Message: [QUOTE="TigerTown, post: 1171947, member: 3598"] Recruit a Gurley :-) To that end...if your OL is up to it, run right at us. Shorten the game, give yourself fewer chances for negative plays. Not saying you can't/don't throw it; but I don't think in any way counting on a frosh QB to perform well enough against our front is a winning plan. But 3rd and 5 is a lot more doable than 3rd and 13. I think you need to run some play action to hold the safeties, or even possibly get them out of position. You did this last year. Rolling out, even w/ a mobile QB, isn't going to work. Rollouts are great, but you literally cut the field in half...and even if a safety makes a mistake - well, half the field is gone anyway. Our offense isn't going to light up the scoreboard, it's just not right now. Keep it close, don't take negative plays and make them kill you...give yourself a punchers chance in 2nd half. [/QUOTE]
