    You misspelled five years

    And it wasn't as good as back to back Rose Bowl wins in 71 and 72

    Where did I read recently that winners run the ball, but running teams don't necessarily win.

    an article on Bret Bielema?

    You hit them hard and you run.

    You hit them hard and you run.

    You hit them hard and you run.

    Even if you go 3 and out, you start to wear down the other team.
    It's not 19tickety2 anymore. 3 yards and a cloud of dust doesn't work. If you think you're going to wear out these guys, that play no huddle teams all year long with 3 and outs, you are mistaken.
    It's not, but you must deal with your limitations. Miley Cyrus has a candy ass arm, & right now is not exactly lights out. I'm not saying you run the ball 95% of the time, but there's nothing wrong with setting up a third and 2 with two okay, effective runs. Your boy Saban never jumped on the spread read option no huddle 40 bubble screens a gayme bandwagon.

    They probably ran like beasts back then too.

    Thanks for making my point.

    Yeah he just spent the last 3 years getting torched by it.

    Paul Johnson maybe?


    Smiff if running enough in a purely numbers sense, but there's so little creativity in getting your best athletes (running Cyler, Ross, Pettis, Shaq) in space/on the edge with the ball. I mean you look at what Auburn is doing--to use just one example--on offense and you just shake your head and start to wonder what the fuck Little Johnny is trying to do out there.

    Peterman's always run really multiple schemes, but with this group of QBs he might have to do like Rick and put in a simplified running offense tailored to his athletes.

    Exactly this. It's really predictable.

    Let me know which one of our QBs can throw like that.

    Until then, I'm keep yelling for us to run it.
