In 2011, when Brandon Doman succeeded Anae, sophomore QB Jake Heaps and the Cougars posted 316 yards and seven offensive points in a 14-13 win at Ole Miss.
And when Anae returned two years later with his fast-tempo approach, Hill's offense was held to 363 yards in a 19-16 loss at Virginia. Those initial efforts of Anae (twice) and Doman as coordinators resulted in averages of 338.6 yards and a total of three offensive touchdowns.
The Cougars responded with 40 points the next week vs. Texas in 2013, but then scored only 13 against Utah. So with a 2016 schedule of Pac-12 members Arizona, Utah and UCLA in the first three games, the Cougars will be tested.
