Am I the only one that felt Indiana in the first half

We are the most scouted program by our opponents. If they can get a leg up on us because of our lazy preparations or lack of creativity, then it’s our fault. I know the rumors before the game that they were using AI to some degree to game plan, the truth is, even that can be mitigated. The script needs to be flipped, with us scouting our opponents to shreds. If we do that, our playbook in their hands means $#!t to a tree.

Any team that isn't using AI models is going to be falling behind fast. There is so much data available and teams that know how to use it will have a big advantage. Not just statistical data but even positional and vector data (where players are on the field, how fast they are moving, etc). AI is far more efficient at identifying trends and patterns across those data sets than any human.

Then self scouting, knowing your opponent is looking at the same data, how can you use that to counter or exploit them in key situations?

Once everyone has caught up it always comes back to individual matchups (your dudes being dudes) and coordinators who can feel the game and break tendencies to keep a defense guessing.
 
Surprised they were stunting into the A gap? No. Sitting on your couch, you knew we'd run there.

Surprised our oline couldn't move them? Yes. Undersized dline moving laterally and you can't move them? Almost like we didn't practice how we'd handle their stunting.

Heck, it didn't surprise me that it took dawson until halftime to adjust. That's been him all year. Dawson's flaws seem to be in video study and game planning. He often seems to mix up his notes and has his "what not to do" sheet get mixed in with his "do this" stuff.

But why did it take an entire half of football to stop giving them 8 yard outs. It took an entire half to finally come up and play press.
Uhh Xavier Lucas is why
