If the players execute for the next few games and we win a big time bowl game why would we need a new OC?
I agree, but "if" is a big word to only be spelled with 2 letters. You think that the O will play that well the rest of the season??

I would love to see an actual OC because i don't like the dynamic we have, but you can't bring in a primary OC with Miles, it won't work.

wouldn't be surprised if they did. we've gotten the TOs under control, the revamped OL has settled in and gotten better with time, and I think the bye did the trick for Mett and the WRs getting on the same page.
not to mention the hardest part of the regular season schedule appears to be done. I think we'll be riding high headed into Arky.

Absolutely.
Like ATLTiger said
1. The turnovers are under control. 0 TOs against the vaunted Bama defense and A&M. Only 1 against USCe giving us 1 TO in the last 3 games - impressive.
2. The line has 2 freshman and a sophomore which were all inexperienced. They grew up in the USCe game and gained a lot of confidence. Who wouldn't say that the OL has been one of the STRONG points the last 3 games when everyone was worried about how bad it was before that?
3. The light came on for Mettenberger in the second half against Bama. The talent has been there all along like everyone thought it would, the game was just moving to fast for him. Who in the hell would have thought it would have come on in the biggest game of the year against the best defense in the country, but it did. I look for him to have 4 very solid games to close out the season.
4. Jeremy Hill has emerged as the featured back among the stable of RBs that we have. He is the total package. Hes fast, elusive, has good vision and finds the right holes. He looks like he will be a weapon for a couple of years.
5. The WRs have had the drops this season. That is a confidence issue, not ability. They dropped a pass or two against Bama early on but then really stepped up big time in the game. They gained a lot of confidence and will continue to play like they did in that game.
The play calling has not been as HORRIBLE as everyone is making it out to be, to the point where we need to fire the OC. The players simply haven't executed to the best of their abiliies. See the 5 points above and think about how they were all playing early in the season and how they played against Bama. Think about it, the talent is CLEARLY there, they simply were not executing early on. Now we know that they can.

Yes. Mett is finally getting his feet under him and our offensive line (that has had more injuries than I've ever seen) is finally gelling together and stabilizing. Barring all those injuries early on, I surmise we would have hit this stride on offense long ago.
