Moreover, there were many breakdowns in the blocking schemes by many on the offense. The lack of offense is the blame off all the components and not just one factor.

Colorado's and FSU's offense struggled at the Orange Bowl earlier this season, yet they seem to be coming around. Lets wait and see what happens in BIG EAST play before me suggest changes at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Drew did not look too good in that game against Miami at home, so I dont think we should bench Julmiste because he struggled against a great defense.

This week the same Buffs whipped OK state on the road 34 zip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, we are also asking our WRs to play shortstop with all the bad one hop throws they are asked to field on obvious passing downs.BTW...nothing personal against PJ....but there is no sense in pretending that we don't have a major hole in the position. Managing the game is okay for being competitive, but at some point the QB needs to inspire confidence and make plays through the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
