This. This. This. 
They run routes seemingly expecting to be blanketed. No urgency. No breaking it off and coming back. It’s as if they don’t want to help the QB. I watched just the receivers on several pass plays and they seem to be following coaching edicts like automatons. Little separation or improvisation and the TEs are invisible. It’s almost bizarre. And the university is paying these coaches.

I’m a total armchair QB, but I find the lack of WR scheme/urgency/creativity baffling. 
Harris is mightily inconsistent and emotionally demonstrative in ways that maybe don’t help the team. 
Alford at 6’5” was in for one series I think. No targets. 
You don’t have to be a riverboat gambler, but shake it up a little. Sharrod Johnson has risen to the top by default. Queely is rarely open. Where’s the smoother Nykiem when you need him? Oh yeah…Kent. 
At some point you throw caution to the wind. That point was midway thru the first half-ish. 
On offense there is no straw to stir the drink.

Kudos to an inspired defense.

And now we don’t play Rutgers for awhile and they can dagger us with this game on the NJ recruiting trail. Sh…ite.

I blame myself for caring do much about a fookin’ game. It’s just that our troubles seem so unnecessary.
