Our RBs averaged 4.75 yards per carry. We only let them run the ball 8 times, combined.

There are way too many similarities to Gus. I’m ready to move on.

We rushed 24 times for 52 yards …. WGAF about the average?

Dude, take the sacks out. Our running backs averaged almost 5 yards a carry but only got the ball 8 times. Our QB had 15 "carries" for an average of 0.7 yards. If you can't see the problem, I can't help you..

You don’t believe the OL is the problem?

Sure, but half those carries were on 3rd and long where A&M was quite happy to let them run for 5 yards, so the overall YPC doesn't mean much.

They aren’t getting enough fricking carries to even keep the defense honest. I’m not sure why anyone thinks this passing offense is going to beat anyone with no attempt to even establish a run. They are not giving it a chance.
And the fact that half those carries are on third and long situations is an even bigger damnation of the piss poor play calling.

My point was when there is zero threat of passing, the D will overload the line. There isnt a OL in CFB you could have put in there today that would have changed the game.

I'm not arguing that they shouldn't be running the ball more. I'm arguing against the logic of referring to YPC on such a small sample size, when literally half the carries were on downs where running was easy. Who gives a shite if your RB runs for 10 yards on 3rd and 15 inside your own 15 yard line?

If true, that means we only rushed with a running back 4 other times, all fricking game.
