Rice Game Analysis

This game was lost in the first half when we got completely away from what made us successful last week. Specifically passing on 1st and 2nd down. Today I don't believe we passed a single time on first down until way late in the game. Why would you immediately get away from what worked so well, and you are continually getting stone-walled by their run defense. Next thing you know it is 21-3.

Secondly, the defensive coordinator needs to figure out how to stop a draw after it is called and and run with unbelievable success what seemed like a million times.

Bull's-eye on your analysis, Diehard. Last week, when LaTech knew we were a running team, Bartel threw on first down with regularity, and really got the Bulldogs back on their heels. This week, did we ever throw on first down?
