[QUOTE="BCJacket, post: 619540, member: 2332"] Maybe I'm the only one, but I thought the offensive gameplan against Clemson was actually pretty good. 'No plan survives contact with the enemy.' I doubt there was any possible plan that could have survived contact with Clemson's D. I'll grant, some of the individual play calls were head-scratching. But (without the benefit of 20-20 hindsight), our best chance to pull the upset was probably to do what we did. Play to our strengths, try to keep the ball on the ground, minimize turnovers, run the clock, control the ball... Yes, that is CPJ's philosophy. But he didn't invent any of those concepts. To think we could come out and sling the ball around against Clemson's secondary would have been insane. Especially in our first game in the new offense. We'll see, but I'd bet we see a lot more spread and passing, and less option rush, moving forward. My biggest concern with CDP was that he was going to be stubborn about committing to the pass, even if we're not set up to do it. What I saw looked like a reasonable transition hybrid between what our players know and what he wants to do. I don't know if it works. But I'd prefer him use our players, best suited to the option, to run a version of the option. Rather than insist we run some 'system' of his without the personnel to do it effectively. [/QUOTE]
