Does anyone still believe we're holding plays back?

I think this is all the offense has. 

Let me rephrase, I think this is all the offensive coaching staff has.

also, Gilbert is the only OC in USF history who would not have called a QB run on the last two plays before the FG at the end of the game.

We've seen more plays than we saw tonight...but no, I don't think there's any more than we've seen.  And Gilbert is just not good at playcalling, especially when the chips are down.

That fantasy was never anything but a fantasy.

What you see is what Gilbert has. The team itself is capable of more

Wishful thinking on our part.  Myself especially.

I never thought there were more plays I just think he doesn't use what he has to set things up. 

I also think the coaching staff puts too much on the defense meaning they go into "run up the middle" mode as soon as they go up a score.

Question, does it seem like Q is more reluctant to pull the ball down and run than he has been the previous 2 years

I think we just wanted to believe there had to be something more.   He was touted as an up-tempo Briles type offensive guru.  He took a potent offense and made it vanilla.  Yes, we lost some high caliber players, but the team still has a lot of talent.
