What I still don't understand is why teams think it's smart play calling to run options to the short side of the field. BYU did this time and time again, and there's just not enough room to run option to the short side. I get so frustrated when I watch teams do this.

Most defenses scheme to the wide side. A lot of plays go there and that is usually the strength side of the offense. More defensive players are to the wide side most often. A lot of teams run short side. As for the option last night. The issue wasn't running short side the issue was that Utah was slow-playing the QB, thus stringing out the option. Riley needed to attack downhill versus horizontal, get the option defender to commit, then pitch.

Again, I blame it on Doman's inability to adjust. Keep running the option fine, the numbers were in their favor. But have Dupaix strangle Riley and get him running downhill.
 
As for Bronco's critics, would you say Dungy was a bad coach? They are very similar in their approaches.

I don't mind losing to a team that is better than my team. Hell, I don't mind even losing to a team that gets lucky. But to lose to your own coaching and pure stupidity is un-****ing-acceptable.

How many more games are we going to allow our kicker to lose? Every year you can count on at least one game that comes down to missing an easy FG. Year after year, after year, after year, after year, after year.

And way to smother that fumble, you stupid dumb ****. The first thing they teach you in ****ING GREMLIN FOOTBALL is don't try to pick it up and run, FALL ON IT.

Got to love it when the commentators are openly wondering WHY, OH WHY, BYU keeps trying the same plays over and over and over. PATHETIC.

Cry harder, excuse maker.
 
Too much doing it the right way message. Message should be winning is top priority. Everyone knows sports is not the most important thing ... No need to make it a mantra.

No. Has he ever beat anybody who is considered a "good" team? Since he got there they have been really good at beating bad or average teams. But have they beat anybody of worth?

I dont think bronco is a very good coach and his teams do always choke in the big games (utah, tcu, florida state), but as to the question "has he ever beat anybody who is considered good?"..... he did beat oklahoma in dallas new stadium when oklahoma was ranked like 1 or 2.

Other than that game his teams usually always lose the big games.

They were #3 and Bradford was out for the 4th Qtr I believe. I think Oklahoma finished the season unranked too. I would consider it a quality win though, just nit picking a little.

Yup.

If I worked at a gumball factory I'd try to make the best gumballs I could. I wouldn't feel the need to tell people all the time how unimportant gum balls are. Everyone knows that.

If Coach Whitt felt the need to keep telling me how unimportant football is in the grand scheme of things, I'd feel a bit chastised and talked down to. Just coach the football team and try and win. I'm not looking for life advice, I just want to watch my team win.
