What are your thoughts about this? They line up, then the entire team looks at the sideline. Indiana ran such a high tempo offense and I thought it was effective at times...just don't like this style of play calling, seems to allow the opponents defense to settle in and get their wind back.
 
I wish we ran tempo a little bit but on a day we struggled mightily, our line hammered with injury. Mcsorely banged up and not a running threat. We score 31 in second half. I can live with the look at us offense, seems to work for Ohio State and many others too.

It is what it is, whether we like it or not they're not going to change it. We seem to be scoring a lot of points and not sticking our defense on the field for most of the game. There are equal amount of things I don't like about hurry up offenses. The only thing I don't like about our offense is running shotgun on 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1.
 
Yeah, I guess there are times to run uptempo and times to not run it. Per my espn app, we had had 409 in total offense. You know what I'm Say Say'ing?!?
 
It beats the days of:

RUN or PASS? OK, we'll run.
Who calls the runs? Well, Galen. OK. Any objections? All in favor say "Aye." OK, the "ayes" have it. Now then...next order of business: What run play shall we call? Galen? Yes? What run play do you want to put in? Oh, are we running? Yes we all decided we should run.

OK, well I think we should run blue 42 right.

"Great. Ok, Mike?" Yeah. "We want to run blue 42 right." "What?"

Yeah, I said we're going to run blue 42 right. Put up the two fingers.

"Who is this?"

****WHISTLE**** Delay of game, offense.
