Says he still has a lot of confidence in this team. They need to make the necessary corrections and will continue to prepare Mon-Fri. Felt they had a good week of preparation leading up to this game and looking forward to playing better next week at Penn St. and getting back on track.
Did not handle the weather as well as we thought we should and that is on us for not preparing well enough.
The wind, the rain, we made adjustments. We knew because of the wind and rain it would be one of those games and we felt we had a good game plan coming into it, but clearly it didn't work out. If you watch the tape, we just didn't finish some of hte interior blocks which would have helped us have some big plays and get going on offense.
Not singling out the RBs, but they didn't do a good job blocking today, allowing the Wisconsin LB to get to Lia too often.
It wasn't a light rain, there were times it was coming down pretty good. Our center and QB were both struggling with their grip on the ball.
Wisconsin took a little better advantage of the elements than we did. It's the Big Ten, you are going to have rain and wind and we have to do better.
Mason Lunsford has been in concussion protocol since last week. Also added earlier that Rakim Jarrett suffered a lower leg injury.
Told the team that sometimes the best laid plans don't work out as well as you want them to and that is what happened today. Lia had to take his visor off of his helmet because it doesn't work well in the rain.
