I am totally confused as to why, with the passing game clicking, we decided to run the ball to the point that they were crowding the line.
When out of 15 consecutive plays ran, 12 are rushing, what do you expect?
Defense played well enough to win this. TR Was 10-16. 62%. Out of those 16, 1 tip and one drop. It wasn't his play that cost us. Dak was 7-17.
Play calling! HORRIBLE!

The play calling made no sense whatsoever. One successful drive resulting in a field goal. Fine by me. I figured that was a decent start against a ranked opponent.
Then, we completely go away from what got us our only points of the day. Running the ball on third and long, going for it on fourth and long at midfield, not running plays that had previously worked in the game, i.e. middle screen to Perkins, trying a field goal down by multiple touchdowns, not utilizing Morrow's height against smaller defensive backs.
I feel like I'm watching the exact same game every weekend. Start off good and then go to vanilla offense where we play not to lose.
I have no problem playing that game to start the season off either. We could have won yesterday. OSU is not as good as advertised. I feel like we need one of these big name out of conference games every year. To be somebody, you have to beat somebody. We had that opportunity yesterday.

Exactly! TR was 86% on the first drive. 6 out of 7. We then ran 15 plays and 12 were rushing.
What we did was pull the ball out of the hands of TR and forced the run even after they were crowding the line.
Now we have idiot fans who want to see a different QB. Plan ignorance!
Replace the OC NOW or Replace CDM at the end of the season!
