End of Season Offense Stats

[QueenCityGator]

Team passing - 82
Team rushing - 27
Total offense - 42
Scoring - 22

My thoughts: happy with the improvement on all fronts (especially scoring). It was fun watching us being offensively competent the vast majority of the time.

Even that 82nd passing ranking is improvement. Is it possible for Franks to get us into the 50s? That’s the million dollar question.

Name and town if you wish to opine.

Play calling and execution improved as we went along. So glad to see after so many incompetent years. Mullen has a championship attitude so lets hope he can follow thru. Its been way too long.

Never could’ve imagined such a turnaround in year one. What was our scoring offense last year? In the 100’s?

It just amazes me how bad the shark fvker is.

Can't really blame a lot of recruits for not wanting to touch past hot garbage. Glad numbers are out so they can see things are changing.

If FF could learn to hit on the wide open long balls we missed.....keep making the baby steps to leaps of improvement :)

Go Gators

I think it was off the charts.

Just astounding what better coaching does.

not much of a thread cause the numbers and improvement and positive direction of the program cannot be disputed. Go Gators!!

It's quite a step up with more or less the same players. Not too many freshman really made a huge impact. Coaching S&C are about the only thing you can put that on... That's a wow from me.

Making it to 22 for scoring is good, especially considering how we would bog down in the redzone, left a lot of points on those drives.

We probably would have been in the 50's had Franks been able to go through his progressions better, and hit wide open receivers in almost every game. But without a doubt, there was improvement with him and the passing game. Another take is the type of passing game, the bubble screen, short passing game doesn't put the numbers that pass happy teams taking shots all over the field have.

Bottom line, this is the kind of improvement we needed. Another year with the system, the whole team should make bigger strides.

Go Gators

The passing yards per game isn't that bad when you consider even the 2008 squad was 61st in passing yards per game. This isn't a passing first offense, and with all the offenses who do nothing but pass, you can take that ranking with a grain of salt. Also take into account that a team like Washington St., who is #1 in passing yards this year, is also 129th out of 130 in rushing yards per game. How you get the yards doesn't really matter sometimes as long as you get them.

How you get the yards doesn't really matter sometimes as long as you get them.

It's also important to note how we finished, moving the ball at will and scoring a bunch against two pretty talented defenses. If we average 450+ yards next year like we did in the last two games, we will be top 20-25ish.

And 40ish points is top 10.

That is all, carry on

Night and day compared to the last 8 years regardless of the numbers. All you have to do is watch the O and can see the difference. Toward the end of the season you even felt confidence that Franks would make the plays when needed. It was actually fun again.

I'm starting to think you have paranoid delusions. No one said anything negative. Who the F are you talking g to?

He lives on cocaine and red bull. I doubt he can hear anything. Just a constant ringing.

Well, I didn't think it was possible for Franks to improve to his now level. Maybe he can make a bigger leap this year, beat everybody out again and turn all those tears of relief into greatness.

What? I don't get it. Oh, now I get it. You are saying that since everybody could see by watching the games we didn't need the thread, right? Actually, I need all the positive reinforcement I can get.
