Given that we've been behind in nearly all our games that's really run heavy.




This is actually a good point.

I went and took a look at it and here is how our run/pass ratio breaks down in the 1st quarter and 4th quarter of SEC games.

Texas A&M:

1st Q: 8 rush - 8 pass
4th Q: 4 rush - 10 pass

Florida:

1st Q: 11 rush - 5 pass
4th Q: 3 rush - 23 pass

South Carolina:

1st Q: 7 rush - 6 pass
4th Q: 6 rush - 2 pass

Alabama:

1st Q: 5 rush - 5 pass
4th Q: 10 rush - 6 pass

Auburn:

1st Q: 18 rush - 6 pass
4th Q: 8 rush - 5 pass

Ole Miss:

1st Q: 6 rush - 4 pass
2nd Q: 9 rush - 18 pass



Total:

1st Q: 55 rush - 34 pass - 62/38 ratio
4th Q: 40 rush - 64 pass - 38/62 ratio


Our ratio flips 180 degrees. That's probably not a good thing.

nice research.

looks like we try to start out running the ball and passing only when needed. but as our defense lets the other team score and we fall further and further behind in the score, we are forced to pass more and more as the game goes along. getting away from what we would ideally like to do. leading to some of the hatred for our play calling. it's a vicious cycle.

our defense doesn't have the talent needed right now to run the offense bielema prefers
