Houston Christian Game Preview

I still don't see us putting up 60+ again, not because I think we'll struggle, I just think that's so hard to do back to back games, regardless of quality of opponent. You gotta think that if we get up 21+ by half, the starters come out to preserve their health for Michigan, just as a matter of course.
I believe they will try. I think these coaches are trying to send a message to their own team. I also thin Holgo likes to score and keep scoring. Not like Rhule has stated in the past about getting a lead and milking clock.

I think it's less likely we shut out another opponent than for us to put up 60 on them.
 


...I'm sorry, what? They think Iowa is going to put up 41 points against someone?

Several points there that I agree with. Only to add two things: 1. Our true capabilities are as yet unknown, and will pan out over the season, and even this game will be a test of that leading up to Michigan which is a test of another sort, and 2. There is a bit of a conflict of philosophy of the game itself between Matt and Dana and it appears that Dana's is prevailing and that is a good thing.
 
At the end of the day, football is still about being able to run the ball and being able to stop the run. Those are our biggest question marks. Unless the Michigan game changes my mind, we are still in trouble.

Yeah those darned pesky passes distracting us from what football is about and stuff. Eddie Cochems should have been taken out back and hanged.
 
I’m going to try really hard to get interested in this game. Maybe it’s the perfect game before a big game. Don’t know Im trying to find a purpose for it. Keep a routine , maybe?

I’m watching this game to see if they can continue the great execution we saw last week against a different opponent. Is there anything different they do? I also love watching the 2s and 3s play and getting experience so they can step in if needed during conference play.

Thats why I’m watching this weekend. That said, I hate these kind of games against teams that we should just roll over. But, I’ll still be watching.
