John Jancek says "hold my beer".

I'd put jancek above as far as DC goes. He didn't have as much talent to work with and still used scheme to overcome and have success.

With our DL, it would be impossible for any DC to look bad. But I didn't see a lot of creativity and out scheming our opponents this year. He simply had better players at the most important position. Doesn't make him a bad DC, but to say he's the best simply because the results were the best isn't digging far enough into the issue.

I'm just pointing out the observation that the offense is very simplistic.

I'm now questioning how much you ever watched the offense 😉

It's always been simple, that's why it works. Simplicity is one of the 5 tenets of elite college football offenses.

The ability to plug-and-play is critical when players are constantly changing teams...at best are around 3-4 years, have class and a million other obligations, and are rarely a professional student of the game like a pro would be.

The only other route is elite talent everywhere. Since we can't get there, having a do more with less scheme is the optimal route. And here we are averaging 10 wins a season. We were literally the only playoff team with a freshman QB 😅🤣

Patience young grasshopper.

Had we gotten PSU's draw we'd all be slurping orange Kool aid right now. Let the Oregon game provide the context we need for true perspective. We have needed to upgrade on some players and some coaches, but finding better options is not a slam dunk. The Fulmer debacle should prove that.

This x 1000.

The rollercoaster ride of emotions from the fragiles has been exhausting. It was all over after Arky...then Bama and we're kings...then UGA and we'll never win a big game...then we get the job done vs Vandy, cap off a great season...and they just let a bad game vs an elite team...on the road...at night...in 15 degree weather (good lawd all the factors going against us 😒) and they're back jumping like lemurs.

Literally give us ANY other draw and we'd be just fine rn, if not downright giddy.
