Why are we running the ball up the middle..

[bigblue_07]

Makes no dang sense.

 

[mdlUK.1]

Trying to shorten the game.

 

[cats2010]

Stupid

What else are we supposed to do? Johnson has fumbled the ball twice and is clearly rattled.

 

[matt_man]

Anything but up the middle.

UK has been doing it for years...

So that we're not one dimensional. That's football 101. You abandon the run and Alabama locks in on our passes and turn us over.

Running wide on Alabama's speed does not work.

Makes no dang sense.

Stoops needs to ask Gran that question.

Makes no dang sense.

Going more north and south is one thing. running up the gut of Bama is suicide, coach.

He needs to get out of the damn pocket instead of acting like he is running the old statue of liberty play. Scramble my man.
then WHEN you wrap the ball up with both hands, dont let them rip it out.

Killing the clock

We love running it up the middle on 1st/2nd down when they have 8 guys creeping into the box....we like to see if Boom can fight his way back to the line of scrimmage. Then we let Johnson pass on 3rd and long and wonder why things don't work out.

I'm really tired of this crap. This experimenting with defense only coaches has to stop. We have the most one dimensional game plan in football. This is just hot garbage we are watching. What good is establishing the run to control clock when you are already down 35 points. And it's not like we are controlling clock anyway. Score some points damn it. Put up some sort of a fight.

How do you know? I've saw us get stuffed about 18 times up the middle

 

[shutzhund]

Makes no dang sense.

Think maybe it's their defensive ends.

 

[Wildcat-in-STL]

we wait until we're down 30 to try the wildcat offense...........LOL

 

[BigBlueManSouthCentralKY]

Scared. Playing to keep it close.
