A game plan with QB Leonard as the featured rusher when you have Love & Price makes no sense.
Leonard may give you decent YPC but only Love and Price can break big plays.
Plus they are workhorses carrying the ball.

I stated before the game if RL had 12+ and Love was less than 15 we don't win
Seems they were pressed on making RL the "hero" instead of getting the ball to their best offensive player. 31 pass attempts and 17 carries....damn
He looked banged up after that 1st drive

Looked great the first drive…

Then, OSU adjusted

OSU adjusted somewhat, but ND only had 3 drives in 1st half. Defense failed Irish in 1H
That second drive was killed by a false start and a holding call where the flag usually stays in the pocket.
Don’t say the truth! You’ll be a troll for calling out goldens lack of focus this week

I wouldn’t say that. Pass happy and penalty’s. Self inflicted

QB Leonard averaged 2.4 yards per rush
Lornard also rushed 70% of the time.
I have been highly unimpressed with Denbrock 1 and Denbrock 2
Didn't think he was all that great the first time he was here. I would take a wild guess and say he's probably middle of the pack when it comes to coordinators. I've seen nothing to indicate he's elite, and last night was a perfect example. Dink and dunk with Leonard as your main rusher only worked one series until Knowles adjusted, and then Denbrock had no answers until he was forced to open it up. And what happened? ND finally looked like they belonged on the field.
I don't know if Freeman knows enough about offensive football to see Denbrock is only average. My feeling is we're stuck with this guy for years.
Freeman needs to tell him to shit can Tressel ball.

Agreed. Daniels at LSU woulda won the Heisman with or without Denbrock.

Agree I fixate on Love because he can generate Saquon Barkley output when he gets his motor going.
Given him enough shots at the edge and he's gonna break one.
Only that didn't happen.
Featuring a Riley Leonard running straight up and then falling forward running game made no sense.
