As I said earlier. If none of your QBs can make basic throws in this weather (which would actually be not be all that surprising), then put in an athlete and do something to let the QB be a rushing threat.

IF you're going to continue to play Knapke you MUST take shots downfield at least occasionally. At this point they're basically just daring us to do that.

And I have no idea why our top 2 RBs weren't on the field for 4 straight downs...mind boggling...
If you can't pass, it gives you more run plays. Do it.

I could be wrong, but it looked like Moore was barking at Knapke out of frustration.
GO BG!!!

Are you watching this? The field is literally lifting off the ground.

Oh my .... they might actually have to call this game now for an unplayable field. There is a lake under the field.

Or set up like the service academies in their run heavy formations.

That may be enough to force a delay.

I know there has been a lot of rain, but that field shouldn't be puddling to that effect...the bubbling definitely shouldn't be happening.

If the representatives of FieldTurf (the company we first use on the turf and didn't used again), they're gonna have a field day!

I agree. We went cheap and didn't go back to FieldTurf (the brand). You get what you pay for.

Absolutely not quitting. Playing tough, really for most of the game.

Some questionable tactical coaching calls, but the kids are playing hard...in a monsoon.

These are the type of games where it's really difficult to draw any long term conclusions about players or coaches...all bets are off in this sort of weather.
