[QUOTE="year_of_the_swarm, post: 641353, member: 3149"] Yea he passed for 376 yards, but he also had something like 55 attempts... The problem isn't his yardage total, it's the total amount of plays they ran. That is a direct reflection of the inept offense that can't keep the defense off the field. They ran about 100 plays. One of the advantages "the option" gives you is a better chance at ball control... Last year against UNC GT won time of possession 36 to 23. This year they lost it 36 to 23. Pretty odd that it was an exact swap, but it shows the difference. The year before against North Carolina, GT won time of possession 38 to 21. Georgia Tech ranks 125th in the nation (nearly dead last) in time of possession.... The only time that stat is not a problem is if you are scoring so fast that it hurts the stat. That is obviously not the case with Tech, who ranks dead last in scoring offense in the country. Currently Navy leads the nation in time of possession. They also lead the nation in rushing yards at 345 per game, and are #30 in the nation in scoring offense at about 37 points per game. They control the clock, they score points, and they wear you out with the run. All that being said... the yards the QB threw for are good, but not that great when you consider the attempts and the amount of plays they ran. Can't blame the defense for that. The nations worst offense is to blame. [/QUOTE]
