Reading transcript - MR doesn't get it.

Kept taking about how passes were there. Almost made first downs passing. Tried running once on third down and didn't make it....so we tried a nifty double move with Jordan (that didn't work either). So maybe we could have run more.

I really don't think he gets it. I don't think his teams are tough, vicious, killer teams. I think they are finesse teams and DL is a finesse coordinator. Not a break your nose, break your spirit, destroy your body and soul type. Not a Bill Snyder or Tom Osborne Midwest horror for other teams to face and be crippled for two weeks.

(Of course it isn't working with Newby. He falls down on first contact.)

Out at Bill Snyder, my goodness.

After seeing the look on his face today at the presser. He gets it. Trust me.

The transcript sure sounds like his mind is preoccupied with how cool it would be if the passing game worked like it does in his fantasies. (Or maybe if it worked as well as it does against our last place pass defense.)

The passes WERE THERE. Unfortunately we didn't complete them and Illnois did at the end of the game. He had Westerkamp TWICE yards behind everybody and overthrew him with the wind. On multiple other times he didn't come off of a covered Westerkamp to guys that were wide open and much shorter easier throws. TA had a terrible day and it wasn't all weather and it wasn't all play calls. Hopefully he learns from it and makes better decsions in the future.

I hope someone tells him that we have made every third and three or less this season when our big backs get in behind our offensive line. Not a pass play. Not a smaller back trying to out run people. Not a fly sweep. A big back running straight ahead converts 3rd and short...

Every...Single...Time.
