Just an awful gameplan from Miles today. Offense is extremely conservative, although some of that is because Stanley sucks. But only rushing 2 on fourth and 8? Then a key third and 8 and we only rush 4 again and give him all day to throw by rolling out. I'm not sure we have blitzed in the second half. Bob Sutton would be proud. [Reply]

Wasn't being too conservative with play calling at LSU his downfall? [Reply]
ISU is a solid team in their division. They did return all five OL that helped lead a rushing attack that averaged almost 250 a game last year. KU should have won, which they did, and by more, but I'm not so sure that it should've been by three or more TD's. A Miles coached team should never lose this game. Next year or the year after KU should make some noise on the field. This year they should be able to get back to some respectability
It's going to take a little time. This was their preseason game with the NCAA not having one. And don't forget just how conservative Miles can be. Maybe too conservative [Reply]

The conservative bit is my problem. The offense and defense went into prevent mode what felt like the entire second half. Had we continued to bring pressure and attack on both offense and defense, we get that 20+ win. [Reply]

That is true. He was coaching Martyball out there. A game that should've been closer to your outcome was almost a loss [Reply]
