    You should re-read the article then because Baylor is talked about in detail and Oregon is not Baylor ...

    Patterson forces teams to beat him deep as that is low percentage. Every once in a while that works out for the opposition. Baylor actively tries that strategy against TCU

    I read it last night while lying on the our (= my two dads') futon in the basement and was going to poast it but our resident Froog beat me to it.

    Saying that TCU's D sucks or isn't good because they gave up a ton points to Baylor is FS...sometimes great offenses have your number on a particular Saturday, execute better, and / or make less mistakes.

    The article is really good and the guy who wrote is my favorite Grantland guy.

    Whether it's 4-2-5, 3-3-5, or a hybrid 3-4, I love seeing defenses trying to tilt some of the balance back to the D.

    I personally would love for the next Lambo to step up and find out how to shut these shit show offenses down.

    My poont was Tequilla wants Oregon ... handle Baylor first.

    It's such a FS comment that I don't need to take the gloves off and roll ... my froooog minions have taken care of it for me

    Ignoring TCU and the Tequilla baggage that comes with them for a moment, it's a great analysis and I hope our DC Pete K. has been chatting with Patterson in the off-season....almost every team U-Dub faces runs HUNH / spreads.

    I'm glad this year we have a good secondary that has the talent and smarts to execute this sort of read-option D. Whether the pass-rush makes them not having to cover too long is the big question.
