Clawson Post-Game Presser..."Not a very good football team right now"

Coach told it pretty much like it is....perhaps a little blunter than he would have liked because he is plainly frustrated.  Anyway, a few nuggets..

  • We are not a very good football team right now.  We don't stop people on defense and we are not balanced on offense.
  • When talking about the first two series, when BG was inside the 5 and got nothing, he said....

Its pretty sad when you have the ball on the 2-3 yard line and you put it on your O-lne and you can't get 2-3 yards.  You count on knocking guys a half yard off the ball and we didn't do it today, last week, and really all year except the 4Q against Marshall.

  • Not a new problem.  We are not very good on the offensive line.
  • Defense struggled to get off blocks.  Their skill made BG look "silly" at times.
  • Big props for Schilz coming off an injury.  BG dropped 7 passes in the 1st half.  Schilz played a good game.
  • There is nothing to change.  Guys gotta get better.  We are what we are.  Not very good.
  • Some guys are playing hard but the team has regressed since the Marshall game.  (Me:  this is the first hint that we have gotten that some guys are not playing hard). 
  • He named several players who are going hard, and said they are the kind of guys you can build a program around.
  • We did move the ball when Roussos and Flewellyn were on the O-line.
  • We need to be more resilient, and are still learning what it takes to win.
  • There is no quick fix.
