I think we we need to go back to huddling up and milking some clock between plays and sustaining some long drives and GIVING our defense more than a 30 sec break. Our defense needs all the rest possible and lets be real our no huddle offense is not yielding points. Lets slow the game down!

could not agree more----this is not rocket science----but nobody has ever accused Messingham as the second coming of Einstein.
 
You don't have to huddle to slow the game down. I do agree that going uptempo against Baylor is beyond stupid. I don't get ESPNU so I don't know if ISU is actually doing that or not
 
No. We need to go as fast as possible. At least then we have a chance of the defense screwing up. Right now, we're in this half *** deal that rushes us a little but not really the defense. I want this thing to be Indiana fast. I haven't seen anyone move as fast as they do.
 
While on the topic of offensive strategy, why in the hell do we go 6 yard shotgun and then another 3 yards back for pistol? It puts us 10 yards behind the freaking line of scrimmage from the start. Same shotgun strategy is used when we have the ball on our own inch line. Just begging for a safety!
 
ISU is not running a hurry up offense. They are running a no huddle offense. (some would argue they are running no offense)
I absolutely hate this offense where the players all get to the line, get set, then all turn to the sideline so someone can signal in a play. I can't say how many times the play gets signaled in with less than 5 seconds on the play clock and then they barely get the snap off.
