- Defense has 3 of its better defenders out and Heatherman had his guys locked TF in. Absolutely saved the season early. Blitzed from all over the field, with 5 different players, and when it failed it was because the blitzer whiffed, not the blitz call.

- Best game by Wilson to date, very consistent and problematic for Wake. If that level of play can be relied upon, across the entire D, I’d inch our ceiling up a little.

Now I’m going to slam it right tf down.

- Dawson needs to file a police report, because someone stole his family jewels and he let everyone know it. That man coached out of spite, I won’t believe anything different. He’s way to smart too not even attempt to have a target beyond the LOS for three straight drives, when he had a profound position advantage, and are one score away from the game ending. I’m ******* ****ed at how cowardly he called the second half. Absolutely disgusted.

- I’m not sorry, this OL is an awful pairing with this run scheme. You cannot run power with this interior set, I don’t care how much you believe in it. Stretch the **** ball, their DT is getting through anyway. You can’t win games with a first down efficiency rating of “flaming dog ****”.

- Also, one of two things is true: either 4 has regressed in his ability to pickup rushers, OR, this will shock you, THE INTERIOR CANT PICK UP THEIR ASSIGNMENTS TO SAVE THEIR LIVES.

- Mario peed down his leg, twice. First time was at half, second was that OBNOXIOUS FG kick. You go for it or punt. Theres no other option. You’re still only two scores up IF HE MAKES IT. Awful.

- Injuries. Injuries. Injuries. Injuries. I’m crying man, the injuries.

- I have a theory on what happened to Mensah, but I’m not Thanos and in love with Lady Death. If nothing else, Dawson must have gotten into his head and threatened to emasculate Mensah like the jewel thief did to him.

- WHERE IS COOPER

Was this a win? I don’t really know how to answer that, but we scored more than them. Which is always good.
 
Guards and center are TINY compared to last 3 years.

Its unacceptable that they didnt portal guys in.

Their hubris has resulted in the worst O line in recent memory. All bc they want to play the guys they recruited.

And this run scheme will be the worst its ever been bc they refuse to adapt.

And now guys will begin to get injured bc of missed assignments.

Mensah needs to find his balls and tell these coaches that changes need to be made.

I try to give the coaches some benefit of the doubt.

Seems like Mensah was laboring and Dawson tried to scheme around it to protect him (get the ball out quickly).

If Mensah was that beat up, I don't understand not going to Nickel.

Oh no doubt, the injuries to the stars affected them. But you had multiple chances to just get a first down and put the game away, and you relied on power runs for a yard and throws behind the LOS. Thats losing football.
 
Knowing how to tackle is basic asf. If you need Lucas and OJ to shore that up, then we've got some real problems because OJ is made of glass.

3 weeks in and the OL still don't know which guy's to block.

Outscore WF 31-7 get a roughing the passer call, and we can only score 2 pts by a penalty while they score 14 and luckily they didn't hit that wide open TE in the flat and had another one.

Seems them dudes thought that U logo was going to be enough to beat a team that went toe to toe with Purdue, except WF never gave up.

Seems these guys thought they would be sitting on the bench by mid 3rd qtr and it showed.

Damari Brown is a liability I’m sorry.

LBs need more rotation especially in passing situations. Hetherman picked up on this.

O-Line needs changes interior.

If the opposing offense is running quick game you are going to have to come out of soft zone and play man. Especially when the pass rush is not getting home.

Tackling was a big issue tonight and it gave me flashbacks. We are not getting 11 hats to the ball like we were last year.
 
So much of why the defense looked good tonight in the 2nd half was simply because the offense gave them nothing in the 2nd half. If the offense scores one more touchdown this game never feels close.

Playcalling was putrid offensively.

We’re also lucky Gio Lopez missed some easy throws.

The injuries are insane, not much else to say: **** luck.

I do wonder if the coaching staff got scared Mensah was gonna get more injured if they drew up longer pass plays but who ****** knows.

Just poor execution & coaching, happy they won but very discouraging.
