O-line play

[MSUDC11]

Was an underrated part of our problems tonight.

24 carries for 87 yards... 3.6 yards a carry... Guys that sucks when you’re going against a three man front. I realize Marks and Johnson are not Kylin, and we’re just not going to run it a ton, but we’ve got to be able to run it better than that when we do run.

Watched them all night. Couldn't move 3 men 1 yard. And #10 linebacker knew every play. But they love to pass block. That means the draw plays suck too.

In this offense, you zone block not road grade. Hence your running yards are due to the first level running past you. Hate it if you want but it is what it is.

Yep. 5 guys to block 3 guys. Then If the RB broke past the DL, He had 3 LBs waiting on him with no blocking.

Doesn’t help when your only two running plays are the draw and inside zone
