Mercer 11/12

Not even close. Wish they could have called their OL for holding our #40 with a bear hug

Amazing how much better the picture quality is on espn+ vs. channel 62.

Wow! Wish I had known it was on TV. Was watching it on my desktop. Better late than never. Thanks apaladin. Guess I missed it someway.

i think we can go to macon and beat mercer.i do not think they can stop our offense now that our qb has been allowed to resume designed running plays after a couple weeks of trying to protect an injured elbow.

I don't envy Mercer's coaches popping in that UTC film.

The Bears are a strong team, but they aren't necessarily going to be as stout on the defensive interior as UTC was. I expect Mercer is going to have to commit more bodies to Furman's running game.

One thing we haven't really seen is all of the passing wrinkles off the QB run game. Just some examples:

This can put a ton of pressure on a defense.

1. Defend Roberto and Abrams inside run.

2. Defend Huff on designed QB keepers.

3. Defend the RPO where if your linebacker steps up against 1 or 2, Harris, Dean, and Miller are going to get the ball in space.

4. Defend the play action pass off the the QB run action, which Furman hasn't shown much yet but I'd be shocked if it isn't in the playbook.

5. Defend Miller, who is big enough to block your linebackers but fast enough that he'll run right by you when you stop to take him on.

Called it.

Big points there.

Mercer looks frustrated. They look tired.

Another huge missed opportunity. Coulda put it away right there. Left the door open for MU.

What missed opportunity?

All points here are big points.

Let’s hold or intercept and put up 7 more!!!

Inside of 10 minutes, Mercer's probably going to have to have a touchdown here.

Let's keep tackling.

[furmandad]

Not sure what secondary coverage we were in on 3rd and 7 that lets their best player get behind us?

All points here are big points.

Kinda obvious isn’t it. A td and game over, a fg and game not over.

[apaladin]

Captain Obvious here but that was a huge stop on the z2 pointer.

100 %

Now we need to not act like the game is over with nothing but runs up the middle!

[Sad Din]

Ballgame! Game Ball to the D!

Not sure how many times Cronic's offense has been abused like it was abused today.

Devron Harper had a big game, but man the Paladin front just dominated Mercer today.
