The play calling today was fucking terrible

[uzi]

You misspelled five years

And it wasn't as good as back to back Rose Bowl wins in 71 and 72

They probably ran like beasts back then too.

Thanks for making my point.

Yeah that's how Plunkett won the Heisman

Let me know which one of our QBs can throw like that.

Until then, I'm keep yelling for us to run it.

I believe in freedom of yelling anything you fucking want but if your just going to move the goalposts when I deconstruct your arguments you won't last long

It isn't really about message boards (even if it is for you).

I'm totally fine being wrong, as long as we win.

Huh?

Where did I read recently that winners run the ball, but running teams don't necessarily win.

an article on Bret Bielema?

Paul Johnson maybe?

Smiff if running enough in a purely numbers sense, but there's so little creativity in getting your best athletes (running Cyler, Ross, Pettis, Shaq) in space/on the edge with the ball. I mean you look at what Auburn is doing--to use just one example--on offense and you just shake your head and start to wonder what the fuck Little Johnny is trying to do out there.

Peterman's always run really multiple schemes, but with this group of QBs he might have to do like Rick and put in a simplified running offense tailored to his athletes.

This. I don't give a fuck how we do it, but we need to be able to run the ball effectively. I don't fault Smith too much for not running every play because it wasn't working, but 38 for 81 yards was as big, if not bigger issue than Miles and the passing game. The plan all season has been to lean on the running game and the veteran OL and not turn the ball over.

Maybe we need to change some things schematically or make a couple changes to the personnel. I don't know what scheme can mask an OL getting dominated though unless you are SarkFS and think your genius play calling can always get it done. Maybe Stanford is really good and we will run it well in future weeks. I bet we run it well against Cal and Miles is the efficient (don't confuse this with good) passer he was against Eastern and Illinois. Asking Miles or any QB on our roster to win the game for us, like what happened today, is a recipe for disaster.
