True. In fact, why bother even getting yards at all, right?

Well done. Yards per play is a better indicator that total yards

Or it just means you have terrible down management if your offense isn't picking up first downs. Yeah you may be getting lots of yards per play, but you aren't managing your down, distance or time. ... it's really meaningless if not taken in context.

What's our record over those years? We are a running team. We aren't going to consistently have years like 2006 or 2013 where the passing game was a legit weapon. I like our rushing attack. I like our play calling. If you want a flashier team go watch A&M.

I prefer a team that can run. Being forced to pass on 3rd and 2 every time because you have no confidence in running is every bit as bad as being scared shitless to throw on 3rd and 5.

I don't want flashier. I want more productive. You can be "non flashy" to a fault if you do so at the expense of production.

OSU was 15th in 2003 and 105th in 2004.
