I wonder how much of the disaster against P5 teams of our offense is due to the HUNH? I recall this year one article quoted Lock as saying "we are much faster than last season".
I understand that Heupel is on them constantly after each play in practice to get lined up and snap it.
HUNH works only if it is accompanied by high scoring. If you are scoring often, even if defense isn't too salty often the other team gets out of their comfort zone trying to play catch up. If you are a poor scoring team as Mizzou has been in this speed to snap contest...what is the advantage? ABsolutely nothing.
Making one or two meaningless first downs and running a minute off the clock is a recipe for disaster.
Heupel said he went upstairs to get a better feel for the field. Yet the same fn very few plays ran at breakneck speed with even worse results. Is Lock capable of being in such a hurry to get a play off and doing so effectively? Is Heupel making the best decisions or just throwing something out there in the tiny playbook as quick as he can? The OL doesn't seem real comfortable with it.
We've scored 16 points in 8 quarters WDWWD. Lock is 26 for 60 with 4 interceptions. We were a poor scoring team last year. Is it logical to not take a long look at varying the pace. Fine if want to go quick after a first down. It is an easier decision for OC and might catch em. Many teams do that for a reason. I can't believe that more thought given to innovation and execution than how quick we snap it would not help a badly struggling team.
