- 0:16[SPEAKER_07]: It's only on the central Indiana Sports Report.
- 0:19[SPEAKER_07]: and stick around for the post game press conference with Barry Odom, and as a reminder, an earlier version of this podcast comes out on Apple Amazon, Spotify or SoundCloud, and then we have a later version on YouTube with highlights and graphics in the background, so you're going to want to be subscribed to two different places.
- 0:46[SPEAKER_07]: Welcome, Boilermaker fans of the Central Indiana Sports Report.
- 0:49[SPEAKER_07]: For our reaction to Purdue's loss to Washington on Friday night, Jake, it was too many opportunities they didn't take advantage of.
- 0:57[SPEAKER_04]: After back to back went to your original Illinois Minnesota Purdue, at a great chance to make it three straight against a Washington team that was coming in, basically what their back was against the wall.
- 1:10[SPEAKER_04]: going into the week, Purdue looked like at a great chance to move to four and three and you know, enter the bio week.
- 1:15[SPEAKER_04]: You'll feel really good about the correction of the program.
- 1:18[SPEAKER_04]: But instead, Washington came in a raw seed.
- 1:21[SPEAKER_04]: Again, on that three game losing streak and started it's back a quarter back turn turn the ball over five times and still be Purdue.
- 1:29[SPEAKER_04]: So the team.
- 1:30[SPEAKER_04]: Final score makes it look a little bit more competitive than it was, but the game felt very frustrating, Washington, or repeatedly gave Purdue opportunities to control the game, and Paris couldn't capitalize on that, and there'll be previous two weeks, and given Purdue fans a lot of optimism for not only for this game, but just for the rest of season, and for future.
- 1:54[SPEAKER_04]: of the program.
- 1:55[SPEAKER_04]: After this Washington game, I personally still have a lot of hope and optimism for the rest of season and for the future years in the Bayriotamera.
- 2:04[SPEAKER_04]: But you know, a lot of the strengths that we saw against Illinois and Minnesota really kind of disappeared.
- 2:10[SPEAKER_07]: So really disappeared.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_07]: Particularly the run defense.
- 2:15[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
- 2:15[SPEAKER_07]: It was just it looked like to me that Washington had no
- 2:23[SPEAKER_07]: But then they started running the ball with success and then it all changed.
- 2:27[SPEAKER_07]: And that was one of the worst running teams in the country, especially from its running backs.
- 2:33[SPEAKER_07]: It's a quarterbacks have been pretty successful in the ground, but it's running backs had not, and they just gashed them all night.
- 2:39[SPEAKER_07]: And Jake, all I get thinking was, this defense looks familiar.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_04]: I took seed during the game that the old Purdue defense was back.
- 2:46[SPEAKER_04]: And it's,
- 2:47[SPEAKER_04]: pretty disheartening to see.
- 2:49[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not sure exactly what went wrong.
- 2:51[SPEAKER_04]: Well, there was you know, schematically or anything that Washington was doing, but to your point, this Washington team was one of the worst of the country ranked the last and the big ten in terms of rushing offense.
- 3:02[SPEAKER_04]: They also had some injuries in the right back room as well.
- 3:05[SPEAKER_04]: So these were they're down with their sixth string.
- 3:07[SPEAKER_04]: Their sixth string is out here running all over this Purdue defense.
- 3:10[SPEAKER_04]: So that certainly doesn't
- 3:13[SPEAKER_04]: in your fan base and it's pretty, pretty disappointing to see, so we've got the question is are those Illinois and Minnesota games, science of genuine progress or, or did Washington just expose the same exact problems that have really kind of been narrow all season?
- 3:30[SPEAKER_07]: Well, as an old-jaded Purdue fan, my guess is B, but we'll see, there's still plenty of time.
- 3:37[SPEAKER_07]: Some good signs, a lot of good things that we saw, just too many stalled drives, man, the four downs, the third downs were so bad.
- 3:47[SPEAKER_07]: But the offense was way better than the defense, so it's hard to blame the offense.
- 3:52[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it coached them in the post game really kind of boil it down to being able to play complimentary football.
- 4:00[SPEAKER_04]: At times one side of ball is performing relatively well into the sides couldn't get anything going, then it flipped and you know, still the same until the same result.
