Risk mitigation is tough to learn. At Bama, Sark could keep calling running plays on 3rd and 2 when the defense showed 9 in the box. Bama's road graders could simply clear out and get 4.
I see that misplayed, after the fact, a lot in CFB.  I've seen Smart start running too soon fairly often and put together a bunch of 3aos.  On the other hand, the risk of throwing is clear also.  Let's say you're up 28-6 on a dangerous team in the third and you stop passing.  They score and it's 28-14 and you get another 3ao and they score again and suddenly it's panic time.

Just ask any Auburn or LSU fan about the "Pass LSU Pass!" game and see how they feel about throwing the ball with a lead.  

Incidentally, I believe that was Jamie Howard.....his son, Walker, is a freshman this year and likely the QB of the future.  Maybe we won't let him throw it.  Ever.

Fear the Horns
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Probably for the best.  

I can't believe TCU is 8-3 vs. Texas since joining the B12.

Been wonderin’ where Marcus run off too?  He does this from time to time, being a high powered exec that he is. He’s prolly with Bill Gates on a thinkathon.

I guess I could reach out to see what's up, but that mofo is the same way with texts.  Sometimes I hear right back, other times he just ghosts me.  

Longhorns, man.
