What a difference between the 1st half & 2nd half.

For all the complaining in the 1st half (me included)...major props to the coaching staff for their adjustments in this 2nd half, especially this 4th quarter.

 
Also, if anyone wants an example of why we should never have Jake Cotton pull, watch that 1st down run play right before the TD. Watch how Cotton cheats before the snap in how he lines up off the LOS. You can notice it in how far his hind parts are out compared to the rest of the lineman. It's easily recognizable to see how he cheats in his alignment, and it's easy to know he's gonna pull on that play when he lines up like that.
That's disappointing. Think it's coached that way?
Sorry I have to disagree. Yes it is coached that way at a Lot of schools all levels. You'll also notice narrow or wide splits sometimes depending on what block they're trying to execute. If anyone wants an example of why someone that doesn't understand blocking schemes and fundamentals shouldn't post about it....

So we going to keep this offensive line intact?
If there's anything I've learned about this staff it's that practicing well means more than playing well....so i doubt it. I can't come up with any other reason that Sterup got the start this week after the disaster against MSU.
