Back to the vanilla offense. When it works, it's great. When it doesn't - it becomes a slow moving, predictable loser of an offensive game plan. Can we please just mix in a few sweeps , different short pass routes, and other plays? This is what Charlie Taffe did so well in the second part of his UCF career.
I do agree that this feels like a Tim Salem dumbed down offense, and we all know how that goes when it doesn't work. Sure, some of that is because we need to keep it simple with all the personal turnover, but some of it is our offensive lack to adapt, which becomes predicable for the opponent. I mean Stanford knew where the plays were going before we did it seemed. When there is a running play, everyone knows where it's going. There is no guess work, no fakery, mo misdirection.
Take 10% of the practice time and develop new plays. It might get us a few more wins this year, and be a lot more fun than vanilla.
