I think what you meant to say was it is so dadgum obvious

I love watching Brien play. The first couple years here he was a great rebounder for a guard. Great player for Akron. Good luck as a coach. I thought he would find his way on the staff at Illinois. If his shot does not rim out at the MAC final, Ohio U does not go to the NCAA. No sweet 16 run for John Groce No job at Illinois with a large salary. Amazing how one bounce of a ball can change a lot of things.

You're right, I forgot about bonus points. It's ridiculous that the RPI system is not transparent, and also differs from sport to sport, for no particular reason.

Here's a pretty decent preview on Hustlebelt.

As long as the Defense stops them...a lot more 3 and outs, and Zips improve their 3rd down conversions, they will be able to control the game and in the position of winning. But, they have to score at least 3 TD's, or 2 TD's and a couple FG's to win comfortably. Message from #13 of the past, to #13 of today...relax and keep those DB's "third" guessing. Go Zips!!

If you put a rb and a te in the slot with two wr, you have 21 with 4 wide. A common formation to try to get mismatches. The Browns run a 21 personnel with 5 wide on the Duke Johnson TD pass on Sunday. Both RB's lined up outside. Great designed play. Two LB's were covering both RBs. Think personnel, not formations. Before Hernandez went to jail, the Patriots used to run 12 with 4 wide (2 WR with Gronk and Hernandez). The could run hurry up, and pack it back in and pound the ball with the same personnel package. If you tried to substitute, they would spread em back out. Personnel chart for reference. I've recommended this book before, but I'll do it again. It really helps you take labels off of an offense and realize what a team is trying to accomplish. While I'm recommending stuff, Bernie Kosar has a show called 'Sports Zone', I love it. I wish he spent more time breaking down plays because he is a football genius, but it's awesome for those who appreciate his personality like I do too.

1. We'll (hopefully) win. 2. I hope we run it down their throats with Tommy and Conor/Donnell and complete 11-16 play action passes thanks to setting up the run. 3. If the Zips can stop running backs Darius Jackson and Eddie Daugherty, there's no way they get more than one touchdown.

Rowdy.... If we do get 170 rushing yards out of Hundley, and 60 out of Woodson, and another 175 in the air.......I can GUARANTEE you that we will score more than 17 points
