After years of running the ball as often as possible, the Jackets finally had a game where the run/pass ratio was a perfect 50/50. Tech also threw for more yards than the Owls, 174 yards passing for Tech to 127 yards passing for Temple. Unfortunately, two turnovers in the end-zone as well as one when the Jackets were driving torpedoed their chances for winning this game. The Jackets also struggled on third down, converting only 2 out of 14 chances. There were some interesting new wrinkles that the Jackets showed as well as some positive takeaways.
Run Game
The Jackets ran many of the same plays we have seen this season; Triple out of gun split, Inverted Veer, as well as some split zone.
