Message: [QUOTE="nzm136, post: 2394566, member: 2531"] Tempo + more plays > slow pace + 3-0's > tempo + 3-0's Any team w/ an offense that consistently gets 3-0's can reasonably expect to lose big on a regular basis. Teams that eat more clock can just expect to lose by slightly less (the other team will get fewer chances to score, and the defense will be slightly more rested and therefore better). Tempo does, however, in and of itself create chances for highlights, which are good for recruits/recruiting. FWIW, I think that our starters are good enough to beat anyone (or at least have a puncher's shot), but there's more of a drop off between our starters and backups than our competition. I think that difference is part of why we're getting punished in November. Fortunately, though, I do think that this year's recruiting class is deeper than past ones, which will eventually increase our depth. [/QUOTE]
