Zero Touchdown Halfs

[84GRIZ]

In four of our five losses we had a full half where we had zero touchdowns. We actually had five of them during the year.

Northern Iowa - zero points in 2nd half, held on for win.
Portland State -zero points in 1st half - lost
North Dakota- zero points first 3 quarters -lost
UC Davis - zero points in 2nd half - lost
MSU - 3 points in 2nd half - lost

Some of is the play calling, a couple of them (ND, UC Davis and MSU) turnovers, probably all to an extent tie into not having dominate Oline. I guess in my mind a lot of this falls on Rosie but also how the Oline limited our offense

We also had games where we gave up 46 straight, 41 straight, 23 straight and 29-3 runs...Ironically the same games...Who’s that on?

Well a lot of it is turnovers (UND and UC Davis which are the two big ones you listed)

Probably a mixture of everything, but as I stated in another thread, I believe teams wore down our lines overtime. Sort of the opposite effect we eventually saw in Hauck's first tenure.

i pointed this out earlier, and that the previous coach had (i think) three scoreless halves in three years years. but blame it on the o-line.

Interesting that nobody seems to want to blame it on scheme. Afraid to point out the obvious I guess...

The offense for not controlling the clock.

Not the answer you wanted. However IMO Semore 2.0 needs to go first, and I think he will.
