But thanks for showing such wonderful maturity by telling everyone else to shut up.

Great coaches get great execution from their players.

This is the problem currently. I agree the play calling is just fine. The problem is in coaching players to do the right

BYU was down 2 scores for about 1/3rd of the game, so there's your 45 passes
Indy Coug

Yeah, BYU was slinging it on every play to start the game.

It's a lot more nuanced than that.

Had we run more, Joe would not have been getting sacked

If you run the ball, you can't get sacked.
CougarLoyalist
11/20/17 9:40am
So your argument is that we should have only run the ball. Got it.
Phcole
11/20/17 9:43am
Not at all. Look at the actual stats.
CougarLoyalist
11/20/17 9:50am
Excluding the two minute drill we ran on 5 first downs and passed on 4.
Phcole
11/20/17 10:02am
Your point? The point still stands.
CougarLoyalist
11/20/17 10:05am
My point is that outside of one drive, the run wasn't working well.
Phcole
11/20/17 10:13am
The outcomes of run/pass suggest that running was still our best bet
CougarLoyalist
11/20/17 10:50am
A few completions opens the run game up. That's the strategy.

It is the OCs job to get them to execute. Calling plays is not #1 task for OC.
