Is this the thread where random people with no experience talk about how they would engineer an offense to beat a top 10 pass defense without fail?
Yep.... you're right..... there's nothing ISU could do to take advantage of OSU's aggressive defense because we just don't have the talent or the speed..... so teams should just copy what OSU did to us and we'll never win another game again...... got it.
Well if the other teams had the talent that OSU has your overreaction might work.
Do you think ISU has the speed to do these things consistently?
I did it in a video game, which is a simulation of real life, so yeah.Is this the thread where random people with no experience talk about how they would engineer an offense to beat a top 10 pass defense without fail?
You don't need speed to burn a blitz. Some very simple play calls can do it just fine, and many don't even involve getting your OL downfield at all.
If we can't beat teams that bring pressure on us all game.... then we're doomed.
brock had a terrible game passing

Yes, you described our role exactly.Is this the thread where random people with no experience talk about how they would engineer an offense to beat a top 10 pass defense without fail?
We should have. Our defense was lights out.... and if Breece doesn't break two really great runs we get our doors blown off.
Louisiana had 3 big plays against us basically and that was it. Today we broke two great runs and that was basically all we did offensively. Two lapses on defense by OSU.
Definitely not all of them, though. He was pretty rough vertically even when not pressured... it just wasn't his best day. That alone isn't the end of the world, but his supporting cast caused him plenty of other issues as well.
If we didn’t play any games we’d be 0-0.
I'd say 100% yes. I really want to offer up names we should try out at WR but I don't even know who goes out there other than Hutch because they add so little to the team. Nobody is ever open, nobody can make catches in traffic, nobody can ball track well. I see they're all tall dudes but they haven't shown that they have anything to go with that.
Agree. People calling for Tom Manning’s job are ridiculous. He’s not going anywhere. Let’s look at the body of work and stop being so reactionary
CMC wants the players to be the best versions of themselves as possible, we should expect the same from the coaches. If our ceiling is limited by coaches, bring in better coaches. If our ceiling is limited by the players, recruit better players. Otherwise we're a 7 win program with the occasional 5 win and 9 win seasons. Not bad from where we came from but is it what we want?

Milton is not coming back this season. Hutchinson is good but not elite. We don’t have any other good receivers at this time. Maybe something will click with Shaw, Akers, or Scates but it hasn’t at this point so I would get used to hoping we’re not playing from behind as we’re not built to make up deficits. Doesn’t mean we can’t go 4-1 from here and make the big 12 title.
