Dawson is what prevented us from a title. We probably need a new OC

We lost because of the blocked punt…

Dawson got us here

Hetherman got us here

Mario got us here

And the whole staff deserves a lot of credit for this season, putting together this roster, and fixing a lot of issues from last year.

Staff is going to make mistakes but we’ve come a long way these last few years. It was Indiana’s year.

We will be back here soon

Yes he was the issue this year 100% but the real issue was personnel our WR's besides toney and QB were extremely limited and didnt fit his playcall. But as OC he should adjust and call plays for our strenghts.

The second offensive possession where we threw 3 straight times and punted set up Indiana's 10-0 lead
 
OL didn’t do any favors in the first half. Stupid penalties. Couldn’t even get a drive started. Outside WR is mediocre

I don’t fully blame Dawson

His down fall is he sucks at scripting early drives and most OCs thrive there. His in game feel and playcalling after he gets a drive going are immaculate. 2nd to none in college. The malicat stuff wasn’t good for a few games, aside from that, he’s the best 7-10 play drive play caller we’ve had in 30 years
 
This too CJ catches it but when he does the db is all over him all season. We needed a star wr for a game like this and we can’t get them. We can get the overlooked small ones but them 6’3 dogs we can’t get
The one postion whereby it looks like we needed more talent is WR. Other than Toney we don’t have another game breaker. We have some good players but only 1 special WR.
TE didn’t give us much all season and this game was the same.

Part of me doesn’t agree. The other part remembers IU was dropping 8 in coverage and we didn’t run when Carson threw that pick. Seems like Dawson handed over the game.
It was pretty obvious Indiana’s secondary was trash. That’s why they hid them all game playing zone. They clearly did not want to play man at all. For the life of me I don’t get why Dawson never adjusted. Indiana wanted us to just run it down their throat. That was the whole plan. What they didn’t want was us sitting back and throwing all over them. The second you see them dropping into coverage with three linebackers on the field, you know exactly what time it is. You’ve gotta make those LBs cover. Period.

how at UM of all places we cant get a Jeremiah? We win that game with him im sorry to bring it up but it did cost us this natty IMO. OSU still haunting us and we beat them
 
Team loss too many mistakes, offense had it going second half and defense gave up drives. I’m hurt but we’ll be back soon

Trumpycane has been saying imagine we landed a freak like JS with this offense, Toney in the slot with him is tough
That was the natty that signing day was the national championship. No true Cane fan better ever celebrate Mendoza as some hero of sfla ever. If anyone does they are cutt off period


Or Jeremiah
