If you were the OC, where would you go from here?

The staff clearly does not trust Bryce in the downfield passing game, and, for the sake of this exercise, let’s assume that that is justified. The running game hasn’t worked, other than the designed runs for Bryce, and we’re kind of maxed out on that (yesterday, at least). Nobody understands why the TEs don’t play, so maybe that’s one possible fix: play them. I saw someone mention the pistol below. Try that? I really, really didn’t like the way we attempted to run the ball yesterday. What else?

Another thing: it’s possible that we miss Max Bredeson much, much more than we all thought we would.

- Weren't we playing what most consider this year's best Defense? I think he gets a pass for this week. But id love to see the Harbaugh running scheme come back. It was excellent and much better than whatever we are trying* - By Supergoat September 13, 2026 at 01:46:02 PM
- Resign. Seriously though, it is not justified. The drives that moved the ball yesterday included downfield passing. - By Rich September 13, 2026 at 01:41:02 PM

  - This. Mostly rep the Oklahoma plan, but integrate what worked well with the new stuff. We have a body bag next week. We need to rep and execute.* - By Bluebuck September 13, 2026 at 01:39:57 PM
    - My hope is it is the equivalent of the Hawaii game with JJ. Get our guys loose, confident and even a bit cocky against a body bag, try out some deeper drops and things* - By Daytripper September 13, 2026 at 01:41:14 PM
