passing yds can be created by several things. I think we have 2-3 good route runners. west/ish/lewis. Good route runners can get open in 20-30 yd windows.  when the field shrinks the windows to run/throw into get smaller and we start to struggle.  CLoose even sited an example of how West was winning the battle at the line and getting open for 30-40 yd pass plays..  A playmaker takes it to the house.

I think we have seen at least 2-3 hunt runs that should have been TDs, Gulley had 1 long one and probably should have had 5 more. Moore had at least 2,  West has had probably 4-5, Lewis 2-3, Estime was just flat out missed on 2-3.

You can go back and find probably 5-8 lost TD passes because our guys lack speed or Hunt missed the throws.   Look at the lewis 50 yd pass last week and the West play at the end of the half.  Any doubt the Maryland or ND kids dont score on both?

Do we have a RB that is tough to tackle like the UL kid was last week?  We have some hard runners but that adds 3-4 yds, they seldom turn into 20-25.  Our guys have run to the wrong hole a dozen times this year and turned big plays into tackles.  Our YAC is awful, no one other than West breaks a tackle at WR.
