WMU Postgame Discussion.

Hopefully Joe More is back next week to slot in at RG/RT

You’d think he’d slide right in at RT

 

[BVille44]

Was it Petry at RT for the remainder of the game? I couldn’t tell. Will he get the call or someone else? I think they moved More inside because he was having difficulty on the outside.

Yes. Petry played RT.

 

[UpstateSM]

I'm not sober is Gadsden okay?

 

[Dinkyspond]

you mean like getting Purdue to think he might play?

For 2 consective years on the back half of the sked, Dungey was listed #1 on the QB depth chart despite injuries (concussion one year, broken foot the other). He never played a down for the last half of both of those years. I suspect it will be the same for OG. If he's got a high ankle sprain, his season is over. High ankle sprains are 8 weeks minimum.

 

[Cuse House]

Did anyone catch GS saying at the end of the players press conference that Ellis and More are both expected back next week?

yes we heard that

 

[hoopsupstate]

Can someone explain why we didn’t run the ball in the first half? I was shocked at that.

I’m not sure this line can run block. It’s my biggest concern with this team. They open very little holes.

8 weeks minimum? They are typically 6 weeks.

If true, much-needed reinforcements.

Could be they got whatever they wanted every pass. WMU was horrendous against the pass.

 

[JustPherU]

I say 7 weeks

 

[hoopsupstate]

The good news is both injuries look like ankles and not knees.

 

[stuckinbig11]

I sure hope that ACCN shows a replay of the game this week. My ACCNX and ESPN+ kept conking out in the first half, so I missed all the TD drives. ACCNX was fine in the second half, but the game was a bore.

 

[blizz]

My knee looks like a potato right now

 

[shandeezy7]

I only watched first half as I had a party to go to.

We scored 3 points in the second half?

Did they do a running clock?

Did CDRW look like crap?

What happen?

I had a number of IPA’s today (and a Guinness at the Irish Fest before tailgating), but I could’ve sworn the 4th quarter was a running clock or something different. I also rubbed my eyes after eating nachos with jalapeños and couldn’t see much for a while, so that might be totally made up.

 

[OrangeFoo]

Not sure if this judgement can be based on todays game. They were facing cover zero with many men in the box. They didn’t try to run until it was obvious to everyone that they were just trying to burn clock. They only time I remember them intentionally running was end of first half and they had no problem then.

 

[Lukeyloo]

I would think that’s possible. Would be par for the course with Dino, make them have to game plan for him.

 

[Orangefizz]

Hard to say since we haven’t seen him, but he was a game day starter at Richmond

 

[BKCuse]

I'm guessing Wolhabaugh is done for the year and we'll be lucky to get OG back before Clemson.

The good news is we have real depth at WR so I think we can be 4-0 w/o him but gonna need him to get a W in those next 3 weeks

 

[dwilmont44]

It will be very interesting to see where the Purdue spread opens

 

[FrancoPizza]

I presume they went to the pass to save some mileage on LQA.

what? If anything I think Ike Daniels has much better wiggle and vision at finding the hole. Not thrilled with LQA honestly. Just doesn’t have that burst that we need in this zone blocking scheme. Better utilized as a 3rd down back in passing situations.

 

[phreddie]

But is it shakey?

Maybe we keep OG out until the last 5 games if he can recover by then. Those 5 are all winnable.

 

[FrancoPizza]

Maybe true to some extent but I think we need better production from LQA if hes gonna be RB1. The backups seem to be a better fit for the 1-cut zone blocking.
