We will be lucky to be bowl eligible after dropping that game to IA state. No way we beat Oklahoma or Kansas.

1. Yes

2. In the first half, 2nd half was horrible

3. Yes, I thought they did okay. Cooper's drop was the only one I recall, and he took a shot on that.

4. Worse than last week, I don't think they had a good 2nd half, the 1st half wasn't bad.

1. Green is fine, it's the PLAY CALLING!!!

2. Watson needs to go.

3. I do like some of the younger receivers.

4. O-line, the same.

5. Did I mention, Watson needs to go?

 
Play calling is mysterious. Again, nothing to hang our hat on. Glad Cody is out there. He's not a superstar yet but Lee is just a waste of time. O-line coach needs to be replaced still. WR coach is certainly not impressive with his product.

 
Well most of us got our wish, a Cody Green start. To be honest, Cody Green starting did not seem to matter. I believe Lee could have started and we would have had the same outcome. That is a very sad thought to ponder. If there is one thing we learn from this game it is that the offense is Watson's fault. His play calling is sh#t. I about freaked when I saw us run that option play at the end of the game with two inexperienced backs in the game. The O-line does not have a mean streak and we couldn't gain 1 yard when we needed it repeatedly. By the way is Robinson hurt? As for the defense, they once again won this game for us. I firmly believe that when Crick is a senior he will be just as if not more dominate than Suh. I know Suh was double teamed all game but still 5 sacks is impressive. I am fearful for next week.

 
They looked a little better this week (if you take away the freak aspect of last week). This only adds to my belief that it's an entire offensive problem, not just the QB. Green did fine, though.

1. Green seems much more confident and able to make better desicions, and if Watson insists on running the zone read, Green needs to be in.

2. No

3. No

4. Well, we got stopped at the line a lot by Baylor. So...

 
Why, on god's green earth were we running an option play with less than 2 minutes to play on our own 30 yd line??? Does Watson not know that the option ( ran by a non option team) has one of the highest % of turn overs. Why take the chance of turning it over and giving BU possession on their own 30?

Unbelieveable............ :hellloooo

1, Green is not ready to be the starter, he was no threat to complete anything but screens as swing passes in the second half and Watson knows it.

2. Needs to learn to run out of other formation other than shotgun. Options from the gun with the back getting the ball 6 yds behind the line of scrimmage are not going to work with our talent level.

3. Fewer drops, but still no explosion.

4. May be the reason for the struggles since VT.

You can only do so much on offense when you have a OLine that can't block anybody. Barney Cotton is the problem, has been the problem and will continue to be the problem.

 
I have to agree that our offense wasn't much better with Green at the helm. It's becoming more evident that Watson needs some serious overhauling.

Green really ads that 2nd dimension, But I was not impressed with his throws AT ALL. But I say at this point we stick with him.

Watson on the sideline was for sure better I think, He COULD* really coach the players and interact with how things were supposed to go, but as far as the play calling, I thought we got into more run formations but then ran stupid behind the line passes or predicatable bubble screens. This needs to Stop, we need to use the run to set up these plays not vice versa.

Receivers caught what I thought they should, Cody threw the ball a little high at times.

O-line has been garbage the last 3 years, and next week will really show.
