  1. Coaches poll top 10 unchanged, including Wisconsin What week does the "real" poll come out, you know, the only one that matters? after this week I believe
  2. Fyfe can manage this offense if we are running the ball well and running it 60+% of the time. The offense is not going to see a huge drop between Fyfe and a hobbled TA, if anything I think we could be more effective if Fyfe can throw a quick timing pass a little more accurately than TA can, which I don't think is a reach.
  3. Baylor was already ahead of us in the coaches poll
  4. I think we should play our hand all week like he is available and will start of course but I think if Tommy could benefit health wise from not playing I think it is definitely something to consider
  5. If people really think putting Fyfe in will be a sole contributing factor to a bunch of turnovers and a complete meltdown, those people don't know football
  6. If Tommy is indeed still nursing an injury I would say this is worth consideration
  7. The big difference is we can really prove our metal by the end of the season
  8. What is up with that goofy spread punt formation where we leave the huge gaps next to the snapper? Does any other team in the county line up like that? It's the second punt we've had blocked from that formation. It's the only time I screamed at the TV all day. Baffling. Does any HS coach in the country run a spread punt formation backed up to the goal line? We got lucky it only cost us 2. Yes, a lot of teams use that punt formation. We even used it the last couple years of Bo's tenure. Remember the fake punt against UCLA where we had a 300 lb OL running with the ball trying to pick up the first down? I've never liked though. It seems too inviting to block punts with a big rush up the middle. I was hoping that Read would ditch it when the new staff moved over. And you have to have some checks (especially at the goal line) that if they line up X guys over the center you lessen your splits. And if a returner were to break through the first line, you then have 3 fat guys trying to chase him down. I'm fine with the formation if it can be executed properly. Most teams don't rush the punt really and are looking to set up a return. This formation is great when that is the case, but it's also not that difficult to spot that they have a punt block on and shift into a protective formation. Well, unless you're Nebraska

Now as far as teams that do it inside their own 5 that may be a different story
  10. I saw at least 4 screen plays that just did not work due to blocking, timing, or defense sniffing it out
  11. only reason to go is for the burger and fries. Best fast food burger and fries around
  12. We've been running all of the plays people calling for. We are running more than passing. Players aren't executing!
  13. I think the grounding play was supposed to be a screen
  14. he is really bad against the blitz has been all year
  15. We really do the confidence on this team is high right now!
  16. Newby-TD CJ8-TD Looking good on my predictions haha
  17. PICK SIX! Keep it rolling let's make it a blowout!!
  18. Secondary is looking great when they are going one on one with guys
  19. Newby for offensive mvp today Chris Jones on defense
  20. They did mention it actually Did they really? It must have been underneath all of the cackling by Desmond Howard. it was when they were talking about the game at the very beginning and still showing game play they talked about that and how Tommy only had 2 picks and that they thought the coaching was doing well playing to his strengths
