2.64 points per quarter since second half of Georgia game, so what’s the problem?

1) obviously QB is a serious problem, decision making, slow releases to open receivers, and running an RPO offense that has no “R” option for the QB. If you are going to be a power run team play a FB or H-back.

2) opposing teams only have to watch one or two games of film to recognize our tendencies, and our lack of using one third of the field, middle, making it easy to flood the other two thirds.

3) offensive line is really not that bad, but when the splits are so tight on our line, this not only confines our backs to see open space, but allows DEs to split wide and aggressively attack the edge. And not having a QB that tucks and find middle open areas constricts is.

4) by not utilizing open middle third, and corners sitting on routes, plus safeties (usually single safety) playing 12 yards off the ball. We should be, at minimum taking 6-8 deep balls down field. (See Jones/Palmer/Hyatt)

My conclusion has been since second half of GA game, play your freshman QB, anticipate and accept growing pains, and Pruitt probably wouldn’t be facing the deserve scrutiny he is now.

Tim Irwin said it best this morning, you can’t expect to win in college football these days, without breaking 30 points, or in my stats, doubling our quarterly output, and that’s not asking for much!
