We had the ball the entire 2nd half yet never tried to establish a tempo running attack on what should have been a very tired defense......EVERY coach in the country besides ours would have gone to that especially since our 2 best play makers are RB's.Mertz threw for over 300 yards and completed 70% of his passes. He played more then good enough to win. We lost because the stupid penalties, the OL is shyt and sling blade went full sling blade everytime we got in the red zone.
Mertz isn’t the issue. The OL was a hot mess, the penalties were backbreaking and the play calling was mind boggling for the most part.Mertz threw for over 300 yards and completed 70% of his passes.

AR would have run for 150 yardsThread title is ridiculous. AR would have come up limping on the first drive and been a rattled, sulky mess the rest of the game. He would have thrown for about 90 yards.
No he wouldn't have. Do I have to go over some box scores from last year with you? And that was with a much better OL.AR would have run for 150 yards
Sure. Go over some box scores. AR ran for over 100 last year against the exact same defense.No he wouldn't have. Do I have to go over some box scores from last year with you? And that was with a much better OL.
AR hated to run. If he had loved to run, he may have won the friggin' Heisman Trophy.

Blaming the QB is the lazy take here. He threw for >300 on the road at more than 70% completion. Utah was stacking the box to make Billy’s passing attack beat them. Good on Billy for not running into that over and over but 6 yard crossers and swing routes all game aren’t going to beat anyone. Blame the passing scheme, not the QB.
