Funny thing about the RnS is that it's easy for defenses to read it, but really difficult for our offense to run.

Shouldn't it be the other way around?

My husband watched and was telling me what happened at the end. Why in the world would he kick a FG on 4th down rather than trying to make a TD. Even if their defense held us, they would get the ball on the 2 yard line. JJ, you should be ashamed of yourself!

Why have shame when you can have $2 million in the bank?

i thought going for the field goal was a great call. Puts you up 6, so an anemic tulane offense has to drive down the field, score 7 points, then not have the PAT blocked by Margus. I feel it was a great call, but i still think GG needs to go as well as JJ.

But but it can't be the offense since it last worked 5 years ago at Hawaii.

Total BS...the Tulane D line was reeling and gassed out and Zach was rolling...just like a fight...you finish them off when they are ready, and they were ready. They had no time outs and 69 yards to go to FG range if they held....a total gutless move.