- 4:09[SPEAKER_04]: So if you would have told me to go into the game, you know, Washington had five turnovers or
- 4:16[SPEAKER_04]: I would've thought, you know, they would've been a blowout, you know, peru would've won, or easily, but yeah, the offense is good game to go and peru only managed 13 points off of those five takeaways.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_04]: You just got to capitalize on those and it really stinks because from all accounts have seemed like there's a good crowd at Ross Aid.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_04]: Obviously the fans were anticipating when and excited to watch the bullets play on Friday night.
- 4:42[SPEAKER_04]: But yeah, we'll kind of get into it to it more here.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_04]: Is it pretty disappointing performance from the team?
- 4:48[SPEAKER_07]: Well, started with the first play from Scramage was an interception by Hadori Hines and
- 4:58[SPEAKER_07]: Second quarter you get a big Antonio Harris run and by the way we need to ball an Antonio Harris hands a lot more every time he touches the ball something good happens and then they did score 14 points in the second quarter and by half time I thought they were right in the game and then they just ran the ball down our throats in the third and fourth quarters and that was the end of it This pretty defense allowed 480 total yards Washington average eight yards per play which is
- 5:27[SPEAKER_04]: Obviously, not going to win you home a whole lot of games in 2010, Washington walked away with 302 passing yards, 186 rushing yards, which again going into the this game, Washington was averaging about 90 or 99 yards per game rushing into the whole set of 100 yards above their average for the season.
- 5:49[SPEAKER_04]: And then you can go back to the previous two weeks.
- 5:57[SPEAKER_04]: then Washington comes out and puts up 38 points on all the road.
- 6:00[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, like said, really like familiar.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_04]: My meal lot of September.
- 6:04[SPEAKER_04]: Seeing things like missed tackles, blown of coverage is you're just players being out of position.
- 6:09[SPEAKER_04]: And those are the same exact issues that we saw.
- 6:11[SPEAKER_04]: It's awake for us and you see a way in Notre Dame as well.
- 6:14[SPEAKER_04]: So I hope that for you again.
- 6:16[SPEAKER_04]: Find some ways to get the defense play and like has been so far in October besides this game It's still annoying Minnesota, but yeah, it's definitely some things to fix and Purdue had some injuries too That obviously didn't help.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_04]: It's already hinded.
- 6:29[SPEAKER_04]: I guess on that intersection play for first play the game He got her and wasn't allowed to come back into the game that kind of force through the whole game to go kind of deeper into their into their roster on In the secondary and that we saw Ryan Turner and D new some
- 6:47[SPEAKER_04]: I guess watching 10th receivers, Washington pretty repeatedly found open receivers and exploited the coverage and really took advantage of produce lack of lack of depth at corner back.
- 7:00[SPEAKER_04]: So in the game, Washington finished with 12 passing plays again, at least 15 yards, including a second of 20 plus yards.
- 7:08[SPEAKER_04]: So gave up some some explosive plays and all in the second half, I'm guessing.
- 7:14[SPEAKER_07]: It's what it felt like, but like that four or five in a row that were 15 yarders on a drive.
- 7:21[SPEAKER_07]: It was really frustrating in the fourth quarter when they still had a chance.
- 7:26[SPEAKER_07]: They still, they got within a score and just can't.
- 7:30[SPEAKER_07]: Just couldn't stop them and it was just really hard to watch.
- 7:33[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, absolutely.
- 7:34[SPEAKER_04]: And Elijah Brown came in, you know, looking nothing like a backup.
- 7:38[SPEAKER_04]: You looked like a, you know, Washington to starter for the time to where he wasn't throwing the interceptions.
- 7:44[SPEAKER_04]: Elijah Brown pretty well finished with for 21 of 27 passing for 302 yards and three touch rounds.
- 7:51[SPEAKER_04]: I think obviously those three intersections on the ground, you know, the running game trade coolie had a 53 yard.
- 8:00[SPEAKER_04]: I think it was a touchdown run that kind of flew the game open of felt like and this pretty secondary allowed Elijah Brown again to back a quarterback to complete almost 78% of those passes.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_04]: So it's pretty concerning from a secondary standpoint,
- 8:14[SPEAKER_04]: So it's kind of where the roster conversation becomes important.
