Biggest variable that negatively the offense

The inability of the OL to get consistent push in the run game. The sacks are a problem, but there are so many ways to clean that up. Not being able to get a consistent push that allows our RB’s yardage before contact is a serious problem. We haven't been able to get consistent and reliable yardage on the ground which serious affects our down & distance. I am not talking about getting chunk yards on big runs. That is nice but without consistency, we get stifled when it counts. If we could rely on getting 4 to 5 yards on our running plays, it would open up the offense and the plays we can call. A team like Wisconsin will be tough to beat because their back gets 5 yards upfield before he even needs to make a move. That opens up so make that can be done. It makes their QB Coan look like a Heisman candidate. Williams is accurate as it is. Imagine if he could rely on our backs getting 4 to 5 yards on 1st and 2nd down consistently.
It also helps if you can throw more than 5 yards down field against 8/9 men in the box.
 
We are becoming predictable and that sucks as an offense. Last year during the Wisconsin game the middle LB knew exactly what we were running and would make adjustment pre-snap and that killed us. There was one interception where the dude went to a spot and just waited cause he knew exactly what we were running. But if a bunch of CIS posters can figure this **** you think a dude making millions of dollars to do would also. V Tech is a make or break game for this team. The **** they are putting out on film now people have figured out.
 
no They haven’t , rememeber we have had 2 60 yard runs or so called back in the first 2 games.

The long were more on the rbs, making one or two moves in the backfield , then bouncing it from the original hole. The ol rarely moves anyone. The rb constantly are making a guy or two miss in the backfield lol.

I don’t think there’s been more than a couple big holes the rb could just shoot through. Even Bethune was pretty pathetic for the most part, especially with the huge talent gap.
 
Eventually teams will stop respect our pass if we don’t do it. That’s what you saw vs CMU. We had ups and downs vs UF but getting occasional push vs them is no small feat. Stacked box plus 2 min long plays equal no run AND no pass. Enos gotta change
