At the scrimmage, did the run our favorite play during field goals?

No......but it is certainly in the Rusty Burns playbook - perhaps that is why Bennett put the big tarp all around the practice field.....he wants it to be a suprise this year! :twisted:

1. It's BURNS, not Burnes

2. Coach Burns doesn't do the extra point team

3. Coach Burns has coached very productive offenses as his players have matured within his system. Last year, our offense got a lot more productive, and there's no reason to believe that production won't continue to improve this year.

4. This horse is beyond dead. Stop beating on it.

Except for when we needed to go 3 feet in at least 3 tries... twice. Then it was probably the least productive offense I've ever seen. You don't start the RB 5 yards behind the line when you are on the 1. You don't try and run around the outside when you are on the 1 without some sort of trickery.

That was precisely my thoughts. Statue of Liberty play worked like a charm.
