My take on it is this. Watching the game I was able to call a good chunk of NW plays before they happened. If I can do that, you know like hell that FH coaches are going to be able to read that. NW was very predictable and played conservative. Way too many plays starting behind scrimmage when you are struggling up front. Hays had 7-9 in the box almost all game, there was no stretching of the field or even loading up a side to get less in the box if you are going to try some plays between the tackles.
Also thought this was weird, all year NW has been using trick plays here and there. Didn't see that yesterday.
NW got beat yesterday, the Sun almost came out the next day (It was cloudy and rainy here.), and the world moved on. Young staff, the question is will they get out of their comfort zone? I think they need to add some spice to the playbook, add some wrinkles. Also, I've seen it a couple times already.... On 4th and 1... run the ball with your running backs. If you can't get 1 yard with Caldwell or Strayhorn then there is some serious issues. If the battle is happening and going to be contact, I'd rather a bigger running back have the ball than a smaller wr.

Re: FHSU at NWMSU Game Thread
A couple of the student journalists posted some really nice photos in the Northwest Missourian article:

If you're concerned about them stacking the box and feel like the ball needs to go outside, then I think some kind of speed option with a good running quarterback and a back is a better option than running parallel to the line of scrimmage with a wideout. I suppose we're all Monday morning play callers, but I don't think anyone was happy with that call when it happened.