- 8:18[SPEAKER_04]: It goes, you know, if you're having, having guys go down.
- 8:20[SPEAKER_04]: We also sell Charles Correa, go down.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_04]: It's probably their best player on defense.
- 8:25[SPEAKER_04]: So Charles Correa is out, defense is going to look pretty bleak.
- 8:32[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I thought Jojo Hayden played well and he had an interception that was really the only thing that stopped Washington in the second half.
- 8:39[SPEAKER_07]: They also had a fourth downstop I believe in the third quarter when Washington was scoreless, but they drove the ball up and down the field whenever they wanted to.
- 8:48[SPEAKER_07]: And we got to look at Purdue's running game because it was bad.
- 8:51[SPEAKER_07]: We talked about the Antonio Harris, 59 yard, run.
- 8:55[SPEAKER_07]: Other than that Jake 29 yards rushing, he's your boy, 19 yards.
- 9:00[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, 19 yards on 13 carries.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_04]: Coach Jones said in the post game that either boy has not been healthy for about the last five weeks.
- 9:10[SPEAKER_04]: And these kind of, you could second of days, obviously you're playing a day earlier than what you played last week, so it's already a short week anyway.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_04]: and said that those consecutive days, you kind of took a toll on him.
- 9:21[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not sure that if he was fully healthy, I'm sure one helped a little bit, but I still think period is still pretty dominated at the line of springage.
- 9:29[SPEAKER_04]: And I hate to say it, but I got to give a lot of credit to Ryan Walters.
- 9:34[SPEAKER_04]: So I thought he called a really good game.
- 9:36[SPEAKER_07]: It's one of you.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_07]: You don't have to do that.
- 9:39[SPEAKER_07]: You don't have to.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_04]: This last week, Washington allowed a 41 points to Iowa produce really couldn't consistently move the ball against this Husky's defense, running game was bottled up, receivers were struggled to create really in a separation and Ryan Brown probably had his worst game in the season.
- 9:59[SPEAKER_04]: I just felt like he didn't really have much time to work or space to work, Washington had any tackles for loss, three sacks, and Ryan Brown through two intersections when he was
- 10:11[SPEAKER_04]: it could have had more to I think I could might have dropped one or two.
- 10:16[SPEAKER_04]: So you got to get him credit.
- 10:18[SPEAKER_04]: The Washington defense is really stealth and co-joined him also said the post game that
- 10:23[SPEAKER_04]: that they were free without coached.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_04]: So, yeah, I'll play, obviously, I hope, yeah, I wish a pretty good one this game, but I hope that they can use this loss to really kind of reset expectations.
- 10:38[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not saying that, you know, they were coming in this game over looking at anybody, but I think,
- 10:43[SPEAKER_04]: and kind of reset expectations going in the bioweek, you know, get healthy, biways coming out of great time, get a week off, get everybody healthy and rested and then go to happy Valley and play a Penn State team is kind of in a summer spot, you know, has an out of great season.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_04]: So far the summer spot at Splashing 10 hasn't gone to expectations and the Purdue can get a win there.
- 11:05[SPEAKER_04]: I think they're right back on track to where they want to be.
- 11:08[SPEAKER_04]: So obviously wish wish you could have won this one, but they're still still definitely some wonderful games here on the schedule and it starts here on all reading against Penn State.
- 11:18[SPEAKER_07]: Speaking of breaks, let's take a quick break.
- 11:20[SPEAKER_07]: We'll come right back.
- 11:25[SPEAKER_07]: Jake and I will be back early this week with our reaction to produce exhibition basketball game against Ball State on Sunday.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_07]: Not exactly sure would not be out so please make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss it.
- 11:39[SPEAKER_07]: Number one is something we've been saying all year and this team has some really good receivers and they just keep proven it.
- 11:45[SPEAKER_07]: I thought they were very good last night as by a poor game from Ryan for him.
- 11:50[SPEAKER_07]: Particularly Assad was seen 9 catches 116 yards and he is really good.
- 11:57[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, definitely kind of seemed like he has become the go-to guy for Ryan Brown.
- 12:01[SPEAKER_07]: They all make plays when he throws them to him every one of those guys.
- 12:05[SPEAKER_04]: Xavier Townsend had a long game.
