Not much changed from my halftime thoughts....
Positives:
Oline looks significantly better to me.
Dline appears to be doing well and rotating a lot of players
Gee Stanley - Couple more sacks

Negatives:
Penalties: I do not know why this happens year after year, but RMU has to to cut down the penalties. For years seems like they kill us game after game, year after year.

Pass defense surprising seems to be giving up some big plays.

Questions: QB missed a couple, any chance we see true freshman, is Barr back soon?

Without a more efficient offense, I am worried about Youngstown. Hope Barr is back to get his feet wet either this week or Malone week so we have a fighting chance in conference.
 
The goal is to redshirt Chase at QB this seasons.
Barr should back for YSU.
OL did better but still the QB was under pressure too much and our WRs are having issues getting open.
UD took advantage of the middle of the field starting late in the 1st quarter and RMU couldn't stop it.
 
"I am worried about Youngstown." No need to worry, just accept that it will be a lopsided loss.
:(
 
I think we all saw the same things:

The OL looked better I think there is still work to be done. Edge rushing still hurt and we need more consistent movement on run blocking from all. When it was good it looked real good when it was off a bit it looked bad.

The WRs I'm not so sure if it's them or the route combinations. But there is something there. Something isn't opening up.

RBs hit the holes hard and picked up some
blitzes. Need to play a bigger role in passing game.

It's the 3rd string QB it effects everything. We just can't finish...

The D is a great thing to watch. Gave up yardage a crossed the middle was it scheme or missed assignments? But if you give up 13 and 14 points a week you should win a lot of football. I'm not going to be over critical on a unit that spends that much time on the field.
 
I agree with everything being said. Main issue for me is why are we just running WRs up the field?!? Where's the slants... Where's the crossing routes... Where's the quick hitters to get the ball in their hands?! We motion these guys a ton, where's end around to one? Just my observations at that spot.. OLine improved leaps.. DLINE is awesome in my eyes, Hope #95 is seriously hurt.

Missed the game this week. I hope to see it posted soon to get a look at the guys. I heard the OL did improve a lot with some guys being shifted into what looked like familiar positions to them which is an awesome start on building. The key for us is to keep working and keep building. On to the next one...Youngstown is on the clock...
 
MoneyFrom, the game is up on youtube, cant post link right now but I am sure if you search you can find it. Might be listed on Dayton's webpage not sure.
