Something is badly wrong.
It makes no sense to me
Attacking a defense dropping 8 by throwing 73 3 yard passes....
What is the purpose of the prevent? Were doing exactly what they want us to do. And we had all week to prepare for it.
We are a better football team than Arkansas and Kentucky. They were much better coached
I'm not going to evaluate long term. But I will evaluate these last 2 weeks. That was worse than 3-2. Not close
We are playing 5 against 8. Our quarterback is playing awful but he is also being put in awful positions. If only we had a running back.
We have a California ***** at QB that can't read a defense. WR's that have no idea if it's zone or man. A shitty o-line that can't block people. And a running back that taps out after every touch.Quote:

The gameplan is currently worse than our execution. And our execution is bad I get it. That's My .02.
The LOS has to be respected. Drop 8 to cover 5 and have no reason to cheat forward.
I do tip my hat to our defensive effort and preparation. They are fun to watch.
The defense knows the play pre snap..... it's obvious. Our offense doesn't know what it's doing..... even more obvious. Poorly coached on the offensive side of the ball.Quote:

The line of scrimmage will have to be respected.
Luginbill was right. Leach has to have a run game. In fact, I'll add he needs an accurate dual threat QB too. Shrader/Dak/Fitz would have eaten up free yards tonight.
This is so embarrassing. Ole Miss is gonna make us their bitch this year.
Y'all are all wrong. Our offensive line is complete and utter ass. Three should never beat five, and yet they do. Mason Miller is the issue, and those fat lazy shits we have playing. Get a real OL in there and this shit works.
I think Shrader would be am immediate improvement. Its really not necessarily because he is a better quarterback. Its because it would create the threat at controlling the line of scrimmage. Therefore he would be a better option for our offense.Quote:

Except none of those guys (save Dak of course) can throw it accurately enough to punish teams for bringing more men up. Nothing happens in a vacuumQuote:

No air raid can work with a dumb QB. Just like no power running scheme can work with Brandon Holloway going up the middle
Add in too many penalties, drops, wrong routes, and an OL that wasn't recruited to play in or been coached long for this system and you have a shitshow
If nothing else Shrader would scramble for first downs. No questioning his toughness.Quote:

I think Leach will figure it out. He's too smart and experienced not to.
He never changes, but he's never had to change. Night like tonight may help us in the long run because it's going to force him to adjust. He's not going to get fired without trying to adjust.
He never adjusted at Wazzou because he never had. Sure, UW figured him out, but when he was winning 8-9 games a year, who cares if UW has you figured out?
He'll adjust
Well ark figured him out in the sec, so it's sort of a problemQuote:

I didn?t read any of the bitching because I guarantee none of y?all have a clue. Shut up quit bitching and then show this tweet in a month.
FIFY*Quote:

That Moorhead hire was such a train wreck.
No more drinking for me. Last night was bad. Drinking and MSU football don't go well together.
He didn’t adjust at WSU because he knew it was a talent problem that he had to recruit to fix. He is in deep shit here because he is not dealing with a talent problem. He is dealing with a “this scheme does not work against these athletes” problem. We need to play Will Rogers and hope that he can adjust his scheme to allow the quarterback to take free yards and run the tailbacks. If we will simply call the correct play against a light box and lose that way I will accept it, but if Leach is going to continue to throw the ball when the numbers in the box dictate you to run it and if Leach is going to tell his quarterbacks to sit in the pocket when they have 10 yards of open field in front of them then he needs to go.Quote:
