What was surprising to me (perhaps not to people back East) is that Richmond completely shut down our running game. That's been our calling card all year. That left us to rely on an interception machine at quarterback. Our OL has GOT to do better against Incarnate Word. I'm sure play-calling has something to do with that, too. Call some runs, back those up with play action, follow up with some dropback followed by draws, and sprinkle in some judicious screens (not those bogus WR screens that seem to do nothing but get blown up at the line, but RB and TE screens).

I wanted to argue with you about your Valpo conclusion...but I find that I can't. There's been talk of 5-7 Rice getting a bowl bid, and if THAT's the case, then we really can't argue with a team that got six, right?

SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

In addition to your point, I also called it undeserved because this Valpo game only came about because NMSU's game with San Jose was canceled. I really don't think NMSU would've beaten SJSU.

Taylor is like Baldwin. He scouted something to exploit and was willing to ride the horse as long as it took or regardless of turnovers.

I swear Baldwin and Taylor trailed at half in 50% of the games they called at EWU.
