FSU was #2 in total defense last season and #23 in total offense. I think I would want improvement on the offense if I was an FSU fan. ?????

I could be mistaken but I thought FSU led the country in sacks last year under little Stoops. The game I watched them play against Florida it seemed like the O was the thing that let you down. But like I said I only watched one game.
Well I was mistaken (nothing new) In your two losses NC state scored a whopping 17 points. Can blame that one on the D but Florida scored 37. They only did that against one other team and that was USCe. That is a bad day for the defense. I always look at from the standpoint that if the D is holding them under 21 they are doing their job.
FSU went on to win the 16th and final BCS championship this year.
No no we were all mesmerize by your analytical skills.Damn, I didn't realize this was an old post from 2013. Ignore that last post
You know...he's got something here. Well, from my personal experience anyway.ask Brent Venables what happens when you ask football players to think too much.
just say'in
Relax fella. There are still 5/6 months until college football starts back up. Other than posting up our ooc schedules, speculating, and talking about who got arrested.... there isn't much going on. The brothers are as cool as it comes, tin man is a little out there but a good guy, and I talk more shit about what goes on in Knoxville than anyone on the board. No one is expecting much. 6-6 would be great. Hopefully the future is bright. For someone like you, who carries a great deal of knowledge when it comes to talking about football, I find it funny that a team like Tennessee rustles those fucking jimmies as much as I have with this thread.2013...2018...what does it matter.
It's still the same theme...

Our issues in the past had basically taken away some of the natural athletic abilities of the kids out there playing.That's actually saying a great deal.
The only time any coach should want his players thinking is when the play is signaled in from
the sideline or the defensive scheme is signaled in. Then they have a few seconds to digest what
they have to do.
The offense should have it the easiest. But, sometimes coaches outcoach themselves by adding
in "options" for their players. Example when the QB and the WR each must read the db to determine
the route. That's a problem just waiting to happen. The wr makes one move and runs the skinny post.
The QB throws the 5-yard out and the db winds up with the ball running 60 yards for a pick 6.
Defense, when they have multiple tasks, just hang on, because you don't really know what's going
to happen.
I know that all coaches say they scout themselves, but I really question that. I know FSU couldn't
possibly be scouting our own defense, not when we had the exact same breakdown in every game
for 4 years. There always was one or two times in a game, where wr's were running all alone down the
center of the field. One game the opponent ran a wheel route where we didn't have anybody
in the same area code as the receiver.
The opponents are jumping up and down celebrating and our db's and lb's are all just staring
at each other, wondering what happened.
NASA doesn't hire Walmart employees to program the reentry of a capsule. Coaches should never
put future Walmart employees in a position where they have to think when the ball is snapped.
