Mario loves Michigan’s offense

Agreed. Miami is 8-1 or 9-0 with an NFL qb. There is no changing my mind on that.

What's crazy is Harbaugh went against his trends and tendencies against TCU. If Harbaugh kept the run game instead of having McCarthy force the issue early in the game, Michigan plays UGA for the title.

i just don't get it. every thread is riddled with "bro ball" and this is what he wants to do

we're fielding the right type of offense to be successful and playing to our strengths

if we had someone competent at QB we could be 8-1 or undefeated right now and it's very apparent that it's QB play and not play call / scheming issues that are holding us back

Not to get in between y'all two, but I think the OP is basically saying what you are saying just in a different way. I didn’t read it as him shading Mario, I read it as he agrees with the offense Mario want as we are seeing it works at Michigan.

However, I do agree that with McCartney we would be 9-0 without a doubt!
 
Michgan has ran too many screens in the 1st half for Miarios liking.

IOWA is the dream offense

I see Bama is beating the brakes off Tuck as per usual. Feels like the only "tuff N' fiscul" teams that ever give him trouble are the Georgia rosters that are so stacked they can run anything and be good.

I'll fux with an Ezekiel Elliot power spread behind an NFL OL tho.

This is just not true at all.

There were some bad INTs for Michigan.

But it’s the demand to keep running it and playing at a snails pace that killed them.

Michigan’s running game was inefficient all night. Which put them in bad 3rd down spots. Which is why their third down conversion rate sucked.

Harbaugh should have played pace to increase the number of snaps run in the game to mitigate the damage down by the INTs, and thrown it more. That’s when Michigan destroyed TCU.

Michigan had early success with the run but went away from it leading to the INTs. Harbaugh didn't do McCarthy any favors with how he called the game early.

This is exactly how he wants to be on offense. He needs to spend time with Harbaugh in the off-season to learn what it takes to pull it off.

Wrong. Cristobal loves Georgia's offense and is trying to load up both lines and build a team like that, which is much more athletic than Georgia.

He wants the Canes to look like the Dawgs and the top of the SEC, not a bloated Wolverines squad that goes to **** in a handbag when going up against any out of conference speed and athleticism outside of the Big Ten.
 
Whats crazy is both these teams beat up on bad teams and light it up on offense. Why does every team in the Big 10 go crazy conservative on offense when they play a competent opponent.... this is literally marios offense.
 
Also, the big boys handle Harbaugh’s offense.

UGA had no problem with it.

Even Ohio State last year, which had a sh*t defense.

Go look at how inefficient Michigan’s offense was that game. They had a few explosive plays, and then 3 yards and a cloud of dust.

But Michigan’s defense was so dominant, it allowed Michigan to just keep handing it off. And eventually Ohio State’s defense gave out from being on the field so much.

But it’s a **** offensive scheme/game plan that requires the defense to stop the other team all game for the offense to work.

What are you talking about? Michigan ran the ball 40 times in the game. They ran it a ton. They just weren’t getting much out of it.

Whereas they threw the ball 35 times for 345 yards.

The problem Michigan had is they burned too many plays, and too much clock, running Harbaugh’s I-Formation man ball.
