Yes I think Lake is making the classic mistake of "what is hardest for me to defend against = what kind of offense we need" when what he doesn't realize is that he's not building an offense to beat his defense, he's building an offense to beat Pac12 defenses and Pac12 defenses aren't near as good as defending the pass as his defense.TL;DR: *Gurgle*
Jimmy is a little smarter then you idiots. They aren't rolling out a power run scheme every week. He hates offenses that target his defenses weakness. The offense is going to attack each teams weakness.Complete opposite of Petersen's "who cares who we play, we are just going to do what we do best."

Ngta and Gee Jr may never do anything at Clemson and tOSU eitherEvery year there is a fresh crop of 6 foot 4 guys that run a 4.4.

Even look at Oregon last year, Cristobal just kept handing it off when Herbert was trying to throw the game away.Bama, tOSU, Penn St., Stanford, Oregon...They all could run power when they wanted to and play keep away if need be.

If all we can score is 27 points by attacking OSU's weaknesses I have a lot of questions.
To me, it's as simple as this:If Alabama or Ohio State or Clemson East were to pop into Microwave Burrito Stadium to face off against the mighty Oregon State Babushkas, is their offensive philosophy to target OSU's weakness on defense? Or is their philosophy to do whatever the fuck they want because they're that much better? I'm betting Alabama would roll in there and pass for 400 yards rather easily.If I were to pick a fistfight with a crippled eight year old girl, I would wail away in any manner I please. Avoiding her left side because her right hook is weaker would be... pathetic.

If all we can score is 27 points by attacking OSU's weaknesses I have a lot of questions. Consider that three different passes were dropped in the endzone. It's not like Jimmy handed off every play, Ty Jones, and Odunze botched it. So did Bynum on third down, etc..Those miscues do not owe to a "running philosophy." They owe to 4 star WR's fucking up at their jobs.

The others I agree.And again this isn't coincidence and it isn't because running is a superior strategy. It's because our defense is designed to stop the pass. 2 down lineman and 5 DB's in base is highly unusual, and it's been highly effective overall. Jimmy understands innately that the passing game is the most valuable part of the game, that's why he (and K) attempt to take it away (and basically outside of the Penn State and tOSU games, succeed) from other team's offenses first.It's just fascinating that he doesn't carry that same mindset to the offensive side of the ball.

They owe to 4 star WR's fucking up at their jobs. We ran 51 times and threw 24 (and those numbers aren't skewed by sacks as there weren't any). And it's not like we had a huge lead and were sitting on the ball to kill clock half the game either. The game plan was to run twice as much as we passed. We won, so it worked, I guess.But running like you're 1990s Nebraska without the benefit of an option QB wasn't anything that should inspire confidence in anyone.
In this shit conference, the pure virtue of coming in and being legitimately physical (e.g. what Cristobal did) immediately puts you in the top 4. Until I see other gameplans I do not understand the apprehension with the offense yet.
