[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 479557, member: 735"] Simplifying things can work great when you are physically manhandling your opponent. It’s also pretty wise when dealing with inexperience at a position (especially QB) or multiple positions. This isn’t rocket science. I don’t exactly know what the Oline foul ups were about vs. Duke but I saw VT try to do some similar things as them with zero success. So we seem to have sorted that problem out. As coaches say...it’s never as good or bad as it seems. We have a darn good Oline and they are playing at a high level now. Having said that we still can’t afford to shoot our selves in the foot with penalties and turnovers. CPJ has alluded that this is even more important this year because we are lacking some big play ability at some spots. I’m not sold on this being 100% the case. I think our lack of plays 20 yds or more is due to our lack of a pass threat again this year. Even when we block everything right we aren’t breaking the big runs because DBs are crashing down hard in run support. (We have come very close several times but....) We haven’t been able to make anyone pay for that “cheating” with any big pass plays. So we never get them on their heels or run out of the play area. This is true for both TM and TO. As well as both have played and for all of the great plays they have each made in the run game. Each QB brings a different skill set. Both can be very productive for us. But until we can hit some big pass plays....we won’t be functioning at our optimum best. For all that being said....I’m far less worried about any issue on O as I am for issues on D. The D is making strides though. [/QUOTE]
