This post, is some of the dumbest s#!t I read all weak. No offense. 2 Quote Link to comment

One team I knew had their top RBs carry a ball around for almost the entire practice. People punching at it constantly- coaches, trainers, players. If the ball came out everyone on the offense ran- even the coaches. In indys, some have multiple tug and punch out drills, then when in skeleton they have boxing gloves on coaches, punching the ball. Then on air- same thing- fit and freeze more of the same. Even seen the entire D swarm on a ballcarrier during a team fit drill- and they are all trying to get at the ball. Not all teams practice alike, with the same amount of reps, commitment, intensity. THATS why some coaches do better than others- they all aren't carbon copies of each other. Quote Link to comment

I know a team that had their running back carry a ball throughout the day That team was Nebraska The coach was Scott Frost But thanks for your input 10 minutes ago, lo country said: Throw a ton of INT's and lead the nation in fumbles.....

Don't be "that poster". 2 Quote Link to comment

This game shouldn't be the defining moment win or lose. Of course some fans won't see it that way. A win at this point would actually provide some positive definition. Quote Link to comment
