100% agree---near the end of the first half, calls timeout to get the ball back. Gets the ball and runs twice into the line--and instead of trying to score, actually Ohio gets the ball back (good use of timeouts) and throws a Hail Mary into the endzone.

Then, in the third qtr with 5 minutes left, calls timeout on a fourth and 1 at the 45. Coaches that are well prepared would have a fourth and 1 play already chosen and not have to use a timeout there. All the timeout does is let the other team know you are going for it and allow them to set their defensive scheme.

Yes, I know that we got the first down, but that is not the point. The point is that we wasted a timeout, near midfield, with 20 minutes left in the game. Certainly hindsight, but that timeout could have come in handy later in the game. And, it is something that I questioned when it happened.

Again, two horrible uses of timeouts and clock management. This is habitual with this staff.

I will certainly never question some scheme stuff and even personnel usage because the staff certainly is much more in tune than any of us. However, simple football things, like clock counting, application of two point conversion stuff, is common fan stuff and I firmly believe that we botch these things continually.

Ohio was vulnerable to the middle/slip screen all game. The fact that we can't run those plays is an extreme source of frustration watching these games...

Seriously, it was the "Senior Day Curse". The emotions just get all out of whack and things get strange. We have to face that on Friday...

This. My prediction is Toledo wins by at least 3 touchdowns. Have fun in the MACC

Not so fast! Do not under-estimate the power of PJ, the former Huskie! With a He-Man sword pointed to the sky, he will also ride on the channeled strength of Diesel, take down Toledo in yet another MAC upset -- to bring back his pride, send NIU limping to Detroit, and unfortunately nixing the MAC's lone ranked team. :)

Where do you buy your weed? Please share. If you guys win I will buy a WMU oar if they sell them....

Rockets are the best team in the division this year. Sometimes you get the breaks and sometimes bad breaks go against you.

With the QB situation the way it is, do we want NIU to get into the championship game right now anyway. it would be a bloodbath. I think its even going to be a bloodbath with Toledo facing BGSU. You get that skilled BGSU offense indoors, yikes, they are going to put up a crapload of offense.

If the criteria for getting benched is a missed block, it would seem that the entire O line should have been benched last night! Yes the missed block was big but I have seen Huff make some good blocks also, like it was his block of 2 OSU defenders that got Turner into the end zone!

He's learning. He's gonna make mistakes that's how you learn. His upside is huge because he's a playmaker.

Do we beat WMU last week without his stiff arm/80+ yard TD? Followed by another huge run that got us out from deep in our own territory that lead to a score.

OU outplayed us last night,...but....We needed a spark last night and instead RC (or Bob Cole) kept that spark in the doghouse.

Agreed, i have no gripes with JB getting most carries. He's had a fine season, but when he hasn't done anything all game long and you're down late in the game you should start giving some carries to your play-making RB to see if he can bust loose some runs.

03-lmfao03-lmfao03-lmfao BG is not THAT good for Pete's sake! Toledo beat Friggin Arkansas, Iowa State...they've had a good year. You have BG over rated IMHO.

IF NIU does get to the MACC, my family and I will be in Detroit to support them 100%.

This team deserves all of our support. And if they get to Detroit as many fans as possible need to be there.
