Views from the Bottom of the Hill: Time to talk about the play calling

For most of the 2020 football season, the players have been the ones under the microscope and in the hot seat for the level of play on the field. It’s not unwarranted criticism, but now it’s time to question the coaching staff and the play calling.

There’s only been one time this season where I have seen the play calling get criticized, and that was in the Liberty game earlier this season.

WKU received the ball after the Flames scored on their previous drive to go up 30-17. WKU came out on its ensuing drive and ran the ball four straight plays.
