Smith as O.C. equals no playoff, ever.

Cook it. The guy has been given every chance to succeed, but failed. The offensive showing last night was absolutely anemic, on the order of a Cyler Miles led effort.
I have zero faith in Smith as OC, based entirely upon the evidence in the record. He does not, and apparently cannot, call a proper, good game against the top Pac 12 defenses. Last night's game plan was guaranteed to lose, by Smith calling multiple, low percentage plays his players have had great difficulty in executing all season long.
He knows his QB is deadly up to 30 yards, so he calls multiple 40 yard bombs to receivers who have to slow down or stop, waiting for the fluttering ball, only so they can engage in a jump ball contest against a very talented, athletic SC secondary.
People blame players for not executing, but who's fault is it when an OC calls plays his players can't execute?
It's a very simple reality test: Can you succeed in getting the most out of the players you have? Or do you dream of success with the players you wish you had? Smith seems stuck in the latter, calling risky, low percentage plays against a bona-fide SC defense who came ready to play.
Grade F, even after a season of Tedford tutelage. And the rest of the Pac 12 knows it.
If CP doesn't fire Smith at the end of the season, well, don't bank on 2017 being anything special, as other teams are on the March too, and will go right past us if we don't jettison Smith's dead weight, and soon.

Chincredibled if you actually did dial that in to the Honks!!!
You guys act like we have a bunch of Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Grahams on this team.
You guys were praising the TEs about a week ago for their blocking job.
People talk about "rhythm" and last night there was zero chance of getting any with a completely UNBALANCED attack, especially in the 2nd half. SC dared UW to throw at them, and instead of the OC calling run plays to keep them honest or punish the shit out of them, he just kept leading Browning into the teeth of the defense, cheating back to defend the passing game. Shit, shit, Double-shit Show.
