Right, I noticed this, too.
Re: ISU-Red Post Game Thoughts/Discussion.
I dont think some of you actually watched the game. We didnt run it up the middle every run play. Do you realize there ar are different run plays to different gaps? There were also plenty of times we ran it off tackle or around the outside. Illinois state has a good defense, why is that hard to admit. We aren’t going always blow out teams, especially this deep in the playoffs. The games yesterday were close as well. Why? Because the teams left are all really good. The defense played great. They kept Robinson in check, under 100 yards, and gave up 3 points. Pretty damn good. Were there things we could have done better, yes, there always is. Take a deep breath, we wre in the semifinals, one win from Frisco. Lets improve and go out next week and dominate.

That may be the case, but the defensive blueprint for every opponent is mostly the same. I am puzzled why we couldn’t use their crashing DEs against them with some short dump off type pass plays. Obviously the rush up the middle, regardless of gap or scheme, wasn’t working.
43 rushes for 128 yards is unimpressive. And that’s with the 35 yard rip. I can’t believe we didn’t include more play action type stuff.
Re: ISU-Red Post Game Thoughts/Discussion.
And 0 use of the TE. No RB screen game yet again even tho ISU was begging for it.

Entz sounded noticeably frustrated when answering questions about offense in his post-game presser.

Remember the Brock Jensen long TD run against GSU? Well, GSU was doing the same thing as ILSr, and we faked handoff, Brock reversed-pivoted, and BINGO.
That’s how you slow down the crashing weak-side DE and or safety, if not exploit it like Brock did.

All I can say is I hope beastmode comes out of hibernation for next weekend it has been sorely missed so far this play off run.
Re: ISU-Red Post Game Thoughts/Discussion.
Lack of play action has me most frustrated over anything else. EVERYONE would have been open off play action today.

Re: ISU-Red Post Game Thoughts/Discussion.
It's quite obvious when Tyler Roehl has a gameplan that doesnt include Kobe, our offense sucks.
But give some credit to Illinois State and out defense was awesome

Another thing to credit ISUr on, their secondary played very well, also... this has as much to do with the play-calling and lack of offensive success than anything...
