We may have to watch those long WR screen type passes out wide in the wind if there are any defenders close to line of scrimmage 

The scramble drill type of pass plays may become pretty dicey.  Seems like on a lot of those he has to loft them in there, and generally does so perfectly....but with a 30 mph wind those perfectly lofted type of throws could hang and get picked.  

Maybe we see a bit more of Quincy in for running, or maybe even Romfo for a play or two.  That said, don't get too cute unless you really need to. 

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Quincy run that was any longer than a Tommy run.

I swear to God people, Quincy is NOT a running qb. He’s large and strong and has been great at grinding out those qb sneaks but he is a POCKET PASSER. Watch his hudl film.

If it becomes a "Soggy Bowl" (even on turf) I believe Romfo has won a couple messes like that in his HS days.

I never said he was Eric Crouch.  I meant if weather conditions are horrible he could come in and power run up the middle and possible get 3-4 yards on occasion.  It's turf though so it's not going to be like it's a sloppy muddy field.  It's mostly going to have to be on the OL and Hoos to get it done though, and maybe more Ziebarth than normal this week.

I like when Smith and Red get outside the tackles and on screens.

He did take off for about a 10 yard scramble against Southern Illinois in one of his only snaps as a traditional QB this year

I’d rather have the RBs hanging onto the rock in inclement weather. Hood in particular seems to have rock solid ball security. What a great trade he has been for Otis. All around upgrade.

Agreed, just wish we had him for more than a year. Does UNI have any other really good backs they don't need next season?

I don't think we've seen Red on a true sweep lately either, might not be a bad time for one.  I think on those Tommy just kinda pushes the ball up and forward slightly, if he bobbles it and drops it.....incomplete pass.

No matter the weather, no matter the crowd, just play smarter and more physical. I expect a dog fight. Hope we have a couple of guys who surprise us with a big play!

Mentioned by the Kelly on the podcast today that Skokna may be returning this game. Saw him full pads on this weeks episode of Day by Day.

Yeah Mitchell was suited up for the SDSU game I know.

I spoke with hid Father and he was excited to see him finally suited up.  Mitchell has had some tough breaks.  Man if we could have some breakouts with Dennis, Skona and Mitchell against SU.  How much film do they have on them.

Given they average giving up about that on the ground, and the crappy weather conditions (meaning we will probably run more than normal).....we better get at least that or we are in trouble.   Checking the hourly forecast for tomorrow, hope we win the toss and can defer, looks like chance or rain will be less in the second half.

Skokna back soon or is he out for year?

Good morning from Terre Haute. Weather is going to be a factor today for UND-Indiana State, although it appears more with wind than rain (which should clear off by mid-morning). Temps in the low 60s.

[Nodak78]

Let's find out if Hoos is a mudder.

[forksandspoons]

Let’s goooo! Just win!

Sounds like he may be back for this game.
