If Teams Are Selling out to Stop OSU’s Run Game, Why Not Pass More?

Look at these two quotes from the two Mikes (G. and Y.) after the Central Arkansas game. The head ball coach first.

“They were in a defense that was focused on stopping the run. In the end, we threw the ball down the field with the style of defense we were seeing.”

And now the playcaller.

“Our balance and run/pass ratio was good, but we’ve got to be more effective in the run game by getting more yards per carry and making sure we’re in second-and-normal downs.”

Gundy says UCA was focused on stopping the run (and I believe he said the same about Central Michigan even though I can’t for the life of me find the quote).
