Idk about that 2nd down call and pass

Looked a lot like a Hail Mary . We are ahead and have already thrown two of them. Am I missing something . Is this like the 4th quarter? 🙁

Doesn't make sense to do a lot of low percentage shots so early 

Especially with the defense playing so well...

[ShocksMyBrain 9,368]

This is some trash offense play calling. 

[AUTigergrad08 617]

We’re going to have to run the ball.  Going to have to wear their defense out.  Can’t keep getting cute here.  

[Dual-Threat Rigby 8,716]

Don't know how many drives I'd like to see where we have about 4 passes to 1 run lol

[boisnumber1 2,821]

Have not liked the playcalling so far. Maybe scripted? But wth do we still have Jackson running the deep routes? Dont get it.

[DAG 34,005]

Please no more screens. Quick hitters to the WRs.

[Maverick.AU 13,281]

Unless the camera is making me continually miss something, the middle of the field, especially the posts, are open

[AUwent 3,763]

Glad Nix at least didn't try to force anything there.

Oh, I know about it. It was garbage.

They are definitely not getting manhandled lol 

Was going to say that.  Bo is getting a pocket and actually getting the ball of just in time.  

[Farmer Brown 2,391]

Run the ball up the middle. We did that on the first drive, and got away from it.

I like he keeps going deep. It makes the defense respect the entire field but that's our weak point

Yep, Bobo is going to test you deep many times a game. We need some screens, and flares out of the backfield to slow down their pass rush. They are stacking the box on first down, and just laying their ears back on 2nd, and 3rd.

It's like we are drawing plays out of a hat.

Is Bo's shoulder hurt? That deep ball had no zip whatsoever

Missed Hudson over the middle on that one. Coaches need to calm Bo and let him know we only need to get first downs. 
They are making Bo beat them. 
Stacking the box against Tank. 

[homersapien 11,427]

No turnovers, no problem.

We are ahead. Defense looking good.

So what's the new rule now then? If they aren't looking at you, you can't touch them?

Yeah basically. Look at what McCreary did on that play. That’s what officials want now, don’t blindside guys you gotta set a basketball pick now 

[e808 3,028]

These play calls are suspect but it’s a heavyweight battle. A lot of jabs or feeling out going on

Kobe was wide open

He had him one on one. It would be better if we had a big play wr and a qb who was good at throws deep but this is a strategy that pays off as the game go

Yep. Said last week that PSU is vulnerable over the middle, especially for the RBs.

Play D . Get ugly D

[JMassie11 1,610]

False start killed the drive there. Only call I didn’t care for was the quick screen after being slammed into the turf but maybe wanted to see how the shoulder was?

We got a first down and a free 15. Nothing has really been “working”.
