I don’t know, maybe not run it up the middle on EVERY SINGLE DAMN FIRST AND SECOND DOWN. It drove me nuts.

This was posted by @SuperMario on the M/OU thread but I'm bringing it here because the same thing applied to me and Wisconsin yesterday. Mrs. 847 was also pissed and my buddies were lke WTF?


(We were at a B1G watch party with 4 TV's going for everyone's teams - very cool time.)

Anyway, UW was doing this constantly and then started doing play-action and jet sweeps.

It worked!

I wonder if that was the game plan. Lull them to sleep (nine in the box) and then blast 'em.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Sorry you had to watch the same thing. When it’s game like OSU v Texas last week and Buckeyes are wisely conservative with their approach, I totally get it. They took the lead and didn’t need Sayin to take unneeded chances and played conservative. This was completely different. When you’re behind and running up the middle is failing over and over, maybe scrap the gameplan and adjust when every single indicator tells you to change it up, you should change it up. 

ironic that I was just complimenting old school in the trenches about Wisconsin in my favorite non-primary rooting interest and they and Michigan showed the worst version of that type of football. I had it coming lol.

This from the On3/Rivals writer. I guess the train really is off the rails.

No more enduring belief that an infective offense is running too much on early downs and the box is too stacked.

Sometimes it holds up to scrutiny, often not.

Have you seen this @bayareabadger ? Assuming the bodies holds up, we'll probably make it to this game.

I did see that. I think I was in college when that game was first set up.

hopefully the program can hold up enough to make it a good one

Originally put on the schedule in 1998, for 2002.

Both teams used to be good back then.

Some sources are saying things got really ugly in the locker room after the game.

And not just verbally and not just players.

The wheels are off.

Clueless.


"I think it is all the same, right? I'm a part of them, you know, trying to figure out, hey, what's your identity? I don't come in here and oversell, like I've said before, right?
So I can't tell you what our identity is."
"I wouldn't tell you what our identity is, right? If things were going really well, and this was the other way around, I would say our identity is what we put on film. And so, that's where we're all trying to push ourselves to.


I can't grant them confidence. I again, you stand tall. You stand in front of them guys every single day and try to say it's about a belief."
