There are 12,000 empty seats in the Carrier Dome that suggest otherwise.

I'm really getting tired of how statements like that get tossed around. The fan isn't so simple minded. The fan is a sophisticated consumer. They should be treated as such. Any old product isn't good enough - if you want to attract fans you need to offer the best product.

Is the offense we trot out the best product we can? Judging it against the general landscape in college football right now I would have to say it is not.

My definition of putting on a show is playing high scoring aesthetic football. Due to the conditions in which we're privileged to play, I am not content with any offense that does that - I think we need to play to our institutional strengths and adopt a pass happy, high paced offense. Do fans even realize that we're the only BCS program lucky enough to play in the stable conditions of a Dome? The only one, and we leave so much benefit on the table by not playing to the strengths of a Dome.
