Kyle forgot how to complete a slant there for a while in the first half. Lol.
And to add to the clunkiness, IMO, he's using the wrong backs to do the right things. I'm clearly no coach, so this is just my opinion. Lol. But Hayden seems to hit those vertical gaps so much better than the other RB's. Every time he's been called on to do it, he's delivered. Even though his feet are constantly moving, he's not dancing like Trey. And there were times when Miyan tried to bulldoze into the LOS before something opened, and then has to bounce outside where his speed is a detriment horizontally. There has to be something going on with Hayden at practice. Ball security? Or perhaps he's just a poor practice player, but shows up on Saturdays. But as long as they keep winning, I guess I don't care who they put back there.
Well, as long as Maserati Marv and Honda McCord keep that connection.Word is that Hayden struggles in pass pro. We saw Chip whiff on that one corner blitz that resulted in a sack early, but he was rock solid the rest of the game, as was Williams. That's what is holding Hayden back. If he is in there teams will know he is running it - and that becomes a problem.And to add to the clunkiness, IMO, he's using the wrong backs to do the right things.

Similar vibes to the 2017 Iowa game that also came the week after a home win over a top 10 Penn State. Day hasn’t lost to an unranked opponent yet though so I’m giving him the benefit until proven otherwise. Meyer’s last 3 years he lost to an unranked opponents on the road each season.
Amen!
I've watched Wisky all year because they were on the schedule and because I like Luke.
That wasn’t about analytics. It was about how well our D was playing and how crappy their offense was. Just need to call a play that works.Amen!
I get it a little - a TD there essentially wins the game the way the defense was playing. But 3 would give you a 7 point lead. Take the 3. And make it a 2 score lead in a later possession.
I swear, these analytics things makes me want to punch someone in the face - probably Jim Harbaugh.
I think all of that was involved.
I would argue that every head coach at a big time program is a control freak. Those that aren't become ex- coaches at big time programs. Lol.
Hence my use of the “in big games line” and if Gebbia is your back up your in trouble anyway. McCord had a few chances to run against PSU and wouldn’t do it. Same with Stroud last year until his absolute last game and when he did run it almost won them a natty. Justin Field did it all the time. Can’t play in fear is my point
I'm not really arguing with you.
How many times has he tried to thread the needle into a crowd with different colored jerseys on and we have had to breath a sigh of relief that it fell incomplete and was not intercepted and across the field we had a receiver running free and clear. Progression! Progression! learning to do this quickly is the answer to becoming a high draft pick in the pros. If you can't do it in the college game you will surely not do it in the much faster pro game.
Wisconsin stinks and their starting QB is injured.
And he wasn’t very good to start with.
Day has never been upset has he?
Ohio State isn’t UNC
