Simien's scattershot accuracy + several drops= bad offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Winston didn't look good tonight. USC and their new offense was very impressive. I know it's very early, but there doesn't seem to be a team in the country that is leaps and bounds better than everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 28, 2014 -> 08:27 PM) Hayden Fry had the visitor locker room at Kinnick Stadium painted pink in 1979. It has remained pink ever since. Tomorrow an Iowa professor will be organizing a protest saying it is sexist and homophobic. I hate the word homophobic. Hate it so much.

cabiness42 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Dammit. Between West Virginia, Clemson, and Wisconsin, I was hoping that at least one of them would take down an SEC team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, let's give him 3 carries or whatever in the 2nd half. This is just me, but after last night's struggle, I think they should try something different at QB. Maybe grab a safety or something and let him start. Mix it up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course once they lost 2 key defenders to injury LSU started to move the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 i think Fitzgerald is going to have to step back and realize that the golden boy luster CAN wear off, and stop having some of the bizarre press conferences he has had the past couple years.

Maybe that contract is weighing on him I think that he is also realizing how important recruiting blue-chip talent is in football. He had his early successes with his "system" guys or finding diamonds in the rough. Sure you can have good seasons doing that from time to time, but it is hard winning year after year with that method. Get a few injuries or a good player wants to play "closer to home" and suddenly that system doesn't run as smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
