It's mind boggling that DR kept going back to it again and again and again. I think you're gonna have to get used to that though. He's a bullheaded playcaller who either doesn't like or doesn't know how to deviate from his game plan.

Dickrod's insistence on running the same plays over and over remind me of what Coop did during the end of the MSU loss (of the decade). IIRC he continued to run the ball up the middle hoping that the spirit of WWH would somehow create an opening through which the tailback could run.

That was a painful thing to watch. Thankfully we only had a couple more seasons of that from Coop. The beautiful thing is that they are just getting started up in A^2.

:oh:

Simple answer is no.

He cannot tailor an offense to fit his personnel because he's a one trick pony. That is the big negative with a "scheme" coach in football, once opponents adjust to the scheme the scheme coach is all out of tricks.

Ask Joe Tiller.

At least Tiller is a funny SOB.

I'm not sure about the ALL CAPS presentation, but I really did chuckle a little at your second sentence.

Every great rivalry has down periods. Auburn-'Bama, Texas-OU, Yankees-Red Sox. It's not diminishing it at all.

I do love it when people say that "it's diminishing the rivalry" did them going 10-2-1 against us do anything to "diminish the rivalry?" No, if anything it fueled it, help us hate those scummers even more.

i think he was saying that the fact that not just Ohio State, but everyone else is beating them too, including the Utah's and Ap Sts of the world, is diminishing the rivalry. i mean, is it *really* that much fun to beat the crap out of a bad team, or is it much more satisfying to beat a very good team, no matter how much we think our hearts can't take the stress of watching a nailbiter...?

If that team is tsun, I don't care how we beat them, I will enjoy beating them 21-20 as much as I will beating them 52-0. Fuck Michigan.
