Anybody know how beat up Kent might be coming into Oxford next Saturday? If Chuck’s scheduling theory holds sway, they should be down to their twos and threes already. There’s no info posted for them on my injury report tracker…
We know they can still score points - put up 21 at Washington and 22 at Georgia. We put up 17 at Northwestern and 20 at Buffalo.
Miami stats: 77th in rushing offense; 119th in total offense; 123rd in passing offense and 113th in scoring.
If we can’t find a more productive offense 5-7 looks like a distinct possibility…
We’ve never been a high completion percentage offense.

Our OC calls hopeless deep passes like he’s a 6 year old playing Madden. The only QB to put up a decent completion percentage was Ragland, but that was mainly because he didn’t have the arm strength for the deep throws, so the OC had to call more of the short/medium pass plays that we normally never see.
I hear ya…in the end though our QB accounted for more than 265 yards and two TDs and our D generally dominated…INT led to field position for UB and blown coverage on D led to another TD, plus a bunch of penalties.
If Aveon can increase his passing to 150 yards per game and rush for ~100, plus a collective 100+ yards from our RBs, we can win some games…maybe 4 more, but that’s all I see…bummer we let this one slip away.
“Our OC calls hopeless deep passes like he’s a 6 year old playing Madden”
So true on OC…I cannot stand this chuck it up game…might be defining quote of CM tenure!
It’s not that it can’t work, but really only does if you have a dominant run game, which we never establish. This that is our only hope…run, baby, run!
