Didn't do a damned thing to improve... threw a crap load of passes Into the flats, for the most part have Dobbins too few of carries and didn't give Haskins a damn chance. Accomplished nothing and yet we will talk about making progress.

Don't like it then ignore me but I'm through blasting cup cakes by jus purely being better then someone. I dont fault Kevin because he tried to start slow and give JT confidence and the second he tried to open it up we have to punt because JT can't connect.

It's black and white to me now... We don't have a chance and sorry if that makes you guys uncomfortable after a victory but we didn't do anything I was hoping we would do

Like I said. A boatload. I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, but come on man. If you aren't taking any pleasure out of it, why do you do this to yourself?

This is not normal after a win for me .... but we BLEW IT. WE BLEW an opportunity to see what some of these back ups have. The game was won midway through the 3rs so WHY wasn't Haskins in to give him a look? Instead we are going to win the next 4 games going into PSU with these short throws and Jk and won't know a thing about what's best for our offense.

Would you take pleasure in thumping a 4th grader If given the chance?

Did we do things to get better? We tried and for the most part failed. We won because we were just flat out better and more athletic. My wife asked the same thing and I believe i should enjoy it but when we can't go down the field on Army that's an issue

We need looks for lots of guys, especially the back 7. Borland showed there is talent at LB on the bench. Where is Keandre Jones?

Your goddamned right I would.

Regardless of which state he (or she....I'm not sexist, I'll kick any fourth-grader's ass) is from. I just won't stop when they go down if they're from michigan.

Weird how our first team doesn't get credit for beating ARMY the way they did because it's ARMY. Yet somehow we need to see the backups against ARMY because it's relevant.

like we said going into it, this game will tell us nothing

If you struggle it's against freaking Army, if you look good it's because it's just Army

We won't know shit until they walk off the field against PSU

I shouldn't be this upset because I should have seen this coming... We were going to win because we could and not because we also out executed them.

We had the chance to put Haskins in the game and didn't do it... and Why? So JT could throw a couple quick tosses to Parris in the flat? He threw behind Marcus when he was wide open in the middle of the field and overall fell flat when he went anywhere more then 5 yards down the field other the the TD score at the end.

I don't understand why if we allow JT to throw for a score at the end why we don't allow Haskins to try for the same opportunity

Yep. I said earlier in this thread that this hasn't been a particularly enjoyable season thus far. I also said I get what they're doing with JT. Like it or not, this is his team. And for all of his limitations, he is the B1G's All-Time leader in TDs produced. And he just led an offense that racked up 500+ yards. No coach, on any level is gonna bench that QB. Ain't gonna happen.

It is what it is. JT is the man. He's gonna remain the man. Where this team goes from here will depend largely on how they work around his limitations going forward. I'm not gonna sweat the game plan against a team that was clearly overmatched. I get giving JT some opportunities to work out some of his issues, and hopefully boost his confidence a little. I'm not concerned that we didn't lean on Dobbins and Weber (if he's healthy) more in this game.

Now, if we're in a dog fight with the pedtards, and try to force thae matter with the pass and ignore a running game averaging 6+ yards a carry, I'll be irritated.
