Right?! Gotta pull out the early Solich or Grobe playbook and figure out how to mix in the right pass plays and see what this dude can do.

It seems to me that Albin got back to Solich brand football in the second half instead of drawing up futile plays with zero success for skilled players that we simply don't have. What Solich teams had was toughness and physicality. We are not going to razzle-dazzle anyone, so get those boys back in the weight room and simply make it clear that -- win or lose -- we are going to at least win the battle in the trenches. Perhaps, I am too old school, but just get out there and manhandle the guy in front of you and put a helmet on them. If nothing else, win some respect of your opponent by leaving some bumps and bruises on them.

Though Rogers is an awful passer, he seems to give us far more upside than Rourke does at this point. If we can dominate time of possession on offense, keep the ball moving forward, and get the defense to up their intensity and nastiness a bit, I think that we have a chance of upsetting even those teams with more speed and better skilled players than we have. After all, MAC teams have no shortage of inconsistency on their rosters, which is why many of those kids are playing on a MAC team instead of in the Power 5 conferences.

I literally was doing the same thing. Had the radio call in my ear buds.

Some great philosopher said "There are 2 halves to every game"!





GO BOBCATS

I agree with this. Great use of Rogers and the RBs, with some a jet sweep and a reverse tossed in. Next is to sprinkle in a passing game… Historically when Ohio forces the defenses into putting 8 men in the box even the weakest passers could exploit the single coverage. I mean didn’t Kareem Wilson even complete a big pass or two?

This.

Lee Owens again?

I think with the injuries and less experienced players having to fill in, it's easier for them to be effective getting a push run blocking than in pass protections. Even with the backups, we have a lot of size on the OL. Meservy being back helped also.

Obviously glad to see the offense start clicking in the 2nd half Saturday. The offense will need to work in some passing game to beat MAC teams not named Akron.

Also liked seeing Daxon getting some playing time and making an impact. I know Irons felt his "impact". In all seriousness though, if Irons was in concussion protocol prior to the game, why would they put him out there? He was obviously delirious after the Daxon hit - coach needs to consider the kid's health for Pete's sake!

This goes to show ya that Vegas is better at this stuff that we are. +9.5 wasn't as bad as we thought, and pretty close to the 55 that was out there on the +/- .

I would suggest you question the source of OUr BA poster who put this "inside scoop" on here last week.

I think late money came and we went off as -1 vs. the Orange.

That infrastructure is carrying an annual 6+ million debt load.
