    After the game Lake mentioned that the offense can change its focus week to week, and they’re going to lean on whatever weakness the other team has.

    I remember hearing an OSU beat writer mentioning that they were thin at DT and that the heaviest guy they had was 285.

    My guess is that with the rain, with a RS Frosh QB, and with an inexperienced but large OL, Lake wanted to really focus on controlling the game and hammer OSU’s biggest weakness and build confidence in the OL.

    Not sure if that means he will air it out against teams with shit secondaries, but I’m interested in how game plans change from week to week.

    I read somewhere that two of JD's better players from back in the day complimented him by saying that JD's strength was the changeable nature of his offensive game plan to scheme to take advantage of the personnel he had to work with and to adapt the offense to attack the weakness of the defense they were playing that week ~ which when you think about it is how you would compliment an OC if you intended to, but the players were impressed with JD's adeptness to change up from week to week.

    This is going to be some totally subjective eye test crap but even Morris’ good throws were off in terms of touch or timing.

    Bynum dropped that third down pass because it got there too early and it was moving too fast Bynum was just turning and the ball was already on him and it had no air under it.

    Not really surprising for first game as a redshirt frosh I expect he will improve as he seems to work hard unlike our last freshman starter.

    Probably true but as a college football WR on scholarship at a P5 school....you've got to catch those.

    Per the twatters, Jermaine Kearse is now "on staff". Maybe he will be helping the receivers learn how to catch the damn ball

    It was a quote from a Vanderbilt lineman Caple wrote about earlier.

    Here is the direct quote for the pours that don’t subscribe:

    Wesley Johnson, who played for Donovan as an offensive lineman at Vanderbilt: “I always thought if I ever coached offense, my playbook would reflect his, because it allows the flexibility to kind of do whatever you want, based on your players. There were some games where we would spread it out and we would pass a lot. There were some games where we ran it 40 to 50 times.”
