I know they have a 1st round qb running the show but man their offense gets guys open or in 1-1 matchups where they can win and get YAC. I just watched them concert a 3rd and 15 with a 8?yard pass. Yeah the Tulane guy blew the tackle and it should have been 4th down - but the play design isolated that wr to where IF he made the guy miss there wasn?t another defender with 15 yards.
Maybe better defenses bottle it up more but they do a good job of scheming to create mismatches.
I will give them this, Kiffen is a great offensive coach. They picked a good one when they hired him. Only problem is keeping him. We all know he aint staying there long...
They?ve scored damn near as much in the first half against Tulane as our offense has scored combined in the last two games.Quote:

It?s sickening to watch them run up and down the field at will and our pathetic system is about as entertaining as watching paint dry. And, yes, Kiffin is a very good coach that is adaptable to his personnel and who his opponent is.

I think Lane has found a good mix of Coeds he can work with in Oxford who don?t spread and tell. He may be there longer than you think. And like the previous poster said, there is a Hair Place in Oxford where the Cougars are willing and somewhat discrete.
The OM offense is light years ahead of ours. It's a perfect mix of air raid concepts, rpo, spread option, TE, no TE,etc, and it's all run with great tempo.
Ah, so a modern offense...which incorporates flexibility, adjustments, and considers the personnel? I can't believe that actually works, lol.Quote:

We refuse to move the pocket, call QB runs, encourage QB scampers, etc...
Losing this way is infuriating. It shouldn't be this bad, unless of course, you're insisting that a win comes your way or not at all.
Shame we lost out on Ealy. He's a really good RB. Thought he was going to sign with us at one time. Too bad he didn't sign the baseball contract like lots of people on this site thought.
So Ealy could catch lateral passes for no gain with us?Quote:

Completely agree. It?s not like they have a bunch of Tunsils on that OL.Quote:

The fact that they adjust their offense to take what the defense gives them is very frustrating to watch, while we consistently pass into the drop 8 is annoying.

OM is going to prison 17 us come November. Arnett better bring his A game
