not that i'm expecting a breakdown but i suspect run pass ratio changes as competition improves. i could be wrong. chip posted something about the first plays of bcs vs non bcs (or maybe it was fcs vs fbs... something like that)
It was just first play of the game. I just noticed that RI was the only game that our first offensive play was a pass. Generally meaningless, which is why I indicated as such.
Still, I don't know why Go is getting defensive on this one. What does he think people are going to talk about the week after a loss in which we ran the ball our first 6 plays? One which our OC said before the game that our gameplan was to run right at them and wear them down. One which our HC told his most trusted newspaper writer that our gameplan was to run right at them and wear them down. One which we couldn't move the ball very much on the ground but had a lot of success moving it through the air.
It's a discussion board, and this has made for great discussion, good set of stats being brought in. But still looked at as everyone wanting Marrone fired I guess.
Oh, and from the Just Sayin' department. Two weeks before our game, USF held the Big East's best RB (Pead from Cincy) in check, one of his worst games, while Cincy passed for 389. One week before our game, USF held Rutgers to -7 on the ground (I know RU can't run) and 235 thru the air in a loss.
