LMAO!!! iSu has shut down every offense in the second half. Not just the worst offense in the league.An interesting point, but it shows you didn’t watch the games you’ve cited. TCU scored a TD late after we turned it over trying to play catch-up. We also had two other TD ps off of TOs where our offense gave the Defense a short field to defend, which wasn’t their fault. Also, we had lost the entire right side of our O-line to injury, which gave TCU more offensive series than they otherwise would have gotten, on a day where it was 120 degrees on he field.
Texas Tech was a night game with the fans attempting a blackout, and 7 of those points came on a pick-six, somthe defense only gave up 28.
WVU had one TD on a blocked punt (not the defenses fault) and one TD on a pick six. So again, WVU only scored 25 against our defense, and again, our speed of play on offense leaves our defense with more series to defend. Oh...and WVU’s final TD came on a 13 play drive at the end of the game, when the winner had already been decided.
OU? I already explained that we had the same number of defensive series at the end of the first half as you had at the end of the game. Our defense isn’t responsible for the fact that your offense is slow and plodding.
Otherwise, nice thought.
Oh. Two more things. You didn’t mention what we did to Texas in the second half, when the Longhorns were playing dime and daring us to run. Our defense held Texas to one possession in the second half that wasn’t a three-and-out.
Second...ISU isn’t a good offense.
OU- 0 points int he second half
TT-7 points in the second half
TCU- 0 points in the second half- only points they scored were a kick return
WV- 0 points in the second half
Our woeful offense put up 38 points in eight possessions against OU. Just like your oSu offense.
But since I am talking to a fan with a high football IQ...I'll ask a question. Which defensive schemes do you think work better against a team that is successful running on the perimeter, is good at the horizontal passing game, can't turn up the middle and struggles to stretch the field? 3-3-5, 4-2-5, or the 4-3?
