I'm probably one of the few that ranks Thrower above sales. -
I didn’t check the non- conference games besides OSU. We ran 67 to 59 plays versus OSU. Kentucky ran 32 more plays than us including overtime. The defense could have done better, but the offense was the bigger issue. Texas had 3 3 and outs in the 4th quarter. Four of 6 2nd half possessions were 3 and outs. Perhaps you remember the failure to stay in bounds preceding the FG in regulation that kept UK alive. Arkansas ran 20 more plays, but we only had 3 guys with 50+ snaps. We also won going away. Every other conference game, and we were within 5 snaps. Only the MSU game had more than 70. So I’ll need some elaboration as to how Becton was the guy over PK in “so many” of these games.

A bend but dont break defense also compounds the problems for a bunch yardage system when the QB is cold. You end up having the QB sit on the bench for long periods of time while the defense gets worn out. The fact we were able to hang in on so many of these games is a testament to Torre Becton and not PK.

Completely agree. We were tragically inconsistent on first down. We either made a first down or were WAY behind the sticks. A bad cocktail of poor OL play, poor RB play, and ineffective passing plays / calls. Hopefully an improved OL and RB room provides the foundation for substantial improvement here.
