Temple can't drive the length of the field against our D. You punt the ball there.

So long the playcalling remains aggressive, we are fine.

Pretty slim chance that choosing to punt there becomes a positive. The best your offense has looked all season long, in the opponent's territory, in the "grey area" where punts most often result in touchbacks anyway....let's not go into the "4 corners" offense please.
 
daminit.

So much for stepping on their throats.

How do you give up at TD run in the red zone when you know a run is coming?
 
Now they will run the ball and the clock will tick down and the staff will be happy with a 7 point halftime lead.

Shocking. Make a super conservative call when you could step on a team's neck, and it comes back to haunt you. I'm shocked. Only I'm not. DeLeone is a joke.

Sad. Just like they were perfectly happy SQUEEZING out a win against Buffalo. Either Coach P is denying how bad the playcalling/approach is, or worse, he's fine with it. To think he explained it away like he was perfectly comfortable in the post game press conference against Buffalo playing for the hope that UB's "Hail Mary" would fall short. Way to aim for the stars. I was pretty positive about the Coach P hire (not excited, but overall, pleased), and I recognize he brought in some transfers that appear will be solid for us for a couple years, but overall-we need a new field general sooner rather than later IMO. I don't see him driving the team into the ground, but I see wheel-spinning in our future with him as long as he clings to his bromance with DeLeone.

While you may be disappointed with DeLeone's conservative playcalling/stall tactics, look at the bright side-look at the development of our OLine since he showed up. Oh, wait.....

That was an NFL play call....in college football, in those circumstances, you go for it....total momentum changer
 
WTH. Need the offense to go on another tear.


THIS IS WHY YOU NEVER TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE GAS.

What do you mean? Taking your foot off the gas is a GREAT way to stop your momentum in a slow way! Oh, you're not talking about LITERALLY taking your foot off the gas....Yeah, you're right. I try to be a good person so I would never wish something bad on DeLeone. I just hope he gets divine inspiration and decides to spread God's word or something instead of participating in this Capitalist society. Starting this week of practice.
 
Yes, it seems like they want to win every game by 3 points.... We should have been practicing this spread passing formation against UMass and Buffalo, then we might not in week 7 be having the miscommunications between Whitmer and receivers that stopped our last two drives.
