Lately, people who get paid to talk about such things are tossing around the concept of “complementary football” with reckless abandon. For instance, the inability of the Oklahoma Sooners to play it seems to be the biggest criticism of head coach Brent Venables and his staff following their first season at the program’s helm. Venables even alluded to it this week at his spring football press conference.
Thought this was an interesting quote from Venables today: “…we defended the most possessions in all of college football. So we’ve got to be more efficient in getting off the field and then we’ve got to be more efficient, on both sides of the ball, of complimenting each other.
