BC 111th

bright side, maybe they stink enough that we can throw

down side, it might not matter how bad they are and they're good at stopping the thing we're good at

When almost every pass we throw is geared towards the sideline and behind the line of scrimmage it is like the defense having 13 men on the field.

Which is why MacDonald blows. Just about every time SU threw the ball downfield it resulted in a completion or nearly so. The TD pass, the near-TD to Eskridge, etc. He simply must not be aware of what is going on right in front of him.

Boy...you must be conflicted this week. So what gives, which team you pulling for?

B.C has trouble throwing the ball. We seem to be pretty good against the run.

some of it is by design as our best wide recieivers ( Broyld, Estime, Clark ) are best in space beacuase there are more quick guys than good route runners.

chip's theory - get everyone the hell out of the way so we can run the ball

that goddamn star wars Sarlacc Donald devouring anyone that came within 50 feet of him wrecked that strategy

last year we used Clark to stretch the defense down the field along the sidelines, this year Clark is stretching on the sidelines....big adjustment for a speedster.

BC or SU? Sounds/looks the same to me. Coin-toss Saturday, here we come!
