Good start to the game, but once CMU discovered that Kurtis throws but doesn't run and Armani runs but doesn't throw, the offense disintegrated. Maybe we should put them both in for some plays so the opposition doesn't know what to expect.
The O line improved as the game went on. Fewer QB pressures and sacks, and it helped during the last drive. Too bad they couldn't finish it.
The D line came up big when needed but needs to put more pressure on the QB and get more TFLs. Part of the problem with the run defense was that the offense couldn't stay on the field for much of the 2nd half. CMU had 80+ plays to our 50 or so.
Kicking game: ugh.
The good news is that we have Akron at home next week which should be an improvement game. Looks like there might be rain during the game, but we should go to Fiami at 1-1. Just like every year, sweep the division and we go to Detroit.
I didn't realize that our last MAC loss of greater than a TD was in 2015 (I think Golic said 2016, but it wasn't then). We lost three straight by a total of 97 pts, the last being a 62-24 drubbing at BG on, oddly enough, Wednesday Nov 4.
BTW, tomorrow (Nov 5) is the seventh anniversary of the Phantom Safety.
We will get by.
We will get by.
We will get by.
We will survive.
