Just a few numbers im close too prior to tonight, (in regard to the "running game")
VS Northwestern, 19/44 passing? Over the last 7 years we have lost 75% of the games we passed 30+ times. Winning teams are passing 7-16 times. (running game)

By the way, : The no running game thing??? We have 5 capable backs.
Rough 2 weeks ahead w Rittman coming off a big win and Smithville with a huge win. Points on the line. Playoffs or basketball season?
I completely agree the we need to establish a running game and I think I have been pretty consistent with that haven't I? Mama great job:RpS_blink: on gathering those stats but let's not forget this...chances are in those games we were probably playing catch up in a short amount of time sooooooo let's see here....we could run (when it ain't working) and eat up more clock or pass and try to score quickly....hence the 30+ passing attempts. That's the reason we passed 44 times last week because we had NO running game and we were down 2-3 scores most of the 2nd half. Nice try though on either blaming the coach or the qb or WAIT...it's a conspiracy that's politically motivated...that's right! By the way Mama...last night we had 242 yds rushing and 232 yds passing...errr idk (yuck, yuck) but that looks kinda balanced to me :RpS_glare:
By the way beast...I agree we have capable (be careful because that word is close to potential) backs but that hasn't translated to a consistent running game for some reason... Also, don't forget to add "or wrestling season?" to the end of your enlightening post because we have a good number of wrestlers on the team don't we? Just more evidence for my exposure campaign or is it all just a conspiracy....
