People watching Miami-VT are probably saying 14-0, wasnt that the score an hour ago?

This was bound to be an effect of playing two cupcakes in a row, which of course there wasn't much choice.

We're at 1 of 4 for 3rd down conversion efficiency. This explains the lack of points. We've had a lot of nice plays that go 20 yards here, 20 yards there, but those mean nothing if we can't sustain them & convert on those 3rd downs. Not being able to see the game, I can't say for sure why we haven't converted them. Bland playcalling is a strong possability, but doubtfully the only culrpit.

I agree that it is hard to tell exactly what the deal is. But when your completion percentage is this high, and avg per carry this high, playcalling seems to be to 90%er

The offense is playing to limit turnovers & penalties - keeping things simple but effective. The offense's job is to put enough points on the board to win the game. I, just like everyone else, can get frustrated when we go to this bland type of offense, but it isn't necessarily a fault of Jimbo or Miles'. It's a philosophy held by a lot of successful teams & coaches.

I agree. Two other things - Prevent injuries and show as little as possible, play-wise, on offense.

And they'd be correct.

21 - 0. A little more respectable.

Holding back is the worst way possible to try and prevent injuries. If that was the concern, none of the starters would be playing.

At least we are up 2 more points than Miami is up on VT.
