Quick notes without a RE-watch yet: If my notes are correct, Lashlee called 44.4% pass plays on 1st downs tonight. Right in line with last week’s number. More interestingly, he called just over 56% pass plays on 1st down in the first half. The number came down as the nature of the game (our...

Didn't make the point that we got chunks out of it - only that it was generally positive. Also made the point I'd like to see it continue, if not slightly tick up, in order to keep opponents honest and give King better looks on 1st down. We generally didn't pass well in Game 1, so I didn't...

What? I quite literally did "the math," which didn't take much. As noted. The point was to show Lashlee's numbers were relatively balanced, as noted throughout the thread. And, that I'd hope they tick up only slightly over 50%. Also noted throughout the thread. Ha. Good job.

We did run RPO in the first game, though. Not that you're saying otherwise. We actually threw successfully from an RPO call a couple times. Off the top of my head, I think one to Harley. I expect to see it used for the pass game more on Saturday.

Yeah. I'd go a step further and hope we run the ball just as much regardless of opponent. After all, it's Rhett Lashlee, the Malzahn disciple, as I said in my post-game thread. It's a good thing to run the ball a lot. It's also a good thing Lashlee is already throwing the ball a good amount on...

I've advocated for more establishing the run more on numerous posts. It doesn't contradict what I'm advocating for in the OP. You don't have to "establish" the run by running the ball on first down a disproportionate amount of the time. If Lashlee is already showing a relatively balanced...

Right. That's how RPOs work. Not sure where the disagreement is here.

Check my response above in post #26 for a part of the answer. In the first half, we started out with an incomplete pass on 1st down once. It ended up with a 9 play drive. We actually got stopped on that drive because we got into a 2nd and 12 out of a -2 yard run. That led to another 2 yard loss...

1st half We had 7 first half drives. We went 3 and out twice. We opened with a pass on 5 of those 7. We went 3 and out on only one drive of the 5 we opened up with a pass. 2nd half We had 6 second half drives. We went 3 and out once (started out with a run). We opened up with a pass on 3 of...

Yes, and what in the OP suggests otherwise?

Nothing in the OP suggests otherwise. We threw and ran the ball out of RPO calls against UAB. The original post's last line advocates for a slight uptick (we're already at 44%) on 1st down passing out of RPOs and short rolls and underneath (flats) throws.

No, this is LuCane. Enos would ask for a PA 7 step drop on 1st down instead of what I've suggested.

Hope to see more of it and in a varied way starting this Saturday. Against UAB, if my notes are correct, we ran: 34 1st down plays (of 78 total plays). Of those, 19 were runs (debatable on a couple QB runs). The remaining 15 were passes (one ended up in a King scramble/run TD). Of the 15...
