The amount of 3 and outs by this offense is a little concerning.  5 field goals last night because drives stalled.  I just feel like this offense is going to bite us in the *** at some point.

we will be in trouble if a team can stop the runs between the tackles. I hope it's just Gilbert calling a conservative game considering the score. this seems like an easy offense to stop. last year I felt we could score at will. this year not so much.

we need to use our speed to our advantage. attack the edges. use misdirection.  Gilbert is predictable

This.  We were sweating Stony Brook because we only rushed for 153 yards.  If someone like Houston, UCF or (potentially) Memphis can shut down our inside running game this offense is in trouble.

3-16 on third down conversions is a big issue.  Shows in the number of field goals

Every team we've played thus far has not been good enough to capitalize on our mistakes.  We can't out-athlete good teams.  Houston and Memphis would both have beaten us tonight.

If we played last night we beat Memphis. UCLA has NO defense so no way Memphis would have gone up and down the field on us like that. Further, Memphis has a terrible D. As far as Houston your statement is more accurate but their offense is not gangbusters either. It would be a defensive game for sure.

Last night was the first game we fully committed to the inside running game, probably because of the opponent, and it worked out just fine. The play calling hasn't been a "problem" so far, if you really need to find a "problem", execution has ....

Exactly.  Stupid false starts.  Flowers dropped the snap twice and missed WRs and we still have too many dropped passes.

Flowers was too amped for this game and lost focus.

We made 2 fourth down plays and got stuffed once, and I would swear we didn't punt 11 times. What's wrong with the #'s here?
