PSU had not had any time to prepare for it and refused to send two or three more linemen onto the field. Rutgers will not make the same mistake. We have to hope that our OL depth is better than Rutgers DL depth. They will only need a couple of db's against a formation like that as we will have no wr's in that formation.I don't see a reason we wouldn't just bring out the Barge package again... Rutgers is smack dab in middle of the pack in run D(6 spots lower than Penn State even after they gave up 350+ to us).
Line em and HIT SOMEBODY.
Without coming out and saying he couldn't believe that Penn State didn't adjust their personnel, he did say that they ran it a lot more than they planned because of the success they were having. I also think Rutgers will do a much better job of defending it and we'll see a lot less of that formation, as was the plan with Penn State.PSU had not had any time to prepare for it and refused to send two or three more linemen onto the field.

Is Matt Robinson still on the team and or a qb?We keep talking about Johnson, but have we heard anything about Samari Collier? I kind of want to see what he has.
GREAT presser........loved the back and forth with Loren at the end......................
I believe so, but in all of the mentions of a depth chart in media Johnson has been mentioned before Robinson. I’ve seen nothing from Robinson that would lead me to believe the team has much of a chance with him playing. Then again, Peters hasn’t been good either.Is Matt Robinson still on the team and or a qb?
Loren Tate = cool dude.GREAT presser........loved the back and forth with Loren at the end......................
I've wondered about him as well. This being game 9 he could see the field from now until end of season without burning a redshirt. Maybe that's what the staff has in mind. If not I'd be worried about him. If he's not better, or at least as good as the 4 ahead of him that's a really bad sign given how bad the QB's have performed.We keep talking about Johnson, but have we heard anything about Samari Collier?

I don’t know anything about him or how he’s looked, but I’d guess as the number 5 QB on the roster he’s probably not taken a single snap with the 1’s. He’d have to be exceptional to move up the depth chart while not getting any real reps except running the opponents offense against our D. Spring ball is his chance to prove himself. If he gets in any of our games this season things have gone very very badly.I've wondered about him as well.

Didn't Loren also pitch for those guys?Loren played fast pitch softball when he was in Hammond, IN back in the early 60's. He played for a team called NIPSCO. My dad was the pitcher on the team. He was a legend when writing for the Hammond Times.
They're probably switching him to WR LOLIs Matt Robinson still on the team and or a qb?
Gotta think the reason they did not move to Art sooner was his injured shoulder. I think BB mentioned shoulder surgery was planned after Minny game.Obviously QB play has been a huge problem, but it’s inaccurate to say BP did not win the #1 spot. He was hurt during the bye week so Art got the start.
This is the way. Don't overwhelm the kids and build success and confidence.I’m assuming staff will come up with a few more wrinkles in the run game to attack Rutgers defense.
But this is how you keep building…one game put in the barge package, another game McCray gets a lot of carries due to chase being out, focus on new plays for Rutgers…in future games when offense struggling, can try out a few things from past weeks.
Wait, is chase out? I may have missed that.I’m assuming staff will come up with a few more wrinkles in the run game to attack Rutgers defense.

No he is full go, I think he was talking about earlier in the season or the end of the PSU game.Wait, is chase out? I may have missed that.
Didn't plan on tearing up at 8 in the morning, but here we are...
Yeah talking about earlier in the season. But chase was in concussion protocol, whether or not he had one, so Josh may get more carries this week.No he is full go, I think he was talking about earlier in the season or the end of the PSU game.
