UK can’t compete consistently with the top 1/2 of the SEC by playing like they do, because we don’t get the players they do. So here is what I would do if I were coach on offense;
1. Pay and go after the best O and D lineman you can find. Pay them as well if not better than other top SEC schools.
2. Recruit athletic QB’s who if they went to Alabama or Georgia would not play QB but will play QB for us.
3. Run an option/short passing/trapping with the occasional long ball offense. Make the other teams D have to account for our QB’s legs.
4. Play fast
5. Recruit big strong good blocking receivers who may not be super fast but can post people up when needed.
We can’t out play other SEC teams by doing what they do. We never will be able to. We have to play and think differently.
