I have a hard time figuring out if we are good or not.  yds per play when you dont have tons of big plays make you look avg..  we go on too many long drives to say we are not a good offense even with the limitations we have in the run game. But you cant be an elite offense if you cant run on running downs and you dont get big plays to add easy scores into the mix.

Its like tryting to understand how BC scores 35 against FSU while gaining 300 yds yet got 10 vs VT with 330 yds and 10 vs Wake with 300 yds.. We probably will gain 100-150 more yards next week and have to work to break 25 like we always do against the better teams.   We will have 200-250 in a half and score 10-14 pts.    But we dont get many easy scores, we get few ST/D scores and we dont turn the ball over enough for short fields that we follow up with TDs.  Shoot we lost the MTSU game if for no other reason we ran back an INT to the 5 and had to kick a FG which ended up meaning we couldnt kick Fgs at the end of the game.

We are good at moving the ball, not so good at scoring, as you said it has to get better since its hard to sustain yds without points over the long haul
