Outside of screen plays, our offense is mostly sandlot football. It works with 2 and 12 but we need an actual offense next year

It's a lot of matchup choices. They find a favorable matchup and if they don't find it post snap, it becomes elude the rush 2 and create magic. It's basically Mahomes ball
guy won the national title in division 3 at wisconsin-whitewater every other year…he can coach!
i know this is silly, but from watching other college teams... fake handoff, sprint to the wide side, TE smalls runs under, lahjohntay runs a 10 yard cross, and travis runs a 20 yard cross and go. literally no defense stops that play more than half the time. script plays in the meeting room instead of on the sideline
Correct and I was extremely concerned after the first drive
Yep. It needs to change next year. Need to hit the portal hard again to replace our DL and upgrade OL.
I know there wasn't really any success tonight, but there also needs to be a willingness to keep trying if the first couple of runs don't hit, and it'd be nice to have more than like 2 runs in the first 15 plays.
I think 3 of the 8 handoffs were on the final drive.
It looks like hes no stranger to playing under center either. It would be nice to see a RB take a handoff with actual momentum.

That was just cool the rush down. The commentators hated it but they were selling out to rush and dropping everyone into coverage. Cash for as amazing of a pass blocker he is, he's a terrible run blocker.
The one thing that pisses me off is that we suddenly decide that we are a running team on 3rd and 4th and short and then get stuffed. Not the first time thats happened either
He has taken a lot of hits this year, some really brutal ones.
By this time of year very few regular players are 100% healthy, everybody has some deep bruises, some muscle pulls, etc. I've known guys who played with stuff that would keep regular people home from work and it never was mentioned on the injury reports, they just dealt with it.
Wonder how much of that kind of stuff is impacting Shedeur's ability to do the things that would be easy fully healthy.

We still got work to do when it comes to run defenders especially with Chidozie gone next year
My point was more, too little, too late. Those runs were fine, but only having 5 in the first 6 drives is wild.
They have awesome coaches. They will be good again next year.

Hard to say, he only missed 6 passes, one should have been a PI, the other should have been caught for a TD, and I can't even remember the other 4.
His technique is very good, he just doesn't have his "man strength" yet. An offseason in the weight room should do him a world of good. He doesn't get very good push.

Two runs were with 1 yard to go.
Three on the final CU drive
Micah had a decent one
I8 had some decent ones as well till he got hurt.

Agree. He has to get stronger. Then again, he's a true freshman
Been like that all season. Take the ball out of 2’s hands on the most important plays in scenarios where they haven’t been good all year.
Switch back from Mezcal. Then post again in an hour.
A couple were throw aways when the rush was getting to him, one was a deep ball early that he skipped to the WR.

This was the same crew who worked BYU-Utah.
They weren't paid. This conference has a referee in Kevin Mar who has no business working at this level.
The job of a referee is to enforce the rules of the sport they referee. He and his crew utterly failed at that today.

Hayden has been a major disappointment. Had high hopes for him but he is clearly RB3. He’s a decent receiving back but as a runner he is bad.
