I have really enjoyed the play calling this year. The RB seem to get a series of plays instead of one play and then out. Would like to see lore Cain and Engel but I do understand RJ and shep are the guys right now. I think we have used TR more like his than all of last year. Mess is not trying to out think the other team like TP used to try and do all the time.

Well stated. This sums it all up. They are taking what the defense is giving them. There is less of a forced feel to anything. Even times when it seems they could be setting up something later doesn't seem to be a throw away play. You can do both. You can pull defenses into a certain look and be productive.
I think the Bison offense is still a work in progress, but I like they are not forcing the same thing over and over again trying to will a different result. Yesterday they showed you can break a team in other ways.
I see this thread and I realize that I really haven't thought about the play call that much this year. And that's a good thing. I'm sure if you went back to previous years you'd see me bitching about this or that but this year, not so much. I do also think the we haven't really been tested either but so far, I'm liking this offense.
Don't matter. FIVE-PEAT!
Just thought I would leave this here......

Leistikow: Iowa football's run game is broken, and it's a big problem
Agreed. We need to keep their air raid offense on the sidelines for extended period of time. Here's Stig post game interview,

" Our strategy for winning against BISON was simple, we put our WRs and RBs in a 1 on 1 situation with their defense in the backfield.....everybody knows they have some freshman who cannot tackle in a 1 on 1 situation.....Joe Glen"
This should change this week. Even though as a team Indiana St isn't very good their run defense is stout. They're tied for 20th in the FCS allowing only 2.97 ypc on the year. They shut down Illinois St's rushing attack yesterday limiting them to 56 yards on 36 carries. Robert Morris is statistically the best run defense the Bison have faced this year and they're at roughly 80th in the FCS allowing 4.33 ypc (but the dominant Bison run game has inflated all of their opponents run defense numbers at this early point in the season).
It'll be interesting to see if Messingham and the Bison run game can keep things rolling this upcoming Saturday.
I like Mess a ton. He actually figured out how to defeat defenses who crash the middle without taking a half to adjust. His use of outside runs is simple yet effective.
I love the 3 running back set. The long Bruce run was so awesome with Lance and Cofield executing 2 beautiful cut blocks. It was a beautiful thing to see. Then Bruce catches a pass in the same formation.
I like how he seems to get the TEs involved in the offense