- 12:07[SPEAKER_04]: John Tigmacwood made some plays as well.
- 12:15[SPEAKER_04]: just kind of an off-knight all around for Ryan Browl.
- 12:18[SPEAKER_07]: I thought so.
- 12:19[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I'm confident he'll bounce back.
- 12:21[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know how to make worries about.
- 12:22[SPEAKER_04]: I know him, especially this, this, this receiver room, but the offense just kind of really need the offensive I did in the, I guess, needs a plan to be this, uh, bruise offense, you know, against Minnesota, even a little bit against Illinois.
- 12:35[SPEAKER_04]: What's, what's really balanced?
- 12:37[SPEAKER_04]: He's your boy.
- 12:37[SPEAKER_04]: Obviously, he's running ability really shining.
- 12:39[SPEAKER_04]: It's been a soda and Ryan Brown also.
- 12:43[SPEAKER_04]: able to use his legs and get to Illinois in Minnesota.
- 12:47[SPEAKER_04]: The Washington took a lot of that away and really forced Purdue into more obvious past situations, obviously that was less effective for Purdue, but on some of the the fourth down calls, I think the very first one, you know, after that first.
- 13:03[SPEAKER_04]: Interception, I think it was a force and like a long two.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know about anybody else but in already knew what what what the play Call was going to be I Josh and and at time it has struggled this year.
- 13:15[SPEAKER_04]: It seems with with play calling.
- 13:16[SPEAKER_04]: I think it is obvious what proves calling sometimes But it kind of same thing in the in the red zone.
- 13:21[SPEAKER_04]: You produce a noise trouble calling plays in the red zone and obviously that's kind of put your situations like this where you know you get get turnovers and and die camp
- 13:31[SPEAKER_04]: go and really making count.
- 13:33[SPEAKER_04]: So, fuel goals are nice.
- 13:34[SPEAKER_04]: A couple of extra variables on it is great, yet a 48-yarder and a 35-yarder.
- 13:39[SPEAKER_04]: And I think, he's improved.
- 13:41[SPEAKER_04]: He's improved the 15 of 16 on the season.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_04]: And he's been produced one of those survival players.
- 13:46[SPEAKER_04]: He needs one more, two tie, the freshman record for a kicker for this year.
- 13:52[SPEAKER_04]: So,
- 13:52[SPEAKER_04]: He's on pace to shatter that and on pace to shatter, I think, proves record for just made field goals in a season.
- 13:59[SPEAKER_04]: So he's been great.
- 14:01[SPEAKER_04]: A special team's just in general has been great.
- 14:04[SPEAKER_04]: All season really.
- 14:05[SPEAKER_04]: Don Saunders had that trouble recovery.
- 14:07[SPEAKER_04]: The muff to point if you call it, bouncing off the Washington Defenders.
- 14:11[SPEAKER_04]: So that was a nice play that provides some spark that got easier boy attached down.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_04]: I was going to open that I kind of get them going a little bit, but Washington Roy is kind of loaded the box and just shut down the running game and threw it in real have a counter punch to come back at him with.
- 14:26[SPEAKER_04]: So I hope to see more firepower from this offense for rest of season.
- 14:33[SPEAKER_07]: I think part of that has to be Antonio Harris has to be more involved.
- 14:36[SPEAKER_07]: Every time he touches the ball, good things happen, we've been saying it all year.
- 14:39[SPEAKER_07]: It's becoming obvious that he makes big plays.
- 14:42[SPEAKER_07]: And I think this offense can really use his strengths of his ability to make people miss.
- 14:47[SPEAKER_07]: His ability and open space.
- 14:49[SPEAKER_07]: And I hope that the coaching staff is taking away like I am and saying, hey, this guy makes plays.
- 14:55[SPEAKER_07]: We can get to see him more.
- 14:56[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I think you're right, Greg, we started the season, Travis Terrell was kind of the RB2 for this team, and it seems like through constantly kept running about the middle and not really having much success.
- 15:09[SPEAKER_04]: Then we've seen Antonio Harrison, we've seen a tiny bit of jerk Gibson, but mainly here for the past couple of weeks, it's been mainly just fond of you, you boy, and Antonio Harrison, that they've been going to become the two main running backs
- 15:24[SPEAKER_04]: I certainly would like to see him more.
