Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 51310, member: 837"] Yeah, I will participate in any thread on this board singing the praises of this defense. I think the statistical regression has people missing a huge story with this defense, which has held it's own despite huge odds (youth, inexperience, lack of size, injury). I think the beauty of the WVU plan -- not that I can verify this -- but I think Shafer gambled that Skullet wouldn't want to be patient. He wants big chunks and tons of points. If WVU simply runs the ball -- any running play -- they at least make us change what we're doing. It's easy to look at 24 rushes for 70 yards and miss that WVU's two backs carried 20 times for 102 and a TD. They just simply didn't want to run the ball that much. Same issue ND has with Brian Kelly from time to time. [/QUOTE]
