*** Official Northwestern Game Thread ***

Yep. I'm a "Run the Damn Ball Guy" but if you see that your O-line can't even get you 1 or 2 yards, you have to adjust and lean into what is working.

If I'm Whipple stick with your passing game, mix in some screens, and maybe in the 2nd half dial up some zone-reads instead of just basic inside zone. That depends on what they're seeing from Northwestern's edge players. 

It's like Whip's O at Pitt.  When you have a Hypeman contender and 2 receivers close to/over 1000 yards and the Biletnekoff winner pass all day.  I'm just sick of seeing an NU OL that can't when the LOS against a P5 team

We have some wonky defensive alignments so far. Letting them have the strong side

True frosh. Good luck.

Pat Fitzgetald rarely has 2 bad seasons in a row. It seems his teams respond well when they are coming off a poor season.

no. This is not a good NW team. We just are not good 

 

[mwj98]

[LumberJackSker]

Chin just cant dial up pressure.
