Wake Forest Football Offseason Discussion

I would like to see us run the ball almost exclusively. Win 30 - 0 and throw 5 passes. No injuries.
 
We should just run vanilla stuff with our backups. Still pass the ball and try to get first downs, but nothing crazy.

I would hope that we would do just this. No need to be our own Wakeyleakers just to embarrass the Blue Hose. Let Newman be the only QB to throw a pass, and go Grobe style old school with 300 yds rushing.

Strongly disagree. This offense can't even run it up in scrimmages. They need every confidence booster possible. Drop 70 and then back down.

Wofford and crew went "ham" for about 20 mins in a bowl game against Temple and that's far and away the biggest offensive achievement of the Clawson era. Run it up and gain some confidence. Sitting on your hands and winning 27-3 only plays in to the self-fulfilling narrative that this offense is going to be flaccid.

You agree with me. You disagree with something I didn't say.
 
I can only imagine the armchair quarterbacking that would occur if Carney or a QB got hurt with Wake up 56-0 in the 3rd quarter that caused them to miss the BC game.

Most LOWF comment ever. Grow a dick doofus.

(None of our RBs are that special and we all know that Claw is going to start Johnny-Try Hard due to the "pleasantly surprised" narrative being pushed by Wake and their shills (that's you), so I won't be mad when Hinton takes his snaps.
 
Brasky, Your faith in our offense is based on 20 minutes in the bowl game? Why didn't we keep it going in the second half of the bowl game? Wasn't the 1-5 finish and the second half versus Temple a return to Clawson's norm of the previous seasons? DC has to "ham" it this year. It's what is expected. We'll find out at 1:10 pm on the 9th on Chestnut Hill, when we play a good defense. BillBrasky, do you have confidence in Ruggerio?

Umm, I'm 180 degrees away from your interpretation (of my possibly vague) post. Wofford and his broken play preying offense is shit, minus the first 20 mins of a D level bowl game. If we depend on that this season we'll win 3 games.

I agree totally. Let's hope for improvement and beating the snot out of BC.
 
Doesn't sound like we ran the ball well. Hopefully more of a dood sign for our rushing D
 
Well our DL should be good.
