Not me...last year for the 3rd game we destroyed MAC team Kent State 66-0. While NI is better, this amount of talent on offense shouldn't be struggling to score and only scoring 13 points. All his fault? No. But I feel like the play calling isn't playing into the strengths of this offense. #armchairqb

Yeah...calling BS that you weren't panicking after the 1st 2 weeks last year...the noise from everyone after the Navy game and Virginia Tech game was that JT wasn't all that good, the offensive line was terrible, Elliott wasn't good enough to replace Hyde, Urban was losing his luster, Tom Herman was terrible at calling plays, Warriner was a terrible o-line coach, and Fickell/Ash sucked...a win over Kent State didn't change that narrative, as it was still there leading up to the Cincinnati game, and didn't go away until the win in East Lansing.

Teams get better as the year goes on. This team is going to get better, and they aren't going to sleep walk through their Big Ten games (well, some of them)...everyone needs to take a deep breath.

Agree. This offense should be able to fall out of bed and score 13 points. Play calling has been terrible, but there is NO excuse to look like this two weeks in a row.

They won't be if Alabama beats Ole Miss tonight.

I think we're dropping to #2 regardless of any other outcomes.

 

[Soar]

That was a Browns play. Need 3 throw for 2.

 

[Jordan]

This offense is awful.

 

[Tlyons]

Defense better get first dibs on groupy pussy tonight.

Offense: sloppy seconds.

QBs: Blue Balls

 

[Akron330]

Run the fucking ball up the damn middle, play to your strength. I can't stand when coaches try to get cute

Panicking? I though most people, including myself had low expectations after the news of Braxton came out?

 

[Tlyons]

Of course Jalin Marshall did that

 

[Soar]

That's a fumble for sure.

 

[Akron330]

thats a fumble

 

[Jordan]

Has anyone said how awful the offense has been today?

Go back and read the thread after those 2 games...the sky was falling for the entire future of the program...Urban and company were only going to win 10 games a year, but nothing significant...it was comical to read after the fact.

Yes, I consider that panicking.
