30 carries is plenty to figure out if you can effectively run the ball against your opponent.
The results this year against P5 competition were below average, particularly when you take into account the talent on the OL.

For those that want a new OL coach, I really doubt that is happening. Funk is all over the recruiting trail right now…

If we keep funk our running production will continue to be an eye sore

I actually think the running backs were a much bigger issue than the OL.

Was it an eyesore this year? Because aside from two games, BYU ran the ball pretty darn effectively…

We were subpar running the ball against P5 competition.

Not really. We averaged 30 carries for 141 yds (4.6 yds/carry) against P5 competition. Not sub-par.

That's because you are throwing in the Stanford game that way skews our numbers higher. Let's talk real numbers

Brooks ran the ball fine, and he only got 10 carries. The offense was not the problem in the Ark game.

I guess you better throw out ND numbers as well, it doesn't fit your narrative

Thanks for sharing the stats that show 2 great performances, an above average

Less than 4 yards/carry against the #104 ranked rushing D is an above average performance. You set the bar really low.

Nothing wrong with those numbers. Baylor and Oregon were just better teams with better DLs.

Definitely pleased! Especially when you include all of the awesome false starts the OL racked up this year.

I'll reply to this again. #1 pass blocking and #23 run blocking OL in the country this past year.

I have very clearly stated there are still concerns on the OL and they aren't perfect. They have been better than most

Our zone running was suspect, looking more at it may have been a RB issue

Was Barrington the starter the past few weeks? Was he playing his natural position here at BYU?

How does the run blocking rank of 25 work? We weren’t in the top 50 in total

Brooks got better as the year progressed. Points to good coaching IMO.
