IU - Purdue Game Discussion Thread

When you can't run off tackle all f'ing year, and you have the opportunity to step on the opposing team's neck, do you call a running play off tackle? Sure, why not...
Exactly. You’re not fooling anyone. Throw the F’ing ball to Bell. Period.
 
That was about as bad a first half as we have played in a while. Still up 17-7 and fortunate to be. I will take it but we have to clean things up in the second half.

I know with hindsight it’s easy to say we shouldn’t run 3 times on the last series but we ran 2 times for 9 yards. If we were 3rd and 2 or more we pass 90% of the time but I would have ran on 3rd and 1 too. Looked like they were begging us to run it down their throats.

Yeah I am not all that concerned with the 3 run plays because as you said, on two of those runs we had good gains.

I'm very concerned about the defense and the sloppy, lazy and out of character play. We only have 17 points and that has a lot do with not getting indinia off of the field and giving up way too many stupid penalties.

Agree. Lots of bad plays bith physically and mentally by the defense. Need to get them back together and put a solid second half together.

The issue with that play call is we've been bad at it all year, we had a chance to step on a throat prior to halftime, and now IU gets the ball again after half...

Bell passed Rondale for #2 single season on that drive. 40 yards to catch Standeford.
