D$ and I break down the news coming out of UM's bye week, what to expect from NC State this weekend, and where the season can now head entering the back half of the schedule.
Those second and longs are killing us. We need to be more creative and get King out of the pocket to make teams respect his running ability. Right now they are clogging the line and killing two birds with one stone. They are taking away the run game AND destroying passing lanes. We have to make changes.The OL didn't suddenly get worse. The DLs got better, and Lashlee's getting too predictable in his calls.
On top of that, when you're as basic as we are on O, we rely a lot on tempo for our success. When you're in 2nd and long right away, coaches get scared about going tempo and having a 30 second 3 and out. So, we're standing around looking at the sidelines and then running basic plays into a D that is set and is also getting coached up while we stare at the sidelines.
