backside of the play.

I wanted to contrast it with this week's game (to see whether that's the offense or they had something saved for a crucial rivalry game) as well as observe how well they design their plays through the air. I really think they go to the rollout play far too often.

Free Safety Depth Chart

#04 RS Frosh Cameron Gordon
#31 Walkon Jared Van Slyke - out for the year with a broken clavicle
#05 Sophomore Vlad Emilien - transferring

The backup SS is Marvin Robinson, who is more of a LB/S hybrid and not well suited for the deep safety spot (FS).

9/8

Per the Bank... Vlad was granted his release from UM on Tuesday. Destination unknown.

ND has a qb and the receivers actually capable of exploited scUM's many defensive weaknesses. Question is, can their defense rattle shoelaces. Their DL appears to be better than UConn's inept DL. I think this ends up a 35-28 type game. Flip a coin to see who wins, but my gut tells me scUM's offense is enough to pull it out so long as shoelaces stays in one piece. If he gets banged up, they're in trouble, which I think will be the story all season.
