Not enough Courtland

The deep ball to Courtland needs to be in every series.

I agree we need more CS; however, he is great running the ball after a catch so
hit him short, hit him over the middle, hit him on the sideline. He has the ability to
go up and get the ball or get an interference call. He is very impressive.

Things that were not done

1.throw up the ball to Sutton and let him get it. If he did it against tcu he can do it against jmu
2.throwing screens and quick hitting passes and get pressure off of the QB to open the passing game. Handing it off to west and jones to take pressure off the passing game stops working once they realize there's an 80% chance the back is getting the ball
3.very few designed runs by davis. It opened up more the second half but every game the offense has moved because the D has to account for his legs. Obvious oversight by the coaching staff

I agree we ran the ball too much. At least it felt that way during the game.

The only advantage we seemed to have anywhere was our WRs and we didn't really exploit it.

We need other WRs to step up. Davis needs to find other receivers running uncovered in the secondary. Missed 2 last nite including in final drive. Jermiah Gaines was running free all by his lonesome and everybody in the stadium except for Davis saw him. I know there was another.

Kevin Thomas made a great catch and I think Castille had 3 catches including a key 3rd down conversion.

I know exactly what you're talking about. Could hAve hit him on the post for about 60. Also on the play davis fumbled Thomas was WIDE open in the right flat for a first down right next to the sideline. He just cannot see the field..I was yelling about this the whole game

Head scratcher for sure. Opening drive was really weird. Malone is capable and not sure he got a catch? Bad game plan + it doesnt seem like Davis finds his 2nd or 3rd option

He was staring left the entire game yesterday. If that is going to continue to be the case, we should never, ever line Sutton up on the right side of the field. Ever.
