Why we can't run the football....

Our YPC hasn't been terrible outside of MSU. We have WAY more success running to the outside.

Or vice versa....we can't throw downfield because opponents can stop our run with 6 in the box.

6 in the box.

Try 7 or 8!

we're getting the yards from the option

which is key in a spread option.

same reason we are not consistent with the pass.........................O-Line

I feel like we dont get the yards we want because we are so damn predictable. we have no outside game for some reason (which I feel like was our number 1 strength so far) which makes it very easy for the defense to load up the box. If its not coming up the middle, its most likely an option to the short side..which is so STUPID if our WR's arent going to block. I feel like a well coached high school defense could stop us right now when it comes to the running game.

I think its a combination of things. You cant argue that all the fault lies with the fullback. The main reason we CANT run between the tackles is because the defense is taking it away.......putting 7-8 in the box and darring us to throw.

Our playcalling has been somewhat predictable on first downs and to the short side of the field.

My main concern is with the lack of physical play by the O-line (a departcher from the past). We are allowing contact to be made behind the LOS too often. It's not only that we arent opening enough holes, but we are not getting a big enough push up front.
