We have everything between 20-yard lines down pretty well. Now... can we master the short game, and 3rd downs? If we can then the sky really is the limit.
I don't know what you are thinking of, but BN has, at times, gotten conservative with playcalling. And, BN has admitted it, so I am not making this up. His history as a head coach reveals he mostly wins or loses games by close margins. I get Napier, he likes to play ball control, but that doesn't work in the SEC. I hope Steve Spurrier has his ear this year, because the old ball coach knew how to light up the score board!
We got conservative on Tennessee and lost that is true. Spurrier and Tennessee was decided on who rushed the ball better almost every year for a decade. Its not called going conservative when Freddie eats your ass foe 100 in the second half. When you cant run at will, you are foced to pass. If you run it twice and get continuous first downs, that breaks a defense. SOS ran alot more than people memories recall. When he ran successfully, he won alot more games. Trask was great and all but we had to keep throwing because on obvious run plays , we couldnt impose our will.
