Defense leaves a lot to be desired.

Light years ahead from last week.

Take a look at the stats and I am not sure that is true.

I think the D is playing pretty decently. Mixing things up in coverage, blitzes, been burned a few no doubt but I will take it

Agreed, but have given up 294 for 6.7 per play.

Damn, when you put numbers to it. Still will take it. Thinking about that 6.7 PP, fake numbers from a few big plays.

Me too. Gave up only 13 points. That's what's important. And the 53 yard qb draw probably won't happen again. Secondary/safety depth an issue. Alexander/12 seems to be getting more plays. Note that Delaney is out for season.

Need to come out prepared in 2d half. That doesn't always seem to happen. Think of last week. PSU. isn't nearly as good as EWU, and no comparison at qb. Also, Griz will get the ball to start half. Plus, half of the Griz fans won't be out of stadium tailgating for much of third quarter this week. That's one benefit of an away game.

Exactly what I was thinking. Helpful the second half does show improvement from last week though.

Who feels comfortable with a 13 point lead?

f***[*] liar!

Good one! :thumb:

Can't imagine that anyone would!

On the other hand, the Griz were out-gained in total yards (294-258) but still do have that lead. It helped that UM has a slight edge in the running game (144-130). Jensen is 12 of 19, so that's not too bad.

What halftime adjustments would you make, on either side of ball?

Play count is 50 (UM) - 44.

Few big plays .

Griz continue to be 100% in the redone this year. Big improvement from last year. I agree with the comment that TD's win games, not FG's, tho.

Really like the DOLA attitude out for what the tv can show

And it is PSU and Not EWU. We can throw many qualifiers on it, but it is still almost 300 yards at half.

I would do unnatural acts for the 3rd quarter opening drive TD.

Big game stuff happening out there today. Think we get out of here alive?

13 points and a lot of yardage this week. 14 points and a lot of yardage last week, with points left on the table by EWU. Again, EWU's offense is much better than PSU's and more explosive.

 

[PlayerRep]

I think PSU will try to stop the run this half.

You must be a Cat fan.

Not a good start

A 3 and out is not a great start of the half.

Control clock 1 minute 20 seconds yuck

 

[Bear Axed]

So....I guess that Three and Out is the Crowds Fault for not getting back in after the half?

I'd help out a stranger for a a big opening drive
