Stallion-
Why oh Why do you do a 4th and 1 out of the Shotgun?? Why not put a lead blocker in?? You cannot get a burst of speed on a handoff out of the shotgun-No Way No how. That is Coaching not DeMyron

Why should we change now - running short yardage out of the shotgun hasn't worked for 3 years - Isn't the off season the time to come up with a new solution to an old problem. We runn the same thing with the same personnel for two years and failed. Coaches get paid to address that. Bennett said we would not come up one yard short this year. This year we have come up short more times than I can remember on all sorts of short yardage situations.

perhaps so, but a coach should give his team the best opportunity to win. Forcing tulsa into requiring a touchdown would have changed their play calling, our play calling, and hopefully the outcome.
There were a few other key decisions that got us to that point, but kick the the FG, regroup, and play some D
