Against, if so good then why not in the mediocre ACC's title game? Medicore passing stats on 100 tosses for the entire season. Lost 2 of their final 5 games, struggled vs Gardner-Webb, Clemson..tussles vs BC, VT, Va, FSU..4 of 5 games played away from Dodd were basically 3 pt games(winning but 3 of 5)..etc..
But with the way our offense has played this year, when we get up against defenses with tendencies similar to your own, we have run pretty wild.
UVA, UNC played sound defense and tackled well, they managed to stop us + we turned it over 3 times in each game(leading to 21 of UNC's 28 points).
Gardner Webb we did not run our offense. Our third string QB is literally incapable of it(he is solely a drop back passer)..We called "dive, keep, or pitch" before every play, no option at all.
FSU we were stomping until our starting QB went out. FSU fans will tell you this.
Our first 3-4 games of the year we didn't have a clue what we were doing, BC and VT were total crapshoots...everyone seems to forget that this is the first year we have run this offense, with players recruited for something else.

Good stuff Techin, good to know the Cliff Notes version, without having to watch a season's worth of option.
