After a dominating performance last Friday, it’s tough to find areas for criticism. But I feel like the run game was certainly lacking the punch it did in the opener vs. Tulsa. I mentioned in a previous article that Justice Hill didn’t have his best game, and in general the OL was lacking physicality to open up large rushing lanes against an inferior opponent.
But also there are other components to the equation that lead to lack of success. In my film study, I found two plays that I wanted to highlight to bring some clarity as to why.
