Have been stagnant without him. Let’s hope they figure a way out to 1. Get a running game 2. Protect the quarterback 3. Find a playmaker 4. Need a speedy receiver that gives deep threat to get everyone out of box Wow, that is a lot to work on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjim Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 What is the status of Reese for the NIU game? He gave the offense spark that Lee could never provide. I also liked the couple of plays that Hayes Kennedy had in the game. However, I would guess that they would try to save him and red shirt him. He should have three more games to play this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWAkron Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) I think the torrential rain forecast for tomorrow in Chicago can only help the Zips. Or not. Edited October 26, 2019 by NWAkron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akronzips71 Posted October 26, 2019 Report Share Posted October 26, 2019 Long pass play on third and 1? The announcers are calling Arth one of the brightest minds in college football. Please hire someone dumb that can win. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Ward Posted October 26, 2019 Report Share Posted October 26, 2019 Cant we just line up with Dbl TE and 2 backs on 3 and 1. Why are we trying to be cute .. Come on ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981 grad Posted October 26, 2019 Report Share Posted October 26, 2019 The team sucks. But the play calling should not make things worse. Third and one and you need to keep the ball. Get the one yard with a run or quick throw instead of throwing the ball 30 yards down field to a receiver surrounded by 5 defensive backs.

Who is calling the plays ? It all starts there.Do we not have enough TEs or backs to run a heavy formation in short yardage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipsoutsider Posted October 26, 2019 Report Share Posted October 26, 2019 When you have no line, you try to get the ball to playmakers who can can make things happen on their own. The Zips would be smart to run some plays getting the ball to Knight and Wofley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does that say about how well those 4 in the backfield were prepared as to the rules and how to make sure you stay out of those situations or recognize it quickly and correct it? I know this team is young but we've got assistant coaches all over the place. Can't we expect better than what we're getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Ward Posted October 26, 2019 Report Share Posted October 26, 2019 Cant we start playing some of the freshman who have been standing around all season. We have nothing to loose. As I see it right now we are insane. We keep doing the same thing with same personnel . Getting same results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyZip Posted October 26, 2019 Report Share Posted October 26, 2019 Sorry, guys. This is worse than Ianello ball. I'll watch some more first halves this year, no reason to waste 3 hours. Hope for vast improvement next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
