What I Would Like to See vs Colgate

[Archbold44]

I want to see 3 QBs. Angeli for 1st half. Collins for most of second half. Someone else get snaps at the end of the 4th. You never know when we will need QB3 to play for a series. Best to see some live game action.

If we need to use Angeli the whole game, we can expect this year to be like 2011 or 2014. Don't worry about bowl projections, it aint happening.

I would like to see a metric sheet ton of ‘Gate 3 and outs.

Here's the baseline based on the last 8 FCS games.

James is not the guy to use. He can only run in a straight line. If he had football skills he would've been a 5-star with that speed. Maybe try him on a wheel route or something, that's about all you can do.

You been to practice?

240 on 42 carries. Get there and that’s a good sign

strange spread. We have been 24-40 pt fav the last three times we played them. Would we really be 5 pt fav vs Vill when we were 7-10 pt fav vs Uconn?

Can I get in on the bnoro car payment fund?

That spread is a scary warning sign. Big flashing neon red lights.

Where you see that?

Yeah, the site I pulled it from was misleading. Definitely didn’t make any sense but as they say…. Vegas knows.

I expect at least 3 scores.

 

[NineOneSeven]

That is not the spread. Sagarin has it at -25.5 if it were to exist. Which it doesn’t.

So we are winning by 11 now!

Like to see some well thought out and executed screens.
Plus getting Collins reps in the second half.

 

[PhatOrange]

Not a chance if he's banged up a bit as some suggest.

He didn't look banged up to me when he scored the touchdown to take the lead.

True, we will not learn a great deal playing an opponent like Colgate. That being said, I would like to see:
1. A focused, sharp team. No stupid penalties.
2. Domination by both OL and DL.
3. A more creative running game. For example, we have James, an extremely fast RB returning kick-offs. He's not going to get a chance to return kick-offs because top level teams will kick it through the end zone. Develop some plays for him as an RB to use that 4.2 speed.

Good list.
I do not understand not getting James involved in the offense some way. Not saying he needs 20 touches a game but use him on sweeps or get him in space with short passes and let him use his speed.
With the porous nature of the Oline maybe we go with a rb and valleri as a fb/hb option. Assist with pass protection, run blocker, runner and could go out for passes like a traditional te. He has been great at catching the ball but he is versatile and we need to maximize his abilities and protect the qb and help in the run game.

Dino liked to whoop up on his pancakes! Those Holy Cross run totals from 2024 are scary - actually made me feel better about how we are starting this year

We are 39 pt favorites on a Vegas site
