Junior Hemingway is Clutch

Yes we're all pumped that Denard led us to another last minute victory, but lets not forget the guy who made 2 spectacular plays, including that jump ball that put us in the RZ with 21 seconds left. Props to you Junior, here's to hoping you don't sneeze and hurt yourself this week. Hemingway, Stonum, and Roundtree are all going to need to have huge games against MSU, because their LB core is all going to be playing QB Spy all game long.

Denard will have to have better deep accuracy to have a chance next week. 3 deep balls where we had single converage, or a man open behind coverage where he didn't even give the receiver a chance. 

Obviously not criticizing Denard (guy is superhuman), but to be a great team we gotta execute what is given to us.

I'm hoping that the reason he overthrew all those deep balls was because he was a little extra-hyped for his first Big Ten start (on the road, no less)...

"It would be a travesty, it would be ridiculous to all of a sudden come back and get the feeling back, get the health back, feel good again and then all of a sudden go throw some other colors on my shirt and go coach."

There isn't a LB in the game who can catch Denard in the open field.  The only way any team will ever come close to rendering a healthy Denard ineffective is if they have a 4.3 CB spy on him.  There aren't many of those in the conference.

Huge plays by Hemingway today.

As for the long tosses by Denard, I would much rather he underthrow it on those one-on-one deep passes than overthrow it to tacopants, b/c the receiver can either adjust and try to come back for the catch and either make the play or get the defender to steamroll him for a free 15 yards and a first down.  As a counterpoint though, that's 15 less yards for Denard to run, tough call.

In my opinion, that deep ball to Hemmingway at the end was purposely under thrown. That jump ball is always advantage receiver when it's under thrown. Like you said, worst-case it's a pass interference penalty on the defense.

Hemmingway sure brings an added component to the offense - size at the wideout spot. It'll be a big matchup problem for lots of CBs. He's a beast!

I think the hit Denard took as he threw the ball took quite a bit off the pass.  I think he was lucky to get the ball to go that far at all.
