4th and 1 is a great opportunity for a big play...if you have any qb other than a true freshman in his first game in two years you throw, zone read, wide option, PA to TE and you have a huge gain. CU was smart...they planned for vanilla play calls in tense situations and they were right...even the pick occurred because their LB was prepared to bait Adrian on the most vanilla and simple pass play in the play book. I think the early fumbles really bothered frost and he was pretty vanilla the rest of the game, didn't want the turnovers to start to snowball...the worst nightmare for a coach is to see new players lose confidence in front of 91k...all of our turnovers happened because of that newness for Bell and Martinez.

I’m betting our offense is pretty vanilla as it is. I can’t seem to find it but there was an artice I read where they said their first season at UCF they spent time running some basic stuff like inside zone, etc. and in the second season they started to open things up. I’d have to assume that it’s much of the same here.
