Title: Stat That Concerns Me Post by: pmull on September 06, 2017, 12:50:01 PM In our last three games we are 9 of 45 on 3rd down conversions. That is 20%.
3 of 16 FSU 2 of 15 Clemson 4 of 14 Washington These are three good teams with very good defenses but 20% is terrible. Our opponents are 17 of 49 for 35% in those games. Our defense is pretty good too. Our passing game has been non-existent in those games.

I'm hoping that the O is adjusting to Daboll's system and will improve once they grasp it. Having said that, there was a lot of the same ole, same ole against FSU. Title: Re: Stat That Concerns Me Post by: ricky023 on September 06, 2017, 04:30:33 PM I am beginning to wonder also. Is CNS telling the OC to dial it back so the players can learn without to much on them? I may be wrong but please explain to me if you would. RTR!
Title: Re: Stat That Concerns Me Post by: Marshal Dillon on September 06, 2017, 05:38:57 PM I think in some big games Saban plays it so conservative that it hurts the offense. See LSU 2016, Clemson 2017, Auburn 2009, 2010, Washington 2017.
:dunno: Title: Re: Stat That Concerns Me Post by: N.AL-Tider on September 07, 2017, 08:12:26 AM Those last three teams we played all had pretty good defenses so that accounts for part of it. I don't put it all on Hurts or our offense. Maybe the OC? :dunno:
Title: Re: Stat That Concerns Me Post by: ricky023 on September 07, 2017, 08:41:00 AM I think when CNS is sure Jalen can pass the ball good, he will turn the OC a loose with passes that will eat other teams up. Being able to hand off, run or pass is a lethal combo and we would be really powerful he he had all 3 down pat. RTR!
