46-41?! Wow, not exactly a defensive struggle, eh?

The 46 was based on scoring system that awarded defensive plays.

Huh?

The defense got points for things like 3 & outs, INTs, sacks, etc. The offense got points for big plays in addition to other things.

Huh?

It was offense against defense.

The defense scored by accomplishing various things, like 3 and outs and collecting turnovers.

The defense won (actually on that last pick thrown by POB).

So they gave the D points for doing those things? I guess it's the "participation" ethos bleeding thru the college game, hmm, weird, and whatev.... Did everyone get a blue ribbon @ game's end?

It's a fairly standard way to run scoring in a scrimmage. I played in a couple of spring games that used it. It's more effienent, in a lot of ways, than a "real game" scoring approach.

The scoring that was done is pretty typical in offense vs. defense setting. They didn't want to have to worry about splitting the roster up into 2 teams, so they just went with an offense vs. defense setting.

I think this should translate into real games, like when we play Oregon, if we, for e.g, get a 3 and out, we get 6 points and the ball. Ok, maybe 3 and out is too much to ask, how about a 6 and out? Tackle for loss is 3 points for us. INT is 7 points and you don't even have to run it back to the endzone, just down it. I like these new rules.

Great want-to run by Bush here (needs some better ball security but the effort was great):

Question about the depth chart for the Spring game.

I know, that at this point, the depth chart doesn't mean much.

However, would it be safe to assume that if a player is on the field (especially at the beginning of the game) with Fyfe that they would be the second string?
