Not saying this is a good or bad thing, but halfway through the season I think it is safe to say this isn't a run-run-pass offense as the BlowBo gimps predicted.

Link to the cfbstats page, sorted.

Carson has more pass attempts than any other QB in the SEC.

Just go to cfbstats and use conference rankings.

Once stats get sorted, the hyperlinks don't work for some reason. That started last season.

Beck is 4th in the nation in passing yards.

JT Daniels is clocking in at 7th. Good to see him doing okay.

I see it as a net positive.
We are using the pass to open up the run which is smart with Beck's accuracy and our solid stable of receivers and our depleted running back room.

On a large % of our pass plays we run play action and motion to influence the defense and hold the LBs. As long as you can run successfully it really is considered running to set up the pass. Even if you only run 30% of the time.

I'm not sure you can call "motion" as a credit to the running game. You do know that a lot of teams pass to the jet motion man. A lot of teams arrow the motion man.

A lot of the motion meshes at the snap and we run some sweeps off it is what I meant by that. The backside contain needs to respect it, which works as a block almost

Agreed about the mesh.

But we don't seem to be doing that as much this season for some reason.

We seem to be motioning to bump zone coverages which is allowing our Y tight end or H Back to slip out unnoticed against the zone.

Film Don't Lie had a great play motioning Ra Ra in goalline (man coverage) where split zone action removed the defender from the playside. Ra Ra speed motioned playside and ended up bumping in to assist Delp with a seal block. Ra Ra's defender overran the play as we have been using a ton of speed in our motion.
Because of man coverage, it may have been the easiest play design to setup a touchdown.

We use it for both really. It definitely helps the QB get reads on the defense based on the reaction to the motion. Same with the shifts. Something Monken elevated in his scheme that Bobo has continued with.

Bowers TD was created by the motion to his side opening a window on the seam. Similar to the play we missed in Auburn, but the coverage was a tad different. #11 gets an assist on that on for running a good route and occupying the defender.

I will add that 11 took a hand off on the same motion earlier in the game, so when the defenders see it, they have to think possible run and then their coverage responsibilities all in the window of a few seconds.
