    We do not control the tempo of a game anymore from either side of the ball. We need to impose our will on the other team.

    Offensive line needs to be more aggressive, especially in the second half. Need to get more aggressive on D. Need to dial up more blitzes. I guess more aggressive on both sides of the ball.

    Offense needs to play better late in games when we have a lead.
    Against CS had one 3 and out and a int in the 4th qtr.
    Against EWU we had consecutive 3 and outs in the 4th qtr.
    Against SDSU we had two 3 and outs in the 4th qtr.
    Against UNI we had two 3 and outs and an int in the 4th qtr.

    Does anyone else see a pattern here?

    I said it in an earlier post, offensive line seems to get weaker as the game wears on.

    Not in the Iowa game where we didn't have a lead.

    At no time in the 4th quarter of any game did it look like we were actively working towards a score.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    When we have the lead of course.

    Fans in the stands if where the most improvement is needed. The top of section 7 was very disappointing at the SDSU game and it hardly ever seemed really loud.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    It can be boiled down to one thing.... uninspired offensive play calling. Other teams know what is coming. Bison offensive bored by unimaginative play selection. Just power all the time.
