Against Oklahoma I see us eating up clock and running the gawt damn ball to shorten the game ,kinda like Callahan at USC. Does Grant get his hundred ?
I see us running the ball.
- Thread starter GaRed
- Start date
Grant over 100 every game. First game was shaky but NW also specializes in stopping the run
I think more importantly, we see less Wyatt Liewer and Oliver Martin and more Omar Manning and Alante Brown.
We saw Liewer at the end of last weeks game because Casteneda had dropped 2 passes and Manning was injured. Liewer is a damned good wr. He’s not going to take it 90 without a head start but he’s a good player.
I don’t care if we throw 80% of the time as long as we score points……and I’m a run the ball guy
run/pass mix depending on what is working. dont see a wild ass move one way or the other. scratch and claw dog fight and be in it on the last drive. play like we have a little pride left.
Whatever the offense can do as far as ball control and keep our suspect D off the field seems like the way to go.
Blocking he has looked good on edge few times I watched him. Agree on nothing awesome in receiving part
Maybe he could have given better depth at TE? Dude is like 6 4 and 230 or so. Bigger than most of our TE it seems
I think our main problem is not on offense but on defense. So why go tinkering around with the offense trying to shorten the game by forcing the running game to carry a load it has not been able to carry thus far all year. Sure Grant has his yards, but those yards are happening because our passing game is keeping them from crowding the box. Just stick to the offense we have been running and run it well without turnovers and stupid as shit penalties.
Agree. Can’t see whipple and Mickey sidelining their playmakers and taking CT arm out of the game to put this teams future on an extremely suspect OL. They need to get the ball out quick and use grant as a change of pace.
I bet the offense looks different1 No marks against Frost nor Whipple. I just hope that the defense can be a defense and keep this game close! I have bled Husker Red all my life! Crazy but I am excited about this weeks game!! In the 90's when we lost a game, I about had to walk outside and see if sun came up! It was depressing, recently (10 YEARS)), it has been... oh no big deal! That needs to change!
I think it's going to be a low scoring game. OU's offense isn't as explosive as it has been, and their defense looks significantly better than the flag football defense under Riley/Grinch.
It is. BV brought the Clemson D coaches to OU for a reason. Much faster and tackling much
better. Will see about the pass D. Thompson did have some success in the RRR last year.
