-  I was very concerned with the blocking, or lack of it in the center of the line. We kept trying to run it up the middle, (too much in the second half, when we started to bog down) and the plays went nowhere. Even on Moe Neal’s long run, he had to bust it outside, then cut back to get around the mess in the middle. Neal had 19 yards in 8 carries other than that play. Dontae Strickland had 20 yards in 9 carries and Jordan Fredericks 10 in 4 carries.  Those guys are all capable of breaking big plays but other than Neal’s big run they totaled 49 yards in 21 carries, 2.3 yards per carry. It didn’t help that we didn’t seem to have any variety in our running plays but that’s not unusual in this era of one back backfields. You would think completing 34 passes would open things up, but it didn’t. Dungey was sacked three times and in each case, the pressure came from up the middle. Louisville has a fellow named DeAngelo Brown who, per Lindy’s is “a rock in the middle of the line…a disruptive bull of a tackle. Remember Nick Fairley against Oregon?

-  Those receivers aren’t going to be wide open against Louisville. Dungey isn’t going to be able to play catch with his receivers next week.

-  Yes Cole Murphy had a great game with four field goals but Dino Babers will never be happy with a game in which we get more field goals than touchdowns.

-  After the game Matt Park congratulated  Amba Etta-Tawo on tying Art Monk’s record for receptions in a game. Why is that a downside? Two reasons. AET didn’t know who Art Monk was. And he hadn’t tied his record- Erv Phillips did.