- 15:26[SPEAKER_04]: We'd like to see George Burden involved.
- 15:28[SPEAKER_04]: I think he was only targeting a twice in this whole game, which is pretty crazy.
- 15:32[SPEAKER_07]: It seems like it's about twice a game.
- 15:33[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not intelligent enough with the X's and those of football that to know if it's coverage that they're taking away, they'll pay attention to that.
- 15:41[SPEAKER_04]: If I don't know if it's just scheme, it's taking them away, or if I browse it and I target them, but I would like to see him involved a little bit more somehow.
- 15:51[SPEAKER_04]: He's a phenomenal player, so he's got to find a ways to get him a ball, I guess.
- 15:55[SPEAKER_07]: Both of the good news is they have a couple of weeks here, 15 days off before their next game.
- 16:03[SPEAKER_07]: Still no kickoff time or television on that Penn State game, but again, some positives from Friday night, but mostly it was
- 16:17[SPEAKER_07]: do we need to start from scratch what what's going on here this will it's like but team from three or four weeks ago.
- 16:23[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, so I produced able to retain a lot of these guys.
- 16:27[SPEAKER_04]: Now, we're going to have to wait, I just were passing halfway point in the season, but kind of we're going to head to next season.
- 16:32[SPEAKER_04]: I hope for you can retain a lot of these guys.
- 16:35[SPEAKER_04]: That have been key for him, like he's a boy.
- 16:37[SPEAKER_04]: I mean, heck, even to the real Zano, the kicker, I mean, he's been phenomenal.
- 16:41[SPEAKER_04]: So I hope that through you's able to retain some of these guys who have been great for him, and kind of really deep in the roster, too.
- 16:49[SPEAKER_04]: So I mean, don't mind back a room, and we're seeing
- 16:52[SPEAKER_04]: with hindsight, this defense needs some more depth.
- 16:56[SPEAKER_04]: And when Charles Correa's out, I mean, even George O'Haden, he's a great player, but sometimes he batched up against the running back or a wide receiver, and he's just not fast enough to keep up with them, but obviously put them in a disadvantage, as well as a defense as a whole.
- 17:11[SPEAKER_04]: So I would love to see some more speed.
- 17:12[SPEAKER_04]: Obviously they're very physical Correa in George O'Haden.
- 17:16[SPEAKER_04]: It's about like, we need to see some more talents, more depth on this roster.
- 17:22[SPEAKER_04]: I could step up and get the money to do that, to make this roster better.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_04]: And Cladank Coach Jonas has proved that he's about all the right things and has shown progress here in his two years.
- 17:33[SPEAKER_04]: So far these have been here.
- 17:34[SPEAKER_04]: So I hope that fans, I hope they can finish out the season strong, sell a donors and boosters that continue to give and make this team better.
- 17:44[SPEAKER_07]: And Jake, I think the best news of all is basketball season is underway, took on Ball State earlier this afternoon and I am looking forward to watching that then you and I will talk about it on the Purdue report.
- 17:57[SPEAKER_07]: I have not had a chance to watch it.
- 17:58[SPEAKER_07]: You have Jake what did you learn?
- 18:01[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, we'll talk more about it from my quick takeaway.
- 18:04[SPEAKER_04]: So your teams can be found to watch.
- 18:05[SPEAKER_04]: They're going to be exciting to watch from the offensive standpoint.
- 18:09[SPEAKER_04]: In a shoot of a lot of threes.
- 18:10[SPEAKER_04]: It also seems like defense is much more of a priority.
- 18:13[SPEAKER_04]: So all of it's all stayed in exhibition games are kind of hard to take a lot of stuff away from.
- 18:18[SPEAKER_04]: But defense and three point shooting I was very impressed with.
- 18:21[SPEAKER_04]: So going to be fun to watch with a new identity for this Purdue program.
- 18:26[SPEAKER_07]: Can't wait to watch it, can't wait to talk about it.
- 18:28[SPEAKER_07]: We'll do that early this week, Jake.
- 18:29[SPEAKER_07]: Thanks so much for your time.
- 18:31[SPEAKER_07]: As always, final thoughts on the Washington game.
