Offensively we are similar to NW when Coulter was in the game (run first QB). We run out of the pistol a lot, did not call a lot of play action although it was pretty successful when we did. Our wide receivers are pretty average and had trouble getting separation. Our #1 receiver is a converted QB and our most common pass play is a wr screen for about 4-5 yards.

Our run game consistently gets 3-4 yards a play when Jerome is in with a couple long runs sprinkled in. When we had our two RF RB's in, we tended to get a 8-9 yard run or stuffed at the line.

As others have said, we tended to play pretty well against run first offenses as long as they did not have a QB who was a running threat. Clemson torched us in the pass game, NW torched us, FSU torched us, GT was an all around nightmare and that was about it. We held Pitt's passing game which was pretty good to a respectable amount. Spread offenses that had NFL offensive talent kicked our butts.
