I don't know if he is being coached this way or what, but Allen clearly has no clue how to run the read option.  You've got the NW ends crashing inside all game - the edges are wide open - pull the ball out and run Drew!  We are handing the ball off right into the strength of their defense.  And while I'm on Allen please move around in the pocket a little - if your going to throw sidearm at head level at least create some better, open angles so you don't get picked or balls batted down all the time.

I vote for giving Allen and Hunt equal time in the Wagner and Tulane games...whoever is more productive starts against Clemson.  I realize it was garbage time, but Hunt is Waaay more athletic than Allen, throws overhand and gives the defense something to be concerned with...a QB that can run!

As for McDonald, how about we go with the KISS strategy.  We've got good experienced players on offense that don't seem to know what to do.  Get a handful of plays and do them well...stop trying to outsmart the defense - establish an identity and make the defense defend it.  When players are thinking too much they don't play as fast.  IMO, Hickey, Macky, Trudo, Smith and PTG are not playing to their potential - that's is on the coaches.

Whew, O.K. got that off my chest...feel better now.
