Check out the ytd statistics. They are stunning. 12 more minutes per game of possession time. Over 100 more offensive plays ytd than the opposition. One turnover and 11 takeaways. 9 TD passes and 0 interceptions.
I'm an old timer with a good memory. Our undefeated teams of the 1960s were made by great defenses and possessing the ball.
I don't see the caution lights that others do.
Fewer long runs and passes are not a problem. Last year, with Clifford, defenses had to defend 3 backs who could run on every play. Neither TE is as effective a blocker as Strange was. We have done an effective job of taking advantage of what the defense gives us to defeat our long gains. Drew's 2nd pass of the year was a 72 yard TD. When you have a big gun like Drew the long pass is going to come.
I think we beat at least one of OSU & UM and go to the B1G championship and win it. If we lose one game, the sports media has already proven more than willing to SCREW us. We must beat them both to get to the NC series.
I see green lights, not red ones.
