is that all we are now? if we want to slow FSU down we need to run plays that make them think. More real motion not just RB going to empty backfield. more jet sweep fakes, fake reverses, double screens. Better play action and the oline needs some push.

I still wonder why we dont use Moore like we used Rob Konrad, put Moore in with one of the other TB. then you can run them into the hback spot if you want or use Moore as a lead blocker.

If we had any kind of I game plan this would be the game. power with toss sweep, counter trey, scissor plays.

if you're goal is to spread defenders all over the field to get them away from the guy with the ball, you don't want to put another guy in the backfield. i don't care if it's done here or there to confuse a defense not expecting it. three guys in the backfield doesn't stretch the defense. makes it easier to tell what the defense wants to do, makes it easier for you QB to identify mismatches if there are any. this is just dennis erickson single back stuff, it's not even really spread related

we run the spread to see where the defense is cheating but mcf***it was so dumb, he still went where the defense cheated
