The big plays were in the air and JT didn't have time to make an accurate pass. If we hit 2 or 3 over top receivers, then the game turns into a track meet.
THIS. If we would have hit some of those open passes earlier, like the one to Waller for the TD, it would have forced the Hokie defense to start respecting the pass more early, which would have opened up our running game more, which, in turn, would have drawn them back in for our passing attack...
The two things we talked about prior to the game many of us said needed to happen, or we wanted to see happen, to help our offense, DIDN'T as best I could tell. First, we didn't adjust our snap count so their defensive line could jump our snap count like before, and second, we didn't go into our no huddle, which would have forced Bud Foster to call plays more quickly and then give PJ a chance to adjust while he had time.
In spite of all of this, and the terrible calls/no calls, going against them, this young, inexperienced, team, found a way to win against their nemesis Division foe, at THEIR house, and they are 4-0 going into this first break. They made a statement to everyone in the Coastal Divison yesterday.
