ND can basically run the ball all game and play defense and this should be a blow out.  They will need Riley Leonard to do something passing in this playoff though

Yep. They're pretty much just running the ball and throwing screens. Why not? I mean, it's very low risk and it's working. Probably not gonna change it unless IU forces them to.

I loved the IU coaches vibe in his introductory presser….not so much anytime else I have heard him talk.   They ain’t ready for this type ball.  

Yeah, he's a legit coach. They just don't have the Jimmy's and the Joe's to compete with top 10 teams but the dude can coach.

They aren't losing because of scheming and coaching. They're losing because ND's backups are probably better than their starters.

No doubt.  Coaching only takes you so far.   You need to those 5/4 star rosters at this stage of football.  

I’d like to see the breakdown of IU’s roster vs ND.  I doubt it’s that close.  The weaker talent is going to get exposed bad in the playoffs,

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
