Sark's switch to the up tempo offense might actually help his playcalling.

The up tempo offense works best when you run the ball a lot and doesn't work at all when you throw a bunch of incomplete passes.

    He will mange to call a bunch of plays that result in incomplete passes. Rendering this whole experiment useless.

    HTH.

    That is the probable downside. Incompletions (especially long ones) absolutely kill the tempo.

    can you run long routes to the sidelines and substitute without a huddle?

    If you substitute, you have to allow the defense to substitute also.

    I don't think Sark's intention is to run the ball a lot. He keeps saying Price was better when they played faster. That implies passing.

    Are you the same employee you were 5 years ago? I'm not....I'm much better at what I do now.

    Perhaps Sark will improve also??

    And I still think Chip met with his buddy Sark and showed him the UO offense and how the hurry-up works. We'll see if he was really listening....

    How different are you from last year? Sark didn't get it coming in and I don't see any evidence that he gets it now. I think he is making changes to his offense because he is floundering and has to show he is trying something.

    I hope it works.

    The problem is that you can't run up tempo well with incompletions, because they give the defense time to substitute.

    If they're going to pass a lot, it's going to be dink and dunk.

    Sark is the same coach he was three years ago. Does that count?
