Miami's running backs
21 carries
132 yards
6.3 YPC

Florida's running backs
19 carries
38 yards
2.0 YPC

Our running backs don't suck. We need the OL to gel.
Miami has a good front 7 and I knew it would be tough sledding against them and we had 2 DT's out and another one with a season ending injury.

We did not accept yardage losses and tried to make great plays against DL pressure when we needed to secure the football and take the 2 yard loss or no gain. Miami had pressure on our 2nd and 3rd possessions of the game and caused 2 fumbles because we didn't secure the ball. Once it was a RPO and Fransk and the RB fumbled the exchange, another was Malik Davis trying to pick the ball up and run with it after fumbling the pitch instead of covering it.

Half of Miami’s running yards came on that long wildcat TD.

They really didn’t do anything.

If UF could tackle properly, I don’t see anyway Miami should’ve scored more than 10 points.

You guys never want to hear this, but a lot of this is on the QB. Franks missed easy passes multiple times that would have 100% moved the sticks. He's also back with his timidity of running the ball, he still can't do the read option -- he severely limits what we can do on offense.

How do you call an offense for someone who struggles with checkdowns and doesn't have the instincts to run?

The OL did fine pass blocking, there was plenty of time for Franks to throw and often times he was just sitting there waiting for the play to open.

In the end, if we want to be successful, we have got to get a QB who can consistently throw the ball downfield and at least stretch the defense out. Running into loaded boxes is what killed Muschamp and McElwain.
