Go watch the replay of Fromm's throws versus Notre Dame and Tennessee...back to back games. Only one throw over ten yards over the middle of the field. We do not attack the middle of the field in the passing game.

It is not that we aren't having a ton of success...it is that we don't try. Maybe that is by design because the sideline throws are safer. But it does make our offense easier to defend.


Ok, just watched the UT passes. Tell the truth here. How many passes did we throw to the middle of the field? How many back shoulder passes did we throw? Maybe there is a terminology issue here. I can teach you. Go.

Defenses know to guard against runs up the middle and passes to the outside. Great offenses attack every part of the field. Coley must go.

I don't know where the problems lies, but the O production is down. I did a quick analysis. Comparing this year to last at the same point in the schedule and taking out the cupcakes: The D has allowed 63 fewer points this year. That is awesome. But the O has scored 80 fewer points. Over 8 games, that's 10 per game average down by the O.

So we have lost a net of 17 points over 8 games; a little over 2 net points per game average.