- 18:35[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
- 18:36[SPEAKER_04]: I'm still hopeful, so optimistic for us, season.
- 18:39[SPEAKER_04]: You got some, one of our games coming up here and it's a Penn State.
- 18:42[SPEAKER_04]: I would say it'll be tough in a tough environment, but you got Maryland coming to town for homecoming.
- 18:47[SPEAKER_04]: That should hopefully be a win.
- 18:48[SPEAKER_04]: Believe they actually just fired their defensive coordinator.
- 18:51[SPEAKER_04]: So maybe have some different looks and maybe be a little bit of a different team when they come to town, but still have someone who will game on the schedule and you're hoping they can finish the season strong and keep that momentum rolling here at the next season.
- 19:07[SPEAKER_07]: Please stay tuned for Purdue Head Coach Barry Odom's post game press conference.
- 19:13[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, thanks for everybody sticking around.
- 19:16[SPEAKER_05]: I thought, man, tonight, the Ross A.
- 19:18[SPEAKER_05]: Brigade student section was unbelievable.
- 19:22[SPEAKER_05]: I sure hate that we couldn't get a win for how the stadium was.
- 19:27[SPEAKER_05]: We didn't, you know, we were, we didn't play complimentary football tonight.
- 19:32[SPEAKER_05]: In a lot of the time, we, one side of the ball was playing well at times and the other side wasn't.
- 19:38[SPEAKER_05]: And then the, then it flipped and we were playing a little
- 19:44[SPEAKER_05]: And in the result, you know, you're plus 3 in the turnover margin, usually when those games, no matter, you know, if you end up in that area in the turnover margin, you've got to, you've got a chance when the game and had we converted a couple more there in the fourth quarter, early, then it would have been a one possession game and had a chance to,
- 20:05[SPEAKER_05]: Make it really interesting at the end credit to Washington did a great job.
- 20:09[SPEAKER_05]: I had a really good game plan I felt like we were we were a step behind For most of the night and I always had an answer for that, but Staff wise starting with me Didn't do a good enough job getting us prepared to play winning football and then there were times that we came up short in an execution and The challenge
- 20:31[SPEAKER_05]: to use this by week now on how important it is to get some guys healthy that got banged up tonight.
- 20:37[SPEAKER_05]: We've got four practices this week for Penn State and then we got the one game in October left at Penn State on the 31st and then our goal is to be playing really meaningful games in the month of November and I don't want to lose sight and for our team we're a good football team.
- 20:56[SPEAKER_05]: We have to continue to work and understand the process on what it takes
- 21:00[SPEAKER_05]: and then go execute to make ourselves a good team.
- 21:02[SPEAKER_05]: And from coaching on down we didn't do that tonight.
- 21:06[SPEAKER_05]: And it's very frustrating for sure.
- 21:16[SPEAKER_06]: So three intersections, but also 12 explosive plays allowed in the passing.
- 21:20[SPEAKER_06]: I guess, how do you reconcile that?
- 21:21[SPEAKER_06]: And did you see tonight a regression to some of the problems that were there earlier this season?
- 21:26[SPEAKER_05]: No, I think, you know, when Hadori went out, that changed a little bit how we were playing on the back end.
- 21:31[SPEAKER_05]: And, you know, we've got to continue to find ways if that does happen to put us of ourselves in position to play better.
- 21:39[SPEAKER_05]: I thought that we were active, you know, in some cases, I didn't think that we matched up very well after Dory went down in a couple situations.
- 21:51[SPEAKER_05]: There were three or four, I don't remember Nathan on a slant that turned into an explosive switch.
- 21:54[SPEAKER_05]: That's going to happen at times on a slant now you've got a tackle and we didn't, we were not in position to go do that, so I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to, to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that we've, I'm not ready to say that
- 22:10[SPEAKER_05]: you know took a step back and in that area because I know we've seen what we can do and now we've got to go do it because you're you're always judged on your last performance so we have to fix that I don't think it would be gone long if anytime and I think he's that good of a player that we that we changed a little bit on how we were calling it.
- 22:32[SPEAKER_02]: They may have such a huge game last week, 195 yards and today just couldn't get going.
- 22:37[SPEAKER_02]: What did they do to keep him in check or was there something that wasn't there?
