Oline need to give the quarterback Breylin time enough to throw! Layne Hatcher not once had to tuck and run because hus O-line gave him the time! Yes it is the same old same old not protecting Breylin ! Also really missing Rochell on defense! Tell me why would you put your starting QB in the game with one minute left and you are trailing by 20 pts? Breylin took some licks!
I was just coming here to say this (and put it in my recap in the ASU thread).
Pass defense was not good. When we gave Breylin time, he made the throws and our stud WR’s made plays.
Pass protection, secondary play, and running game are the three keys for us after game one. Next week will tell us a lot as far as how we’ll stack up against our FCS opponents. Petrino will have his team ready to go.
