4th and 1 on the 1.

Pass play call with a walk on? That is so June-ish.

Put pope in the game, make line block and go off tackle.

I think they tried to run on the previous 2 or 3 plays and it did not work. The roll out was not a bad option.

Our best chance was a blocking back off tackle. The option with a walk on was not the best option.

Best chance was whatever worked. No matter what they did, if we did not make it the call would be questioned.

When we ran we were stuffed.

Doesn't mean the odds were better rolling out a walk on QB. Should have run it.

I like a TE but never liked the 2 TE formation. Give me a FB or UB. Prescott Like can block

Exactly. 99 out of 100 teams can score with a TE' blocking back and running back with three tries from the 1.

You do realize we would rank 100 on that list.

Yes. But that doesn't mean you don't play the odds.

My odds say stop me running twice, maybe I should pass.

Your odds are wrong once you figure in our QB and talent t level. Try the run again.

OL talent level trumps QB talent level.

We ran 3 times in a row and were not successful. What makes you think a 4th time with s play that TCU was anticipating would have worked?

Let's get the right coach / staff and administrative support. That's all we need to focus on. Press the issue.
