John Ross is the whole offense, can't get 3 yards to save their lives

Anyone who can shut down Ross is going to curb stomp this SmithFS offense.

Way to read too much into a scrimmage

Seriously? That O was so vanilla. His talent is so awesome you can't hide it.

Running plays were vanilla, but not being able to average more than 3 yards/carry against Rutgers is pretty shitty.

PurpleReign

Yeah, vanilla doesn't mean shit when you can't pound the rock in vanilla. You saying we need fancy plays to run the ball effectively? Shiiiiiiiit.

Don't call the offense vanilla when it has sucked since Petersen took over.

The entire point of the game plan was to see if Browning can throw an accurate deep ball

PurpleReign

I don't understand what your point is.

PostGameOrangeSlices

Same as ever.

We might suck. We might not

I like to call multiple fly sweeps, tunnel screens, wildcat formations and passes to Lindy "vanilla".

It wasn't vanilla. It was our offense.

Browning's newfound ability to hit the deep ball gives some shred of hope, but our offensive playcalling is just as bad as ever. I'm optimistic because Ross and the defense, but the playcalling is what we thought it was.
