a very rational or effective way to manage an offense. You won't have much of a playbook left in November if that's your philosophy.

He’s gotta be hurt

KYU

He’s hurt so we don’t give him redzone touches? And injured players can play

Ok, bummer. Put in Moa who’s been an absolute beast. Or Ropati for that matter

I've been saying that since UCF. Seems like he's on a pitch count

It's what the defense was giving them. Just gotta go with it. The defense has only given the offense 3 opportunities

How many total plays inside the 10 did we run the last two games?

That's what I don't know but I can think of one game altering situation vs KU

Gunga Galunga

Sample size is pretty important.

shoganai

7:54am

Throwing a fade on 1st & goal from the 5 for an INT does limit the amount of potential plays.

foofcoug

8:12am

Throwing an interception does. The route, itself, isn't really material.

shoganai

8:18am

The fact that an INT was thrown on the same route for a 2 point conversion the previous week means that it should not

I think you're pretty much just making stuff up now.

Retzlaff hit Keanu Hill on that same play against SMU. I don’t recall you being outraged so maybe you missed that game.

Uh, yes. The matchup was there and the play has been successful in the past. Jake has shown that he can make that

Ok by your standards...he has made that throw one time for a TD against

Yes, I'm in favor of running successful plays until they aren't successful anymore.

I don't think the call was the issue (although i would have preferred we ran it on that down). The execution was poor.

Another reason why you don't call that play...you are going against a 4 year

A different decision by the QB results in a TD. For an offense to be successful

That’s part of what made me so mad. Run it if you don’t get in you get a field goal before

He’s been back for two games and gotten 2 carries both for over 10 yds a carry

Patterns of Arod's idiocy. He needs to go, should have been gone years ago.
