Gonna run the ball so dang much. Sigh

Running the ball runs the clock.....which equals less plays. I can't imagine running 75+ unless they get a quick tempo implemented.

Good to hear that there's obviously an emphasis on the backs improving in pass protection. As a group they have been woeful at it for years now - just terrible.

Woeful coaching = woeful results. Hopefully that changes...

Pass protection by RBs was markedly better last year and the true freshmen especially were surprisingly competent (usually that doesn't show up for a year or two).

I thought about that, but he said so the 1s could get a rest, so it isn't just five receiver sets or whatever.

Thanks for posting this bill. It should be mandatory reading for every player on our roster.

Great article! Alex Brown just reminded me why he should be ranked high on our list of Gator Greats.

I was at that game, sitting in the student section, when he sacked T. Martin five times.

One of my all time favorite gator memories.

Greatest defensive performance I have ever seen.

Before somebody jumps in with Wilbur Marshall, I was too young for that.