- 22:41[SPEAKER_05]: But they won, they're defensive line one on the line of skirmish and Antonio got out on the one, bounce it outside and they gave us some different pitchers, and they're
- 22:54[SPEAKER_05]: Overall, made it really, really difficult in the run game.
- 22:56[SPEAKER_05]: They had everybody in the box and we were not able to counter that unfortunately.
- 23:01[SPEAKER_05]: So I think our offense will probably go as we're able to run the ball.
- 23:09[SPEAKER_05]: And we couldn't find enough room tonight to get that really going to help our past game enough.
- 23:18[SPEAKER_05]: I thought Ryan made some big time throws.
- 23:22[SPEAKER_05]: They gave a lot of different pitchers on the back end, and I thought he went through some progression on that, but we didn't win at the point of attack tonight, on the line of scrimmage on either side, and last week we did.
- 23:36[SPEAKER_05]: So let's, let's, let's a concern.
- 23:41[SPEAKER_01]: What, what did
- 23:44[SPEAKER_05]: On a play intercepted, it was an injury to his leg, I think, a sprain, and was an imposition to be able to play the way that he needed to at the position from a starting stop, change a direction, play and then play out.
- 24:02[SPEAKER_01]: And then with Charles, do you have an update on WAP in there?
- 24:04[SPEAKER_01]: I don't.
- 24:06[SPEAKER_01]: I guess just when Henry was out, he knew someone was out there, where I interned it was out there a little bit.
- 24:11[SPEAKER_01]: Do you feel that you have adequate depth at corner that, if something like that happens, you can still succeed with the guys that are out there?
- 24:19[SPEAKER_05]: We've got to get better.
- 24:22[SPEAKER_05]: at that spot, and it's, again, it's me, it's coaching, it's, uh, development, and, and then, you know, when you get a guy ready to go and the execution piece, that's so important too.
- 24:35[SPEAKER_05]: So, um, there's a reason, a Dorian, Don, or starters, they're, they're the best we've got.
- 24:41[SPEAKER_05]: And, uh, but, but really nobody cares in the day, you know, you got to let him guys out there and you got to find a way to go get them.
- 24:46[SPEAKER_05]: We didn't.
- 24:48[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because you talked a little bit about Ryan Browns and I just talked a little about a little bit more about his performance in your Washington doing the surprise.
- 24:56[SPEAKER_03]: Do you know that maybe he was prepared for said, say again, I didn't hear that last part.
- 25:00[SPEAKER_03]: Just did the the Washington defense doing that surprise.
- 25:03[SPEAKER_03]: You maybe contributed to Ryan really kind of struggling tonight.
- 25:07[SPEAKER_05]: Well, I think there are a couple of throws down the sideline that 50-50 balls, that on how they lined up, that's what we wanted to take.
- 25:18[SPEAKER_05]: So sometimes those are hard to complete, understand that, the one that Chancy had over in the sideline that you had overruled with an incomplete, you had that one to it, things look a little bit different there, especially on that drive.
- 25:34[SPEAKER_05]: I think they did a little more.
- 25:38[SPEAKER_05]: drop eight, then they had to show it up until tonight, but then also, you know, it's hard on the quarterback when there's not really a run game, and so we got to be able to have answers because I'm sure that, you know, we'll be the last time we see it.
- 25:54[SPEAKER_03]: Did you have any sense this was common in all coach showed on my mean and the two wins in a row?
- 25:59[SPEAKER_03]: Did you have a good week of practice?
- 26:01[SPEAKER_03]: And thank you, I was coming out and continue to have success like the other previous two weeks.
- 26:06[SPEAKER_05]: Well, they were going to win every week, going into the game and you prepare that way and you know, wash them, they play better than us tonight.
- 26:15[SPEAKER_05]: So, um...
- 26:18[SPEAKER_05]: you know, really in every spot to beat us.
- 26:19[SPEAKER_05]: So that's something that we've got to continue to go back and find a way to capture the momentum.
- 26:28[SPEAKER_05]: I'm not saying it's completely lost.
- 26:29[SPEAKER_05]: We're two and two in the conference.
- 26:31[SPEAKER_05]: And again, we've got a big time game coming up on the 31st and then so if we take care of business and really big ones in November.
