For some extra context, here's where our past and future opponents currently rank for passing offense: North Carolina: 50 Rhode Island: 76 (FCS ranking) Nevada: 99 Iowa: 127 Michigan: 129 USC: 20 UCLA: 95 Maryland: 12 Illinois: 84 Rutgers: 102 Penn State: 57 Wisconsin: 78 Average opponent...

As a fellow former band member I agree. In addition, I would say that there should be some extra railing or something that discourages students from trying to rush the field through the band pit. Then, field rush protocol can become "Stay put in the pit until the field is clear enough that it...

Storming the field after an upset is something I view as unique to college football (maybe it happens in the NFL, but I don't think so?). It's stupid that the SEC fines schools for this.Glad the B1G has shown they won't do this. As far as the safety angle, Slab is right, it's generally easy to...

I actually view this as an evolution of Fleck's version of Tressleball. If you look at our last drive, it is textbook Tressleball. Run the ball, bleed the clock, force the opponent to use up their timeouts so they don't have them when they get the ball back. If USC didn't have their timeouts...

Wouldn't shock me if PJ has the players adjusting their schedules (within reason) this week even before they travel. Obviously they already practice in the early mornings (unless that's changed since PJ first became HC), but I wonder if there are other things they do during the day they can...

That, and because USC's only other loss was to Michigan, who lost to Washington and proceeded to drop from #10 all the way to #24. So now USC has a loss to the #24 ranked team (who has 2 losses) and an unranked team (with 3 losses). I bet if Michigan had won in a convincing fashion, and moved...

Better than beating Penn State in 2019? Just curious, what makes this one better? For me Penn State in 2019 still takes the cake, but this one is a solid #2.

Hope you're wrong with regards to Penn State too 😉

Looking at the video, I think PJ was yelling at the ref about exactly that based on the pantomime he did. I wonder if there were USC players who did that and didn't get called.

How are you feeling now?

UCLA hasn't scored more than 17 points this season, and we will be the second best defense overall that they have faced (Penn State beats us out at #4 total defense vs us at #5, and they just played today). 34 - 9 Gophers

They've done it since the Penn State win in 2019 I think? Had too many times where the students try to storm the field through the band pit and it's a safety issue.

I would say we definitely are the best 3-3 team in the country

It all depends on if we start to use up-tempo on offense as our primary play calling scheme. We nearly came back from being down 3-21 vs a top 15 team by switching to go up-tempo. If we stick with that I see us winning against the rest of the unranked opponents on the schedule (UCLA, Maryland...

I don't think the team as a whole in undisciplined. Honestly, if you remove all of the false starts from the center I think this feels on-par with previous seasons.

He's doing great IMO and I think we're just going to see more of him on the field in the second half of the season. He's going to have a great career here, only downside is I 100% expect him to leave early for the NFL. I hope I'm wrong and he's one of those players who wants to exhaust their...

The first drive of the Michigan game, we had some good running. What happened as the game went on to cause that to quickly go away? Did the Michigan DL adjust? Did our OL get tired? Did we stop calling those running plays in favor of other running plays? Did our RBs get tired/banged up? I...

Someone changed their best in the second half and it showed. Was it PJ? Or the OC? Someone else? Hard to say. Whoever it was, should keep that change moving forward and we might salvage the season from complete ruin.

If we played the 1st half like we did the second half we win that game. Which switched to a more up tempo offense, which prevented Michigan's defense from subbing out, which tipped the scales in favor of our OL, which improved the pass protection and allowed Brosmer to execute. Good adjustment...

Announcers agree that offsides call was BS
