there have been a few things on my mind lately, so I figured I would throw it into a post.

Whats with the lack of "special plays" lately? Now I will admit I haven't seen every second of every game, but I cant think of the last time I saw anything along these lines. No half back passes, reverse passes, so on..... but beyond that I haven't even seen simple stuff like screen passes, shovel passes, or even WR screens. running a couple of screen passes would be a very effective way to prevent people from spying on Taylor with LB's. What about the triple option? I dont remember seeing it this year, and aside from poorly conceived Niles paul version, no wildcat either. Its really strange. I keep thinking they are saving them up for a big game............ that would be Saturday. And if you do run them.... try to run them to reliable people.

Where have our defensive ends been? for a college that has pumped out numerous pro DE's this is also quite strange. i mean the guys the we have now dont look like they could even make the 3 deep on our 90's teams. i'm not expecting everyone to be a tomich or wistrom or carricker or alberts.... but how about a jay moore? or zack potter? or even better someone like chad kelsay. none of them would make a top 10 DE list here, any of them would be a MASSIVE improvement to this team.

 
I'm surprised we haven't ran that speed option out of the shotgun, like we did all the time with Zac last year. Maybe Taylor can't make the pitch, I dunno. Seems to make more since with a running quarterback.
