Four things Penn State didn't even try to do.
1) End around after a fake to the tailback up the middle. Gophers bite hard on fakes.
2) Running back screen on third down (Gophers blitz 95% of the time on 3rd down).
3) Throw deep sideline to a tall outside receiver after moving said outside receiver around the formation until he was covered by linebackers.
4) Wheel route.
Anyway, it was a great season, better than almost anybody thought possible. A lot of really good football. If Penn State could somehow acquire an offensive coordinator/offensive identity in the offseason, they could be even better.
