This will be the repository for your thoughts on the offense and general hot takes regarding the offense for our game against Penn State.
Also, people have asked about it, so if you have rebranding ideas and want to call these threads, something else, I am listening.

We executed a routine beatdown of an inferior opponent.

63, 41, 45, and 49 points in each of the first four games. Noice.

One of the things that makes me kind of excited about the Wisconsin game is the nice adjustments to the ground game. I do not expect 326 yards and 6.7 yards per carry against Wisconsin, but I am intrigued to see what they can do against them. That was a nice performance - 6 rushing TD from five different RBs.

Each week we fix something. This week it was OL and RB. Can't be more proud of the effort.

because he couldn't step up into his throws. a couple completions were also poorly located because of this too. not much more i would expect him to do there, but he definitely wasn't sharp under pressure (other than making plays with his feet)

like screens and dumpoff passes. Throws it too softly and inaccurately for some reason.
He's good when he just lets it go like the TD to Asassi.
Haven't seen any back shoulder throws yet.

I agree. I definitely think it seems like something is not quite right after that hit he took last week from Awuzie. Hopefully he's back to 100% soon.

Yeah, he scooped that low throw right up. Great catch!

Run game looked better. Penn State's D is not too good though. Regardless, I'll take it. They will need some kind of run game against Wisc. and MSU. They won't have to rush for 250+ yards, but something to keep the opposing defense honest.

is a thing of beauty

at the play afterwards.

I believe they won't need the cat despite all of the candy cane doubt and lack of confidence around this site. However, if they do insert and fully activate the best there is, things will be booming! Stallions Jehu and Jourdan can take his spot on special teams fine enough. Use him just on offense and defense. Boom goes the dynamite. They aren't going to kick to him now any damn way.

Speight has to play better. It sounds strange after a 39-point win, but that level of inaccuracy will not beat good teams.
September 24th, 2016 at 7:24 PM ^
that he can consistently make good throws. he was all over the place today.
i can't understate how much he's impressed in terms of his pocket presence, but that only goes so far. our offense isn't going to have such an easy time on the ground next week, and we better be able to get first downs through the air on a consistent basis. that combined with the rash of drops thus far this season has me pretty worried about next week.

That was a completely dominating performance today, in every phase of the game. It's amazing to me that so many people focus on the faults. Guess there's lots of current/former coaches here.
Speight looked fantastic in the pocket today, shedding rushers like Big Ben. Yes, several of his passes were not on target, but we had zero turnovers - that's critical.
I disagree with those who think we can't win big games with the QB we have, as he is. As long as he makes plays at critical times and avoids mistakes, we have a chance against anyone. If our D plays up to its capability, we'll be in every game.

Wisconsin's front 7 is very good, but their secondary looked pretty meh against MSU - I think Colorado was better in the back 5. A similar edge attacking game could be profitable, especially if we unleash Peppers and Chesson and Speight get back in sync.
