Yet he's looking a lot better since he is not forcing throws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sent wr's in motion while the slot ran a slant and the defense was crossing and we had huge sideline yards. First time they opened it up like that.

Nothing to get upset or enthused about IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much improved over Pitt loss.Granted, the players have to execute. However, I beg anyone to argue that this hasn't been the most creative, player-strength oriented, and unpredictable play calling yet this year. With the exception of a series or two with some stale plays that cost us the possession, the play calling was exceptional. I can't believe more people didn't find the play calling encouraging; wasn't that pretty much what we had all been asking for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More options for Matt.Still, he was the leading rusher. Granted we had a lot of guys handle the ball who totaled over 100 yards. I guess it's all good.Now let's kick Louisville's butt and be ready for Cincy. That will decide how our season goes. Win at Cincy and we run the table.

I was just frustrated I couldn't be there! First game in 8 yr I missed! So sick couldn't even get out of bed. If you knew me you would understand I had to be sick to miss a game. Cheered from the couch. Even put the bull's clothes on. I think the Louisvile game and Cincy will be the key factor in this year's standing. We got to pull these out. I am hoping!!
