Problem is that our 1st downs haven't looked any different than 3rd downs for most of the year. We keep it on the ground.
That doesn't mean it isn't easier to make those calls on 1st down. Which was Miles whole point. You have a lot more options on 1st down

That worked for the most part because we were able to stay ahead of the chains on 1st & 2nd downs. We had a lot of 3rd and shorts. When we had 3rd and long, we were not very good, especially with JJ at QB. Les knows that of course but with our defense he chose to play it safe and let the D get the ball back for us. That works against nearly every college team out there. It worked against every team we played this year except Alabama because their defense is good enough to keep us in bad down/distance situations and their offense is good enough to move the ball on our defense.
