We don't have to throw the ball around like Oregon to be successful, we just need to execute better on the plays we are calling. We will improve at the QB position, but the receivers will still need to catch the ball when we do. Teams that have the ability to run the football at will complete passes when needed, are the ones that win championships. Our offense will improve, our defense will be lights out next year, but we ain't ever gonna run the fun and gun. So I guess you'll still be here next year complaining when we are winning all these, low scoring games, by a slim margin. The formula of conservative football is tried and true. Just because you think is antiquated, doesn't make it any less so. Our time is coming, no one thought it would be this year. We are exactly what we thought we would be. After the State and Auburn games, no one gave this team a chance to even stay on the field with Bama, now you're in here bitching, instead of praising the team for a hard fought performance. I bet you are the kind of guy that ended up with a 7, but still thinks he could have gotten a 9 or 10, But in all actuality you should have ended up with a 3 or a 4, but you will never be satisfiedbecause in your mind you think you could have done better, all the while never realizing just how lucky you are.

We should see a pretty big improvement on offense next season.
Seriously, take a look at the returning 2-deep at every skill position. Jennings/Harris at QB, Fournette/Williams at RB, Dural/Quinn/Dupre/Diarse at WR. That's an impressive group, and most will also be there for 2015 at the least.

You think the passing game won't improve? You don't think those guys are gonna hook up and work on timing etc over the offseason? Even if you doubt the coaches' abilities, the players themselves should be able to tighten a lot of things up.
Quinn will regain his hands. Dural will add some muscle and improve his routes. Dupre should make a huge leap forward, along the lines of what Fournette did in midseason; or for that matter, what Dural did between last year and this. Diarse remains a better 4th WR than many team's 2nd guy, and he's just a redshirt freshman. Fournette has shown some downfield route running and catching ability you don't see from big backs in the NFL. All this will be utilized in time, you just have to be patient.

This year, we are young, and it shows. Next year, we will be young but experienced.

yes your right. I am so happy that we have no passing game and will in all likely hood finish up the season mid pack of the SEC west. So glad to see our players play their hearts out and still not get the W even though they could have gotton the W and be in the chase for the SEC west title if the offense had any semblance at all of a real college level passing attack. And once again, why do you for some reason equate the ability to complete a simple forward pass with a 'fun and gun' or 'air raid ' offense? You make no sense at all to me.
