In the Colorado game Calzada threw it 38 times. In the Pig game he threw it 36 times. That's 74 passes in two games that were essentially one score games throughout. This does not include the times Calzada dropped back and was either sacked or scrambled for yards.

Vs CU and Pig Our RBs ran the ball in both games a COMBINED 34 times. 8 and 12 for Spiller with Achane going for 9 and 5.

Jimbo is basically having Calzada pass 40 times per game and is giving our two world beater RBs a piddling 17 carries combined per game.

Someone had a stat earlier this year that, when Smith, Spiller and Achane have at least a certain number of touches we have only lost once and we are below .300 otherwise.

He should just take the USC job so we can promote Elko.

It truly is mind boggling why we don’t run the ball more. I realize our O line sucks but they suck at pass blocking too, might as well run it some, especially when Arkansas is rushing only 3 guys!

I’m not going to lie, there’s some stretches during these games with calzada when Fisher is calling pass after pass after pass that isn’t working that reminds me of Kyle Allen hurt in that game vs ole miss where he had like 15 straight incompletions and Sumlin refused to try anything different. And that scares me. Jimbo is supposed to be better than that.

very surprised yall didn't run it more.

Figured Wydermyer would have gotten targeted more too.

Doesn't help that all those pass plays are to the fricking flat for an average of 4.2 yards per pass. If ran options we'd be back in 2008. Frachione is running the offense.

With the current state of the OL, the run game is pretty bad.

When a team rushes 3 and drops 8 back, you must make them pay for that. They cannot do that against a mobile QB. They will get torched.

Fisher is convinced that Calzada can win games - but from what I've seen he simply isn't capable of processing things fast enough to do so. Should be running the ball as much as possible
