Agree with that assessment.  Hopefully for us next year the passing game becomes the proper complement to the running game.  As I mentioned before we have a true soph QB throwing mainly to 2 true frosh WRs and a RS frosh TE.  Against WI our first 3 drives ended like this: true frosh dropped pass, other true frosh dropped pass, RS frosh TE fumbles.  We're experiencing some growing pains.  Last year that was our OL as we had a bunch of RS frosh and sophs playing on the line.  Now those guys are mainly JRs and we're having more success on the ground but yea the key to beating us is to get us in 2nd and 3rd and long situations by stacking the box.  I expect our OC to mix things up with some PA passes early and a controlled attack utilizing our FB and TEs and Cobb out of the backfield.  Another thing to watch out for is that the routes we've run have opened up as the year's gone on and the frosh have gotten more comfortable in the offense.  We went down field to those guys more against MSU and WI than we had in the past albeit with mixed results against very good defenses but I wouldn't be shocked to see a more open passing attack now that those guys have 3 weeks of practice to settle in
