That game was rough to watch. I am glad we escaped, but after watching this one and Ball State...you don't have a ton of confidence for WMU & Buffalo road games. We need to turn a few different corners quickly.
Buffalo was my road loss prediction, I've backed off a bit since they barely beat UMASS and then lost to Akron. It's a long way to November, so hopefully we figure it out (and they don't), but a post thanksgiving game in Buffalo.... NO THANK YOU.
Since our BALLS loss, it's hard for me to figure out who is Jekyll and who is Hyde, but I'm still confident in the team building into Miami, Western... those will be tough ones, especially if we're battling injuries.
We're getting better about pounding the rock, and sticking with it. That was always my gripe with Albin I felt like we would abandon the run entirely, then randomly go with 3 straight runs up the middle and a punt. Next series, 3 straight passes and a punt. I like our mix. We still need to lean on Sieh more. I'd give him 25 carries if I could.
I'm not *that concerned with Parker, you take the good and the bad, but damn if I don't wanna yank out my hair when he keeps taking grounding penalties. Buddy hates taking a sack more than anything in the world, which occasionally he'll slip out for a big run - but other times... INT across the field, grounding, etc
