looks like they live by the run
The young QB throws it a million miles an hour. Nobody can catch it. He is actually decently accurate, he just throws too [deleted] short routes, and puts no arc under the ball. It reminds me of watching that Wisconsin transfer throw. Very interceptable pass but it is almost impossible for a defender to hold on to.
This is going to be great, old school football. They have a great line and a great stable of RBs. Strength on strength with their o-line against our d-line. As the game went on, they blew Purdue off the ball. I'm really interested to see how we do, and if our depth can keep a solid effort for all 4 quarters. Very different from anything we have played against this season.
If we are able to force them to throw the ball 35-40 times, we win.
If we can grab an early score it is really going to help in the game. Their d-line is awesome. I expect that we are going to have to leave our TE to block in this game. They will rush 4-5, play a zone in the middle with LB and S, and then man up on our outside WR. Gallup/Page are going to have to show up and make some plays across the middle, and the RB will need to make some plays in the passing game. The deep seam with 83 will be open if we can afford to get him out in the pass pattern, but I don't think it will happen.
