In the early stages of Bob Stups' career, he always appeared in the coaching team as an assistant, studying hard in obscurity until he entered Bill Schneider and Mo Latimer that he gradually won the opportunity to show himself. These two senior coaches at Kansas State University can be said to be Stups' mentors and friends.

In 2000 and 2003, Stups won the NCAA National Coach of the Year twice, which was better than the top.

Overall, Stups' coaching style continues the characteristics of Schneider and Latimer, focusing on physical talent, basic formation, etc., and the overall tactical layout is still relatively retro; but he still developed his own style, especially in offensive tactics. Different attempts in passing lines have allowed the University of Oklahoma to raise the upper limit, instead of a team that can only rely on defense to win, opening a new dynasty.

However, Stups' philosophy still emphasizes defense more than offense because he is essentially a defensive coach. However, this season, the University of Oklahoma has shown strong firepower on the offensive end, second only to the University of Missouri, Kansas State University, and Kansas University.

The final reason is that the University of Oklahoma has attracted a group of talented offensive players—

For coaches like Stups and Latimer, there is also a bit of "God's reward for food", because their tactics rely more on the talent of the players. If a group of strong offensive players appear in freshmen, the offense will be better; on the contrary, if they are defensive players, the defense will be more exciting.

The University of Oklahoma in the 2007 season was a year when the offensive outbreak occurred.

At the quarterback position, Sam Bradford became the starter at the University of Oklahoma. In fact, Bradford was a freshman last year, but because his physical condition did not meet the confrontation standards, he became a red shirt player for a year and officially became the starter this year.

This is a quarterback with strong passing ability, a 2008 Heisman Award winner, 2010 draft No. 1 pick, was selected by the St. Louis Rams. He became the starting quarterback in his first season and the offensive rookie of the year of that year. He is indeed outstanding in his ability.

Unfortunately, injuries have become a roadblock, and the whole career has been in a state of stopping and stopping, and it is impossible to ensure playing time and form. After ending the Rams' player status in 2014, they have been wandering around in the Philadelphia Hawks, Minnesota Vikings, and Arizona Cardinals, but the situation is exactly the same every time:

The team believed in Bradford's passing ability, and Bradford did have the ability, so the two sides signed a good contract, but their condition was affected by intermittent major and minor injuries. They were either reimbursed for the season or fluctuated their condition and returned to the bench and were eventually traded again.

Many people in the industry joke that Bradford is a "salary robber".

In addition, running back Deurray, later the star player of the Dallas Cowboys, three-time Pro Bowl starting running back, and the offensive player of the year in 2014; wide receivers Manuel Johnson, Malcolm Kelly, Brandon Caleb, and Ryan Broyles all entered the professional league.

The same is true for the offensive front line. A series of players such as Jon Cooper, Donald Stephenson and Chase Beeler, although they are all blue-collar workers who do not have much fame, they have indeed entered the professional league.

What's more, they also have a future superstar player like Trent Williams. They were selected by Washington Redskin in the fourth pick in the first round in 2010. It was shocking for the offensive tackle position - of course, Washington Redskin always made a big splash in the draft, and people have become accustomed to it, but Trent Williams has created the era here:

Since 2012, he has been selected for the Pro Bowl for seven consecutive years. Until Lu Yiqi's familiar memory, he is still the starting offensive tackle of Washington Redskin.

Obviously, the offensive team players at the University of Oklahoma in 2007 exploded. Even if Stups' expertise is not offensive tactics and relying solely on talent to play, their foundation and strength are enough to win in the NCAA arena. This is an absolutely strong team.

In all aspects, the University of Oklahoma and Kansas State University have formed a tit-for-tat trend!

Lu Yiqi, who is familiar with the future, knows better than anyone else the strong talent of this team's lineup. He has "Big Sam" in passing, "Dermark" in running, and Trent Williams in the offensive line. Although they are all "freshmen" and are not very famous yet, their talent and a wide receiver group that is enough to enter the professional league level, an offensive team with superb strength has completed the combination.

Even if it is placed in the NFL, with the right coach and the right tactics, this offensive team will have a try.

But it is precisely because of this that Lu Yiqi understood that Stups had not been able to fully utilize the advantages of this offensive team: in the final analysis, he is still a defensive coach. On the offensive end, tactical changes lack imagination and completely use players' talent to conquer the world. Once the players' state fluctuates or the opponent's tactics work, then the University of Oklahoma is not invincible.

The only problem may be that the NCAA field does not have much time and space to study tactics carefully, so this gives Stups enough room to play - the best proof is that Stups has never entered the NFL as a coach and has spent his entire life coaching in the NCAA field.

This season, the University of Oklahoma lost to the University of Colorado and Texas Tech in both games:

The defensive end cannot effectively curb the opponent, and must rely on the offensive end to burst out energy at critical moments. However, Bradford and Murray, who are still immature, cannot clarify their ideas. The tactics are a little confused, so they cannot keep up with their opponents and lose the game regretfully.

"24:27", lost to the University of Colorado.

"27:34", lost to Texas Tech University - it was precisely because of this victory that Texas Tech was able to enter the top 25 in the United States.

In other words, the two games are the same: they lose to weak opponents in an upset manner, and the final score difference is within a touchdown; and they are all away games.
