Why doesn't the coach rotate players more? Makes no sense, especially with running backs.

This whole thread is both sad and funny… Dude played TE at Wisky… no way he is soft… Unlike Craft and Chucky he has Ben a head coach and has won game and made bowl games with maybe the worst program in FBS… I was super sad they lost and very frustrated… but it is also clear that the scheme is starting to work on both sides of the ball… I am excited about our future. Career stat line 1 reception for 7 yards and?

If our kick didn’t crap the bed Twice it would have been right on. If your prediction couldn't even make it through the first week, why should people listen to you telling them to "relax"? We lost by one point. The prediction was not crazy.

Being a backup TE at a Wisconsin is irrelevant to his coaching style or overall disposition when the ish hits the fan. It's just as meaningless as a judgement of soft simply because they played under Chuck Long or Tom Craft as SDSU.

He was part of the Wisc. program. That program is built around toughness and fundamental football.

I agree you could rotate the RB (or any other position) at the start of the series. As to why Cooper plays so much. Maybe he is the best we have. Maybe he likes a lot of carries. Cooper is not the problem. He runs hard and is physical. The OL needs better push up front for the running game to work.

He's ditched the fundamentals already so why not the toughness too?

Other RBs need run too.

Make the defense stay in base defense regardless of the down and distance. You can use rotate backs by series, or you can do a quick substitution on first and 10. The key is not to allow substitutions situationally (ex third and 4), in a base defense/offense it doesn't matter as much. Also, don't substitute near the goal line. But substitute on first and ten every other time, and do it quickly.

Special teams & 2 missed 4th quarter field goals killed us again, deja vu'. Nick Lopez misses a 33 yard and a 28 yard field goal attempt in a matter of two minutes late in the 4th Quarter. This reminds me of the Aztec kicking woes of 2012/13/14. Seriously, these are short kicks. Its not like they had to travel 40-50 yards. Aztec Fast, needs to slow down and focus. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN39ZAI_wAg And they weren't even close! I know, horseshoes n hand grenades, but....... After many years of terrible kicking, we've had some really good recruits. What happened?

Good coaches make halftime adjustments and find a way to win. We didn't score one point in the second half, which doesn't reflect well on coach Lewis. We had 68 plays on Saturday and Cooper had 34 carries, very unproductive except one breakthrough run. If our O-line isn't the greatest, perhaps we shouldn't try to pound Cooper up the middle 50% of the time? Do you think Central Michigan was predicting the play calling a little?

Opponents same defensive philosophy for the last eight years. Stack the line and make them throw.

90% of the Teams at this level are turning over 50-75% of their rosters. If you're good, someone's willing to pay you more. If you have decent NIL you can get kids with less. Kids that were buried on the depth chart will transfer down for PT. If you have a complicated system that takes time for kids to learn, feel comfortable in and start being productive, your seasons over. Chances are they will move on when the seasons over. He's not a good Coach. Where do you get "90% of the Teams at this level are turning over 50-75% of their rosters".
Seems like you are just throwing this out there. Didn't you know that 67.986% of statistics are made up?
