Seriously? That literally happens all the time.... That being said... The offense overall is seriously anemic.

Good point. I was hopeful someone kidnapped Vigen for a bit. We will never be anything but Mediocre with Vigen as OC.

Our pass protection doesn’t look too great so far. Hopefully everyone is just rusty

Well... Very uninspired play.. Everything is waaaay too vanilla. Hopefully this is an offense-wide hangover to losing Chambers on the third play and not just another group with no deep threat, thus opposing defenses loading up for the running game... But I'm not optimistic.

Is Vic Koenning back, at offensive coordinator? I haven't seen such an unimaginative vanilla offence for years. Mix it up Bohl. Makes me ask - when does basketball start?

I don’t think the play calling is the problem at all. The problem is Levi is holding onto the ball for too long because he isn’t good at making decisions yet throwing. He looks like a freshman playing against a better team than Georgia St. so Vigen hands are tied more. Also the offensive line doesn’t look good in pass blocking either when Nevada’s front 4 can get pressure that easy with no blitzing.

When Chambers went down it turned into a bigger problem then I thought it would. Levi doesn’t seem ready for this yet as far as quick decision making is concerned. I haven’t had a problem with the play calling. The problem has been the execution.


And other than the goal line stand the defense is horrible.

Wasn't he a walk-on?

I'll take the 3 for now. But we need more points going forward.
Someone on the other board mentioned something about him not traveling with the team.... no clue why, just saw that mentioned.

Totally agree... Somebody on that offense need to help Levi out.... He is not ready.... I'm not to upset with the defense... These air raid offenses always chew up the yards, two mistakes have resulted in two touchdowns.

Our run game, the strong point of our offense, isn't getting a rhythm because after running on 1st down, Vigen decides to pass.

Not a lot of bright spots yet. Very fortunate to still be in this one. Hopefully rust, jitters, and just need some halftime adjustments.

Gotta get the passing game going. Screens, slants, something to just loosen those guys up a little.
