[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 686612, member: 4572"] But how much of that can actually be credited to the play calling itself and not the execution on the field? A lot of those incomplete passes you mention are very high percentage throws, that most other teams probably complete ~80%+ of, while Tech was probably around 50% or below. When you can’t throw the ball and the defense doesn’t respect the pass, it makes it extremely difficult to run. People talk about “abandoning the run” a lot on this board. So can someone point me to a game where Tech was having sustained success running the ball and then abandoned it? The [I]only [/I]games I remember from this season where the running game was efficient were the Miami and NC St games. There’s also a [I]ton [/I]of examples of the read option and designed runs from the gun in every game. When you can’t block, it doesn’t matter what plays you call, none of them will be successful.
