It's actually a good idea when you're running it 90% of the time, but not on 3rd and 18.

Agreed. Earlier, on another failed 3rd down playaction play...

Why playaction on third down? It's not like we ran a zone run play out of that formation before in that situation for them to bite

Following that abortion of a hail mary....

WTF is this infatuation with playaction?

Boom is playing well but I'd rather see Hyde in the rotation and Hall in the slot. How about a bubble screen to Hall once in a while? How about a slant? Hook? Curl? Pop pass even? For shits sake!


Go back to the pistol. Saves time and opens the running lanes more. I formation is not the way to go with this QB and this team. Make it happen.

I think Bollman needs to come down out of the booth and get down on the field with the team. It might help him be able to see what is happening and call plays accordingly..

I think going a little more hurry up or sugar would help this team on offense and slow down the penalties on the Oline.

And please, please, please get Hyde in the game as well....

All we need to see in the 2nd half is some off tackle runs and more screen/short passes.

Braxton is a Freshman Quarterback. Stop crushing his confidence by calling deep passes! Short passes first!

Stoneburner is one of the best Tight Ends in the Big Ten! USE HIM!

Love the pistol. Best of all worlds, IMO, especially with a mobile QB.

Surprised by Hall not getting more involved at the WR position. Perfect for short passing plays.

I think the I plays are working fairly well and I'm fine with running it a ton, but they will HAVE to find a way to use the passing game effectively to win this game. I formation runs have been effective, but they will not effective if they are run constantly.
