No it didn't.
Arkansas started each possession in the first half with a run, outside of one. Chaney knew Auburn game planned to stop the run in the second half, so he wanted to hit them with some short passes to loosen them up.
You've established both the run and the pass in the first half. To open up the half with completed passes, relaxes the defense for the rest of the half. It also relaxes their defensive play calling.
It's sadly obvious, some of you can only see to the end of your nose when discussing football.

Yeah I didn't really see any problem with his play calling in the third quarter. They were starting to whip our line as we wore down so I don't think we were going to be able to run it straight at them with as much success as we had early in the game.
Personally, I would have liked to see him run the ball a little on that drive in the fourth but we were down 17 so I get it. Also there were guys open so it's not like they were necessarily bad calls. Just poorly executed.

I don't think so.
If we can run the ball, we gonna run. Why the o-line was so tired sounds like a problem with the o-line and their coaches, including Herbert.
And if we have to pass ...with this staff.......it's basically something any competent high school coach in this state can do.
