I think the shifting is just more effective and purposeful.
It was said earlier in the year, Deboer is running the offense Pete thought he was running.
Also Penix is a better presnap Jesus than browning.
The negative to this presnap diagnosis is we get a shit ton of delay of games/unnecessary timeouts.
I think it's an area Grubb can improve, but if the tradeoff is the best 3rd conversion percentage, I'm ok if it takes a little longer to get it in.
Well, shit @Doogles
I didn't realize we were leading the cuntry in 3rd Down Conversion. Damn!

I was an odd sensation this year with being able to assume we? would convert every 3rd down. Outside of PPG, I would assume that 3rd down conversion is the next most important metric for an offense. Maybe it's yards per play, I don't know. Paging @Logistics.
It's extra insane and impressive given they didn't really use Penix as a mobile QB at all. I feel like most college games I'm watching third and longs are mostly only converted with a QB affecting the play with their feet. Or maybe that's just every team playing the Huskies?
Pete's 3rd and long offense = Let's do a play action even though they know we're not running on 3rd and 10, and then let's give only two really crowded route options the defense can cover both with one guy, almost guaranteeing a sack or throw away. Oh, and let's not really throw to our NFL tight ends.
Current 3rd and long offense = Spread it out. Simple drop back with several simple spread out routes.
I'd kill to see what they could have done with a Dissly or Otton this year.
