I understand that the main purpose in moving to a more "uptempo" offense this year is to get off more plays. I wonder, if in this particular game it is the best strategy. It will be an interesting chess match on Saturday. We have always had a potent running game. We have some terrific running backs and depth. It seems to me a ground attack that eats up the clock and keeps Matt Davis off the field could bode well. It also would give our defense more rest and make adjustments since they haven't yet played a real game and been in real game situations. If we get our offense going and can run the ball, I have no problem with a long drive that burns an entire quarter up leaving Davis on the sidelines. Now of course, if we were to fall behind, the uptempo would be a good strategy and could serve us well giving us more plays and opportunities to score and catch up. It just seems to me that using the uptempo has a place, I just wonder if it is in our best interests in this particular game.
