Was it me or was this not the most effective drive we had last night? I for one would really like to see more of this moving forward. Especially next season, with Dallas and a stable of running backs I don't see why it shouldn't at least be looked at.

I have no idea why Richt refuse to use this formation. It work against VT then he got rid of it. We could move the ball with it. Deejay is more experienced making the reads than Rosier. **** **** me off.

For the brief time it was on the field last night, it looked like an extremely viable option. Edit: something I would defintely like to see a dozen times in the bowl game.
 
Very effective. Deejay has great vision and has a feel for the game. Need to recruit more players like that.

Was Nd.
 
DJ plays with HEART. He is fearless. That allows him to see the field, to make plays, and not make turnovers.
 
DeeJay has proven with every opportunity to be a much needed contributor to this offense. Richt didn't use him in the backfield until North Carolina, where he recorded only one run.
VT 6-32
ND 12-53
UVA 5-15
Pitt 3-4
Clemson 6-44

Compared to Homer:
GT 20-170
SU 20-95
NC 16-40
VT 14-95
ND 18-146
UVA 17-96
Pitt 7-12
Clemson 14-41

Richt had Homer on the field for all but 5 or so plays early on where Gray came in for him. Quite lucky Homer stayed healthy tbh.

Homers stats are a little misleading though. He'd rush for 3, then 1, then 2, then 40. The big play for every 15 minimal plays gives the illustration that Miami's run game was reliable and offered balance. The only consistency I saw in the running game was Dallas. Always falls forward, has elite vision, and knew more than Homer when to cut up-field when running the slow stretch plays to the outside. It kills me that Richt had enough belief in Dallas to execute the wildcat, but neglected to utilize him and feed him the ball more than 6 times per game.
 
I can almost guarantee you that DJ will run the wildcat against Whisky more than any other time this season. Mark knows that he has a month to figure out how to squeeze the most out of this QB situation, so he'll include wildcat, trick plays, etc, etc.

What makes you so confident? The wildcat vs ND was successful, but was never used again until last night. I have no faith Richt will a. recognize a good thing, and b. capitalize on what he knows is there.

This.
 
It would just seem logical to pursue this offense at this point in time. If there is any level that it can unequivocally work with the right pieces it is college football. Would love to see Dallas running power or handing it off to Lingard, Homer, Cam etc next year.

Yes, DeeJay is awesome at finding creases and fighting for yards. He's very intuitive and has a great feel for the game. With Rosier struggling mightily, we should see at least a couple of series with DeeJay in the wildcat against Wisconsin. While it will play into Wisconsin's strength as a defense, it may be the best option we have against them unless Rosier can regain some rhythm and confidence over the next few weeks.

It's a real shame that Rosier is struggling because Wisconsin has some really slow DBs that OSU totally embarassed on deep balls last night. If only Rosier could hit those...
