What a difference a week makes. Congratulations to Coach Morris on his first victory as the leader of our Mean Green! It was nice to see that the staff made adjustments. The defense came out in a 4 man front a few times and they didn't give up a first down until the 10 minute mark of the 2nd quarter. We gave up 432 yards this week, which is a 16% improvement from last week. On offense, we had 47 rushes for 249 yards and 41 (25 completions) passes for 313 yards. We produced a total of 562 yards. There were 0 turnovers which was nice. The team had 9 penalties for 115 yards tonight. I am sure there will be a big emphasis on this during the next two week. Regardless, we won last night. GMG!

 

Observations:

Chandler Rogers was efficient and made plays last night. He had a great command of the offense and did a fantastic job throwing the ball. He completed around 60% of his passes (24-41) for 313 yards and 2 TDs. Additionally, he ran for 45 yards. It seemed most of his runs were for first downs when the pocket broke down. Overall, he was very impressive!

Roderic Burns was great all night as well. He was open all night and made several big plays for us. He has 11 receptions for 134 yards. Also, shoutout to Ja'Mori Maclin and Damon Ward they caught both of Chandler's touchdown passes.

Ayo Adeyi the La Tech killer had a hell of a game. He had several big runs for us last night. It seems he always does well against La Tech. I was excited to see him step up tonight. He ended up rushing for 148 yards and 2 TDs. Also, shoutout to Oscar Adaway who had 44 yards rushing tonight. He had multiple tough runs that set up first downs for us.

Shout out to Noah Rauschenberg and Sawyer Evans tonight. If Pat McAfee watched our game film, I am sure he would be excited to watch these 2 guys.  Noah drilled a 25, 22, 48 and 31 yard field goal (game winner). Sawyer Evans had a 64 yard punt that pinned La Tech deep. 

The defense played much better tonight. They gave up 82 yards less this week, caused multiple 3 and outs, and also had a few big stops on 4th down. I was encouraged to see the coaches make adjustments and play us in the 4 man front on some drives. Shoutout to Mazin "Amazing" Richards who had 5 tackles, 3 for loss, and 1 sack. It was nice to see him blitzing from the edge again. Rob Brown had 3 QB hurries tonight. He did a great job on the 4th down stop late in the game as well. Kevin Wood was our leading tackler with 9 total (7 solo). Logan Wilson was solid in coverage and had 8 tackles (6 solo) tonight. The 2 redshirt freshman Patrick Smith and Ethan Wesloski continue to have big games for us. Patrick had 7 tackles (2 solo) and Ethan had 6 tackles (3 solo). They both did great jobs making tackles in space. Bryce Linder also had 6 tackles (3 solo). It was nice to see the defense respond to the adversity they have faced the last 2 weeks. I hope we continue to improve each week and add more wins. GMG!

Not sure where these stats came from, but they don’t include Adaway’s fumble.

I had the stats from Mean Green Sports up this morning while working on it. It's possible that either I missed it, or they didn't have it updated properly. I can update later this morning when I'm back on my laptop.

Got it.  I recalled the fumble and confirmed it on the ESPN box score a few minutes ago.

Trick play gone south....

It actually would have been a long gainer had the exchange been better.  Instead of Adaway handing off the football he flipped in the air to the guy coming at him and it bounced off his chest.  Hard to judge speed of a ball flipped at you opposite direction of 5 feet...just hold it out and hand it off and all would have been good.

And if my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle.

The play was absolutely unnecessary given how successful we were playing it straight up. Not only was it an unneeded risk (that failed miserably and was a big momentum and point swing) but it showed future opponents the play. Just a terrible call and a sign of overconfidence from a staff that has no right to it.

I was trying to remember the last time we had a qb with over 300yds and no turnovers? It was great to see his deep balls. I hope we see more 4 man fronts. If we are going to fill the box , I would like to see more of a commitment with an actual 4-3-4 with some size. Might be a chance to get Rudder in the loop? Summary was great.

Got the dub and hope the team continues to improve and make adjustments as there’s some tough competition coming.

One point I missed, on the fumbled reverse, Adaway didn't look at Horton on the pitch which caused the missed connection.  If Horton had caught that, he was flat out gone.  LA Tech's defense was sold out to stop Adaway and had completely lost containment on the backside.  Just a lost opportunity on a play call that really caught the Dogs off guard.
