No new injuries to report from the game yesterday.
They are going to have some meetings, and will have some again tonight and any changes to the two deep, they will get out tomorrow. So nothing new on the quarterback situation until tomorrow afternoon or early Tuesday.
On Bowling Green running so many plays, says they have to get the defense off of the field. Need to do a better job of sustaining drives and if they do that, then they aren't on the field for as many plays.
The message to the team is that offensively, they have to be able to throw the ball and take advantage of the opportunities they have. There were plays available that they weren't able to make. They need to throw the ball consistently both horizontally and vertically to do the things they want to do as an offense.
They need to be better on the money downs. Need to do more on 3rd down if they want to win. Says they also can't settle for field goals. Knew that in the kind of game like yesterday, can't come away with field goals inside the red zone, need to come away with touchdowns. Points out two possessions where they had the ball 1st down at the 23 and the 11 and came away with field goals and 1st and 10 at the BG 40 and come away with nothing.
Says that again, it comes down to fundamentals and techniques and trusting those things. Says they had a chance to go up two scores and Will Likely fumbles the punt. And then they have an INT in the end zone but it's called back because of a penalty.
Praises the punt return unit for their blocking yesterday. Says that the kick return team did a good job as well with the exception of one return and also the punt unit did a good job. Again says fundamentals and techniques need to be consistent.
On defense, they need to get off the field on third down. Will go out today at practice and make the corrections for next week. The team needs to know, every week is different and every week you have to prepare to play your best.
Says that Craddock has been working on the pooch punt with the punt unit.
Guys did drop the ball. It's something they will be addressing and they will go from there. Some of the drops, the ball could have been in a better place, but they will work on it.
Says the offense needs to utilize every weapon
