Why exactly is this sad?


Because inferior teams like Iowa will play to within 7 points of us, where one fluke turnover or bad call can change the outcome of the game. Sooner or later, teams will stack 9 defenders in the box, yet we will try to ram it right at them and "out-tough" them anyway. It makes for long stretches of time where our offense does nothing, and we have to pray for dear life that our defense can save us.

I hope you're right. I don't have a problem with a run-first philosophy. I have a problem with the run at all cost and hide your quarterback philosophy.

You're trying to glean WAYYYY too much from the bowl game. We were attempting to essentially run a totally different offense than we had run all year due to Mett's injury, and Jennings was clearly a little uncomfortable, it being his first career start and all. And we still won. Against a good defense.

We will absolutely be run-first and moreso than last year, because that's where our strengths lie. We have a brilliant offensive mind at the helm and he will use our personnel to their respective strengths.

We did the same thing against Florida and we got a win there too so we know it works on a good defenses. Both Iowa and Florida were known for stopping the pass which is why the plan called for run. Wisconsin loses their entire front seven, so you will see it at the start of next year with some play action passing. Sadly, or maybe stupidly, people don't understand that we'll still throw over 300 passes this year.