- 26:39[SPEAKER_05]: So we'll get we'll get back where we need to be.
- 26:43[SPEAKER_02]: earlier this week, you were so adamant about the dangers of overlooking anybody and and how do you think your team handled the challenge of that?
- 26:51[SPEAKER_02]: I know not anyone particular, but just to an a row national televised game, hard not to get stars in your eyes.
- 26:57[SPEAKER_05]: No, they're all national televised games.
- 26:59[SPEAKER_05]: So that's no different, our guys didn't know if it was on Fox or ESPN.
- 27:02[SPEAKER_05]: They didn't, they don't have any clue on that.
- 27:04[SPEAKER_05]: Because they ever wanted our games around that on TV.
- 27:07[SPEAKER_05]: So us, the thought that we would overlook anyone, I mean, that, think about where this program started.
- 27:14[SPEAKER_05]: I mean, we're not even, we're not the business of overlooking anybody.
- 27:18[SPEAKER_05]: And that's, that's not the case at all, Washington be this.
- 27:22[SPEAKER_05]: They hit up, they, they alcocious and they beat us.
- 27:25[SPEAKER_05]: So, uh,
- 27:28[SPEAKER_05]: We prepared really, really well on a short week.
- 27:31[SPEAKER_05]: I thought that our practices were good.
- 27:34[SPEAKER_05]: They were crisp.
- 27:35[SPEAKER_05]: I thought the game plan was good going into it.
- 27:38[SPEAKER_05]: We got beat.
- 27:41[SPEAKER_00]: Good luck, Nathan.
- 27:41[SPEAKER_00]: Take me to the center.
- 27:50[SPEAKER_06]: The officials tell you what, JoJo was supposed to have done on the roughing the passer.
- 28:00[SPEAKER_05]: Um, he didn't.
- 28:02[SPEAKER_05]: He said we landed on him too hard.
- 28:05[SPEAKER_05]: So, we'll have to work on our positioning.
- 28:10[SPEAKER_05]: Once you leave your feed and tackle someone, how to land.
- 28:14[SPEAKER_05]: Then I, I was my fault.
- 28:15[SPEAKER_05]: I haven't, I haven't trained our players to land correctly on a tackle.
- 28:24[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I guess just what changed you feel like that made in the,
- 28:28[SPEAKER_06]: eventual outcome of this game you know either from the points or also just you were finally starting to get some pressure at that point.
- 28:36[SPEAKER_05]: I mean it's a big time play but you look at the course of the game and and there's going to be a lot of big plays and deciding points and factors that was a momentum swing for sure but also you get overcoming you got to find a way we got to put our guys in position to overcome those things and and we didn't tonight.
- 28:58[SPEAKER_01]: For that, you get the ball after they're touched down with, I think, 28, 30 seconds left in the first half, and you don't need it on it, you hand it off.
- 29:05[SPEAKER_01]: Is the mindset there, if you spring a big run, maybe then you try to go down and get three points or... That was the thought.
- 29:11[SPEAKER_05]: And then knowing that we had the ball starting the second half, we wanted to see what we got there on the first run, and then go from there, and didn't get much.
- 29:19[SPEAKER_05]: So, let's just regroup and go attack it here with kickoff return in the second half.
- 29:24[SPEAKER_05]: Did there was seam get her coach?
- 29:26[SPEAKER_05]: Who's that?
- 29:27[SPEAKER_05]: A side was seam.
- 29:28[SPEAKER_05]: He came out of the game.
- 29:29[SPEAKER_05]: They're late.
- 29:31[SPEAKER_05]: And it's talked to him in the locker room.
- 29:32[SPEAKER_05]: I think he's going to be okay.
- 29:34[SPEAKER_03]: Was FOMA healthy tonight?
- 29:37[SPEAKER_05]: Um, he had been health in the last probably five weeks.
- 29:40[SPEAKER_05]: And I think kind of took a toll this week on the consecutive days.
- 29:45[SPEAKER_05]: And we've tried to arrest him some.
- 29:47[SPEAKER_05]: Uh, by week comes at a really good time for him.
- 29:49[SPEAKER_05]: Any other coach?
- 29:50[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
- 29:52[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, coach.
- 29:53[SPEAKER_07]: Thanks.
