I hope Bo lets the guys score as much as they can. I hate it when like last week in the final seconds of the game, they were ready to score and they took a knee! What is up with that! Let them score-let 'em score-let 'em score!!
It's called class. And in all fairness, we were trying to score and then Marrow fumbled on the 1 yd-line. That's a guy that has been less than impressive so far.
Is it though? I think playing a good fair football game shows just as much respect as not scoring because you don't want to be thought of as a coach that 'runs up the score.' Look at our game today. We were just the better team and we scored-a lot. So did we show less class because we scored so much?
My favorite quote regarding scoring a lot of points was in the 84 point drubbing we put on Minnesota. The press asked Lou Holtz if he was angry at TO for running up the score. Lou got pissed and said something like "Listen here...it is not Tom Osborne's job to keep his team from scoring..it is ours!"
