I'd call it arrogant play calling in that we weren't attacking what the defense was giving us. Against cover 2 you'll want to attack the middle of the field and keep the safeties outside, against cover 3 you'll want to attack the boundaries. Normally you want to force a 1 on 1 in any match up. This year it seemed like our passing routes were pretty straight forward and we were just going to force them to beat us instead of us attacking them.

That's a big part of it too. We went into every game with a plan in offense and were too stubborn to waiver from that and adjust to what we were seeing from the defense if it wasn't working. This is Nuss' biggest flaw in my opinion. When we drew up a good plan during the week that worked on Saturdays the offense looked great.

When the plan didn't work Nuss either refused to adjust or just didn't have he ability.
