We can run it fine, and people are missing the context here.
We're getting up 30-40 points and then shutting things down. When the defenses know we won't throw at that point, they're just clogging it up with run blitzes. We've done fine when the games were still close making a lot of big runs

Ben Livtin on Twitter doing another great film review specifically going over the struggles of the run game. Combination of plenty of things. Poor blocking sometimes, rbs being too inpatient, bad play calls against really loaded boxes.

We are struggling actually especially against the aggie. First half included. The first stringers are basically pass blockers because we take advantage of Tua and the receivers at our disposal. That has something to do with it. I think play calling has a lot to do with it too. I really don't seem to be too concerned when we win em by halftime though.

This is the most intelligent thing written on this board in weeks. Excellent job, droliver.
