Message: [QUOTE="timkay99, post: 64156, member: 635"] You say all this now b/c the pass didn't work. It truly is that simple. And if Syracuse ran on 1st and 2nd down, then there would be questions on why Syracuse did it. Why not pass after the defense just done chasing Graham all over the field? Because your "success" with the run was carrying 3 times for 11 yards. That is just over 3 yards a carry. Your success with the pass was 2 times for 13 yards. That is 6.5 per completion. Still not good, but doubles the run yards. See what I am getting at? This is all hindsight. You judge the plays not based on what they are called and there overall significance to the game plan, but rather by the result. Also, without an indication of whether there was a breakdown on the play or, as what happened a lot in this game, execution wasn't there. [/QUOTE]
