*************Official Gameday Thread Iowa Hawkeyes Vs Miami Ohio*************

Stanley hasn't been good in the pocket with time. Maybe that's why they rolled him out and he threw a good pass.

A big “C” performance. Very, very uninspiring.
Giving out grades - OK
O = C
D = C
Return Teams - C
KO Teams - C
FG - B (kid did look confident)
Coaching - D-

Coaches sleepwalking through this? How 'bout some Blitzs on the FR QB and shake him up. How 'bout some of our own pick plays (like MoH) gets away with. I liked the use of the RBs in the passing game. I hate the low percentage passes down field - how 'bout some combo routes to free up the receivers?
 
How? How about its 30 minutes into the first game. Only like Ohio State and Clemson looked like world beaters in the first 30 minutes.
I promise to eat crow if we look better in the second half. It’s just frustrating after a whole summer of hype about a revamped offense and stout D to be playing even with a middling MAC school. Just same shit different year feeling.
 
He's double and triple teamed.
Yeah, even when they start 1 on 1, they slide a guard down in case the OT starts to get beat. There's no roll outs to the left side. Everything is in the pocket or out to the right. If they can't get pressure other ways, then they will continue to double Epenesa and be free to stretch the field against our somewhat soft secondary.

The DTs could also stand to do a better job of keeping things clogged in the middle, a few too many gaps and cutbacks up the gut means they're getting driven out or overpursuing.

If what you state is true - Blitz off the left side.
 
Remember folks, we were ahead 3-0 last year against Northern Illinois.........

So our offense is ahead of the curve in that regard. And as we kind of expected, our D is slightly behind.
