Week 2: Montana @ Washington Game Thread

I never expected us to contain this offense. The only thing that sticks in my craw is they never had to settle for a field goal.

Even better...they had to punt twice. Plus the pick-6.
 
Thanks for pointing out that the play calling was 50/50 with regards to runs and passes. That highlites my exact point, if you can't run the ball against a defense like Washington why keep trying the same play time and again with little or no gain. After watching the Griz game I tuned in to Boise State and Washington State, Washington State could not run the ball at all 27 rushes 22 net yards (a couple of big sacks make that stat worse than it actually was) but Washington State has a "real coach", he bagged most runs and went almost totally pass - 49 of 67 for 433 yards and they won a game they should have lost. If Stitt is such a great innovator, where was his adjustment? What happened to his great "fly sweep" or what ever its called?

Will you guys get off the 'where's the fly-sweep' argument? It's been beaten to death. It's hardly ever run, even by Stitt back at Mines. Its motion is used to determine defensive assignments/alignment. Let it go.

Not to mention UW has the speed to neutralize such a play.

Fly-sweep, by-sweep call it whatever you want but the RESULTS from this offense are pathetic. The players want to play but when Stitt replaces half the team (2015-2016) and then continues to run an offense that hasn't produced the yards or scores who else is there to blame? There is a reason that Stitt's offense is not run at the FCS or higher. Athletes make plays and team speed disrupts (destroys) this type of offensive scheme. Huskie's defensive scheme was speed; I'd say it worked pretty well. Unfortunately they are not the only team with exceptional speed that we will face this year. We shall see how compromised we really are when we get into conference games.

It time for a change, unless we want more of the same. It time for Stitt to go.

If you honestly think we're going to face another team this year with THAT kind of speed, I've got some oceanfront property in Arizona I'd love to sell you.
