We are seeing why they pass in the red zone. The line barely moves Umass enough to convert on 3rd and 1 (we got a favorable spot). The line is not nit opening holes for our RBs against a pitiful run defense. Butch stuck with Mahoney way too long, and while the line may be improving under Wells its no where near where we need to be.
Our WRs are more interested in blocking than getting open. Again this is UMass, not an elite SEC power. What ever happened to our speedy receivers just blowing by defenders (sort of like Florida did ours last week).
The Butch offense has been horrid every year. Dobbs being able to improvise and create something out of nothing was the only saving grace the last couple years. When he stayed within the Butch system, we lost to teams like South Carolina and Vandy. Something has to change
