Totally agree when/if your all-run plan is materially worse than your balanced attack. Given we can't line up and run it down Bama's throat...but even Chryst put up 21 last year on them...I'd agree with you. It may not only lead to less ball control, but also fewer points.

And then there's image. How does it look if we show up, on national tv, clearly trying to lose by as little as possible? How do recruits see that? How do dogs like JJ feel about that and affect him going forward? I think he and the national audience would have much more respect if we got blown out going balls to the wall than blown out running every play.

This idea that we can line up against Bama and milk the clock for 4 quarters and keep it respectful is totally bogus iyam. That said, I wouldn't be against a run heavy approach.
Agreed...I'm for whatever gives a punchers chance..
 
Only thing I dislike about the Nike units are the number font... looks cheesy and I’d rather us just go back to the font of the 90’s generic af and kicking ass.
 
Dude
Gotta love the ballsy move by Stoops. Rather than accept having the worst QB in the nation, he throws his best playmaker back there. I wish we'd spend just 1 spot on that kind of guy - a great runner capable of taking snaps at QB. You never know when you could utilize him and meantime he can be a WR. Feels like a blindspot we don't have a true DT QB on the team. I'm talking a guy fast enough to even make plays horizontally. We don't have that.
dude they barely beat Arkansas with that, we will destroy Kentucky if that’s the game plan they trot out there. Stoops LOST to Pruitt with Kentucky’s best football team ever.

Not wrong, but I wouldn’t classify this kid as a mobile qb. His arm is slaw.

We shall see..you don’t have to be Tom Brady for a defense to respect you..making easy big gains plays will made a defense scrap the game plan..it doesn’t help the DL hasn’t been getting pressure either,other than last week.
 
Hopefully JG plays. I’m interested to see if he can perform as well as he did against state. That was the guy we expected to see coming into the season. Didn’t ask him to do much other than play smart.

I’m hoping we have the same mentality against bama this week: run the ball, kill clock, and play sound defense. Keep Tua and the WR corp off the field as much as possible
He didn't do anything in the gam. He had that one completion down field to Keyton ( that the defender could have intercepted had he not dropped his coverage, Keyton even had to slow down for it) the rest were within 5 years or so.

How did we do against Kentucky’s mobile quarterback last year? I’ll hang up and listen.

🙄 you do realize that last year they tried to force the run game down our throats using the best running back they have ever had come through the University of Kentucky,who also was drafted pretty high. two years in a row now our strong point on Defense has been stopping the run versus Passing...last year they didint use the mobile QB like they did in previous games they were winning and in my opinion that was a failed gameplan by Stoops.the game last year in my opinion could have been won by Kentucky if stoops gameplan wasn’t strictly trying run the ball through the RB
