Pass, pass, pass. Offensive line cant block.

However, I gotta say that if we can get QBs and WRs like we had in Walt's day, I think this can work if Narduzzi's D can stay legit

I was thinking about the same thing. If we could get receivers like Coach Harris recruited with what we have already then this team could be really good. I think the offensive line will be legit next year. They are all coming back except for grad transfer tackle
 
I saw that too. I was wondering why he was spiraling so much.

At least Whipple seems to understand the futility of trying to run the ball a ton when you can’t.
 
Not really. We had 372 yards passing on 51 attempts. We had 24 yards rushing on 25 attempts. It was obvious after the first few drives that Pitt couldn’t run but they did it anyway
You have to mix the run in some to back off the DL and to keep the safeties and linebackers from overplaying the pass, especially if you’re a pro-scheme offense. That’s a fundamental principle. 25 runs to 50 passes is about as pass heavy as it gets-especially when 9 of those carries were the QB-and at least half of those started as pass plays.

If PSU didn’t have to respect the run at all, it would’ve been a long day for Pickett.
