all we have to do to fix the run game is stop letting a defensive end come free and add a fullback.

there's a reason Notre Dame doesn't run that **** anymore.

You have to make that DE pay for cheating inside by reading him and pulling the ball when he does. Trask isn’t doing that - yet.

Remember when Leak ripped off that huge run against Bama in 2006? That sort of play should show up against AU. And not just by EJ, when it’s expected.

Telegraphing running plays when EJ is in there has the reverse opportunity to surprise with a key pass.

Make him pay?
Or the DE tracks him down from behind and rips his ankle off, like Brantley. (Though I think Brantley was scrambling.)

Just block the damn linemen. Run a conventional offense, like we finally did with Leak after doing the square peg round hole thing for a year or so.
