We were cruising through the motions, and when FINALLY, we came to, we fought back, only to not fight back enough. The Recievers need someone in practice to stand ten feet from them and fire balls at them, R=Each one dropeed is a 100yarder sprint. THEN after a few of those, Maybe just maybe they will catch some easily thrown balls. Next Pj. Needs to throw all practice at a swinging tire while he is under pressure. Each one he misses he needs to run. Rod needs to find the book, OC'ing for Dummies. Read the chapter on don't be predictable. Question? Are his spotters blind or is it that he couldn't see that the outside run WAS working for us AND Andre? Sweeps, guard pulls, tight end block downs, screen passes, Power I formation where was it? Hell, Armwood would have beaten us with that O game. Forget the tricks, go with what works Rod. This is how success is made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt see any screens either...that was disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are going to put 9 in the box, find another way to get the ball in your playmakers hands! A simple screen pass would have accomplished that. Pass it out to him, let him make some people miss, pick up some blockers, there you go, TOUCHDOWN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One that gained like nine yards and the other was incomplete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We want our representative ranked as high as possible at the end of the year to keep our BCS bid secure in the coming years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their health will be most important. It will be great to beat #12 at home but how would this be for fustrating?: We destroy #9 Louisville, and beat #12 West Va. but lose to Pittsburgh and UConn? Ahhh, what could have been! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
