I said at some point in some thread that kicking these field goals was going to bite us at some point....when you're in a shoot-out type situation you have to be able to score fast and we can't.
Michigan State @ Ohio State might top it the second to last weekend of the year might surpass it.
Not sure that's true after MSU drops one to Purdue.....
That’s the most Michigan State thing we can do
Yeah, @iowajerms lol at Iowa.
The red zone offense has been an issue all year. We get into the end zone and then revert to run up the middle, run some other way (maybe even up the middle) and then a long 3rd down play that has low probability of working. Michigan ranks 4th in the country in field goal attempts, that's a bad stat to be in.
I think they have way more offensive firepower than they did, and Cade actually played a really great game; making some really nice throws. The problem is still ultra conservative playcalls. MSU went to stop the run, they stopped the run and left the passing game wide open. But we kept wasting downs trying to get the run game going unnecessarily. So we were passing on 2nd and 9/3rd and 8 a lot of the time.
Michigan State has done a decent job all season of shutting down their opponents in the red zone, which is a good thing because opponents have been moving the ball at will between the 20s.
