Hopefully no more talk about "smashmouth" football after the performance on the goal line today.  Both the ridiculous slant pass and the failure to even attempt to gain a foot on fourth down are a coach's indictment of the OL, an alleged "strength" of this year's team.  BTW, anyone realize we could just as easily be 1-4 right now: Wake outplayed us until their QB went down, and of course last week was a gift.  Rutgers owned both lines as reflected in yards and TOP.  Note also they had a touchdown called back, just like Toledo.  And while the D played hard today, and had to play too much because of the weak offense, they too often can't get off the field on 3rd down, or commit a stupid penalty to keep drives alive, or help lose field position.  I think too many alums (like me) want DM to succeed so much, we tend to overlook the poor preparation, bad execution, lack of adjustments, fire-drill confusion (burning TOs) and mental errors.  Unfortunately today, in a day of errors, we made the last one.
