Yep, was going to make a similar post, 35 to the 10 is the zone of death this year.   For a long time it was the close redzone for Marrone.  Those teams had a ton of trouble punching it in from close.

Hunt is money from the 10 in.

The last two games they have done what I was talking about after CMU, generate more yards per attempts.   If they can keep that up and run the ball well, which they didn't against ND, the 3rd down conversions and points should come.   The improvement in chunk plays the last two weeks have shown that Hunt is capable of making those throws, run game has been good for the most part the last two years.  It's up to McDonald and Lester to get it going together, improve efficiency and they be where they should be relative to last year and where they need to be this.

The QB is good enough and the supporting talent is good enough to have the points catch up to where they are in total offense, which is top 50, which is much better than last year.   Improve 3rd down, score some points, that will help the defense and six, seven, eight regular season wins are in reach.

The offense doesn't need massive improvement or overhaul, just better execution in key spots and areas of the field.
