What’s so great about this O?

I would love to hear it. Sure it looks flashy on paper and against inferior teams, but it’s a total crap shoot vs a decent D. There’s really only one formation, yet it’s so hard to get everyone on the same page. Seems like only one player knows where the ball is going so the others can’t fire off the snap. Often a sign or read gets missed and confusion leads to disaster. There’s no one thing it does well; no bread-n-butter play. Which will always be inconsistent when you need 15 play drives to get a TD.
And it’s too dependent upon the qb. Jeb Choater even pointed this out again prior to the brawl. When Jensen goes down next year we are double-fucked
I like what NAU does. Heavy-set, under center, or spread em out, and everything in between, depending on the D. Mix it up or they’ll keep keying on Jensen until he’s knocked out again
 
Not sure if actually curious from a x&o standpoint or just venting...

Here’s a 3 part series on the horizontal passing/fly motion/run game, intermediate passing, and vertical concepts of stitt’s offense. This write up was done in 2015, and stitt’s O has adapted a bit in his 3 years at UM, but still a good read if you dig scheme and philosophy.

I believe a more comprehensive running game is needed but I’m no genius
 
Moot point now. It's gone. We'll see some ground and pound offense now that an entire different slate of egriz bitchers and moaners will complain about...
