Conclusion

I didn’t mention the increase in tempo because that’s something that’s been talked about ad nauseum.

However, these are three important facets of the offense that could be the difference in winning or losing a couple of games in Taggart’s first season.

It’s all about execution and efficiency because teams only get the ball on offense a certain amount of times every game.

For instance, let’s say FSU offense gets the ball nine times in the game and scores on five possessions. Let’s say they score two touchdowns and settle for three field goals for a total of 23 points(assuming extra points are made).

That’s scoring on 55.5 percent of their drives.

Then let’s say they get the ball nine times the next game and score touchdowns on four of those possessions for a total of 28 points(assuming extra points are made). That’s scoring on 44.4 percent of their drives.

I’m no math wizard but 28 points scored will win a lot more than 23 points scored in a game.
