Great, we are going to play a QB that runs better than their starter and we...don't stop the run very well and have historically had issues with mobile QB's.

Sounds awesome!

Better to have game film on him from this week than to find out about the switch next week.

 

[IthacaMatt]

there are some busts I'd like to be tackled into, but Babe's is not one of them.

well done!

I will still take my chances with Wimbush over Book.

Remember that time when Brian Kelly killed a kid?

The pain train is coming and it’s next stop after Saturday is up Wimbush’s ass.

I hope Flop St doesn’t pull the upset and decrease ND ranking before we get a shot at them.

That escalated quickly.

I think that they try and go with Book v Cuse

I don’t think history hurts us here. That we couldn’t stop a runnjng QB in the Marrone era prob doesn’t impact our game with a new coach and players.

It’s just a different look.

Think Wake Forest last year and any game this year vs the run.

 

[TexanMark]

We have our own running QB who is pretty darn good...let the chips fall where they may.

Just like a dry track and light winds on Saturday

I’m aware of issues vs the run. I just don’t understand the “history” of problems vs running QBs that people cite. I don’t think it’s unique to us. And I can’t remember any running QBs this year that have hurt us.

SO far this year we haven't really faced a "running QB" where last year we faced a few. I am more concerned about facing a really talented ND team that can run the ball and now has to lean on a run first QB.

We struggle with QBs who can make throws into windows we give up.
Or if you have Lamar Jackson speed.
It’s more we struggle with good passing QBs though. We can spy a running QB but if they got 4.3 speed it’s pointless.

Wonder if Shy could be a spy? He has the speed and power to be effective in that role

I said the same thing to shy yesterday at breakfast. Told him to tell the coach he wants that assignment

UConn's QB is a running QB and I believe he got us for over 70 yards.

ISBN thinking about it - this bodes well for us.

what team really doesn't have trouble with a good running qb?
