We are in the same boat as the old outdated "wishbone", which had long drives a lot of the time unless the team had better talent to make big plays.
Air Raid has shown it can work, but I think you have to mix things up with different formations at times. But I'm just wanting us to be successful and win!
I think we just need to not have a collective break down in one game. Stop muffin punts inside your own 10 that results in a fumble. Stop dropping passes that would have made a first down that killed drives. Stop missing blocks by the RBs that get the QB planted. Do that and we would have won that game. So let's see how we respond over the next month.
No doubt that we are building a program. It's evident in the growth and in the young players that are coming up. I hope the staff keeps up the portal and developing an OL.
I see more explosive plays this year too. WAY more. We had 2 rushing plays that were explosive at LSU. 37 yards TD by Marks, 35 yard rush by Johnson.
