If you want to see what Mullen did to us with the option , go to 15 seconds left in the 1st qtr. This test play was repeated over and over the rest of the game and we never properly adjusted
There was no dive back
Due to a Mullen choice of formation vs our tendencies - #14/#2 had the QB and CB and Mike LB have the pitch. Will LB should have the clean-up if the pitch back comes back inside.
#31 was basically playing a 5-tech DE pushing inside the OT. OT bump and RG reach to take him out of the play. Too much power for #31 to over come in that phone booth. OT slipped past #31 to seal off the Mike LB (#10). #10 looped deep to get past the OT seal put #10 5 yards deeper than he should have been and 12 yards away from the pitch back he should be chasing.
CB playing bump and run on WR. That took him out of the play for run support. Will LB (#8) went the wrong way. Away from the flow of the play. LG now between him and the play. #8 can no longer have ANY impact on the play unless he catches up 15 to 20 yards down the field.
#14 (in some cases later #2 did the same mistakes) got caught in no-mans land between QB and pitch back. QB cut up field. First contact with the QB was 5 or 6 yards beyond the LoS when the FS (#3), Nose (#94), and SAM (#20) from opposite side of the formation converged on the QB.
Mike LB (#10) was 3 to 4 yards further down field still being pushed by the OT seal block. Will LB (#8) was still a good 4 yards trailing the SAM (#20) who had to run around him to get to the play.
Had the QB pitched the ball, the pitch back would likely have gotten 2 or 3 yards more than the QB did. The QB got about 8 yards gain on the play.
#71 & #70 got overpowered a lot. #70 and #55 got beat with quickness a lot. #79 got abused with speed and then with power when he started trying to jump out in anticipation of the speed. #73 looked to have had a pretty good game.
Someone else needs to step up at LG and RT when we face DL power and we want to run.

IMHO, all our offensive problems come back to the poor offensive line play.

On that play detailed above, two players made an error #8 & #14. fixing the error by either or both would not have made much difference in the outcome of the play...maybe 5 yard gain instead of 8.
The major issue was a defense design flaw that was never adjusted. Either move the D-line 1/2 gap toward the weak side or shift the Mike/Will 1/2 gap to the week side. Either adjustment would have shut down the play.
Mullen moved the RB to the weak side which flipped the Mike/Will positioning. Mullen had the WR on the weak side make what appeared to be an outside release move against the press-man CB which took him out of the play.
Having the D-line shift 1/2 gap weak would have put #31 in the QB's face and #14 on the pitch - dead play
Having the Mike/Will shift 1/2 gap week would have taken both seal blocks out of play and #10 in the QB's face with #14 on the pitch. #8 (if played correctly would have been beyond the seal block reach of the LG but the OT seal that missed #10 would have been in #8's path.
The UF success on the play was a schematic flaw that Mullen found and was prepared to exploit. The DC should have been working on a correction at halftime. The correction was simple but missed by the DC - The flaw belongs to the coaches and not the players.
