[QUOTE="gibb52, post: 1419227, member: 6471"] I only watched until the PU TD to open the 2nd half, then turned it off in disgust. I saw what, a dozen pass plays where PU had a receiver running free in our secondary with no defender within 5 yards? We didn't even make it hard for them. Terrible run defense BTW as well. Smalling,Green,Mays and Davis cannot get any separation and perhaps only Davis has the hands to catch in traffic. Our OC didn't do us any favors today either. We ran it for 4 or 5 yds on 1st down fairly often, then threw on 2nd so we would have 3rd and 5 constantly. We are a running team right now and won't beat anybody throwing it. So run it. BTW if I'm Rod Smith I tell Bush the next time he keeps it instead of handing it off he's coming out of the game. Make the defense defend all 3 runners AJ. I don't see another win. Wisky is light years better, Maryland and NW are both significantly better and Minny and Neb are both plenty good enough to beat us. One of them is our only hope for another win and don't bet on either. Our best hope is that some of the recruits that were at the game were licking their chops knowing they will start immediately next year. And please hope that one of them is a really good QB and at least one is a really good WR. [/QUOTE]
