Most of the OL we have left aren’t ever going to run block well in this system. They can learn to pass block in this system. The coaches knew this. Square peg round hole. This isn’t a system vs system debate but more just simply the way it is. We can’t do what we want with those parts and no reason to be mad at those guys or run down the old coach it’s just the way it is.
Honestly, the only person I was upset with was the OC who should've stopped calling said sweep off left tackle. I get that it worked once or twice in the Temple game, but after the second time it blew up against UNC, it was time to take that one out of today's game plan.

Disagree because then you've essentially abandoned the entire run game. Without the sweep plays, the defense stacks the box and dares you to beat them throwing the football, and that's a bad proposition with our current O-line situation what it is. The proverbial Catch-22 from an offensive perspective.

This is very much a positive.

The game wasn’t so out of hand that it could be chalked up to playing against backups. Nice improvement out of halftime.

Still would rather not see 17-0 at home in your first conference home game. And first divisional game. But it is what it is.

The only thing I’m positive about right now is that the season will end
UNC could have put 50 on us today and not broken a sweat
We needed to get something off a) that first turnover and b) the first possession of the second half

There were flashes in the second half, especially the second TD drive
We have some good pieces on offense
I just have zero to little faith in the coaching

The team is getting better and showing flashes. That means coaching is present.
