This one was over early, with the Bucks outscoring UD 37-0 in the first half then letting the subs get the time in the second half. Yardage at the half was 347 - 9. Biggest difference from last week was getting McFadden more involved with some jet sweeps, including a 61 yard run that looked right out of a video game. When he gets loose no one is catching him.
Clemens and Taylor again had some big runs, and the mistakes that plagued them against GV were almost totally gone. UD couldn’t move the ball at all, especially on the ground, until the subs came in. West mixed up their coverages and should have had at least a couple of picks when jumping routes.
Much like last year’s game, where I thought that the score of 35-7 didn’t reflect the true difference between the two teams, I think UD will be fine with most of their schedule. West just got rolling and there are games, especially if you’re a young team, that the avalanche is hard to stop when an experienced team gets rolling.
Looked like West’s starting right guard was out this week, so they plugged in another undersized lineman (170 pounds?) and kept grinding away. The o-line is playing with an attitude much bigger than their physical size. Credit to Coach Gehringer for the work he does with that group every year.
Next week is Q-Town on the road, at one of the great venues / atmospheres in Eastern PA. Should be a good one.
