I've given my observations about the situation for half the season or thereabout, so all I'll say right now is that I surely do miss having a balanced offense to make the opponents defend the entire field, run and pass.

The SEC was bad this year so we won in spite of it, but the lack of an efficient passing game was nearly bound to catch up to us against better teams. No, the pass defense didn't play well, but the fact the offense couldn't sustain drives left the defense on the field way too long, which wore on them, and gave Clemson way too many opportunities.

I hope it's better next year. I think it will be but I realize it could be not.

We finished the second half of the season with a true freshman qb that played against top defense including Auburn, LSU, and then 3 championship games in Florida, Washington, and Clemson. How many qb's play that many top defense by the end of their JR year?

I'll use Dak as an example since they are similar build and size out of HS. Take a look at his Sophmore stats compared to Hurts FRESHMAN stats. I know he did not have the same tools around him but he also didn't play in an SEC champ game, semi, and NC game.

I think the doubting of Hurts is getting stale. He has had one of the better season for a TF QB.
