No D in the Desert: New Mexico can't Stop Nwoke

Remember earlier when I said I took UNM cause I figured the D wouldn't lose any games? Whoops. Chris Nwoke would march the Rams the field on pretty much every drive and then Pete Thomas would just toss it in, mostly to Byron Steele.

On my side of the ball, things started really slow. Nothing seemed to work at all and it was painfully obvious BR Holbrook just doesn't have the speed to run the read or any kinda of option. If I can't run well soon I may have to start the quicker Tarean Austin (57 overall). Holbrook did make up for it late in the game when we started throwing more though.

I started to pick it up after halftime. I'm not sure what it was but I started to run a little better and was finding the holes in the secondary much better too. If only the D could have made on more stop.

PASSING:
This is where Holbrook saved us! He couldn't run effectively, save the 20 yard scamper on a broken play, so we took to the air. He only completed 48% of the passes, some just sailed or deflected by a super backer, but 20 we completed averaged about 17 yards. I'll take that.

RECEIVING:
My slots, No. 9 Michael Scarlett (62) No. 3 Martize Barr (53) and No. 81 Lamaar Thomas (59), really helped in the passing game combining for 13 of the 20 receptions. I need to find a way to work in IMPACT player Ty Kirk more, and get Quintell Solomon more touches. Maybe a move to slot for on of them?

RUSHING:
This was the most depressing part of the day, except the for the D. 22 carries for 74 yards. I would have to say almost 15 were in the first half alone! The poor 3.3 yard average made me give up slightly on the run early which may have led to us getting down so quick. Next game my goal is to pound the rock no matter what.
