Anemia

lacking power, vigor, vitality, or colorfulness; listless; weak.
Did anyone else think this described BYU's play calling against Texas? How often did Texas change up their play calling until they found out what worked? Why did BYU not continue to throw to its receivers and tight ends in the second half? how many times do you run a designed pass play to your running back that loses yards? How many red zone attempts does it take to make a touchdown?
These were just some of the questions I had after the game. Maybe BYU should call up Anae and see if he wants his old job back.

doman does the same thing anae did, in that once you get ahead by more than a field goal, its time to try to run out the clock whether its in the fourth quarter or first.

Lets just say I had to leave the house because I was so mad. They were awesome the first half and then just stopped playing. I'm deciding if I want to watch again.

Okay, let's not throw in the towel yet - even though the obervations are correct. Hopefully he will learn that the ball has to occasionally fly beyond the five yard mark to back the defense up. However, the offense was markedly better than at Mississipi, so thinks will hopefully improve. As a 1st year offensive coordinator there are bound to be mistakes. As for the analysis - I couldn't agree more. It seemed like they took the ball out of Heaps' hands after that interseption lat in the first half and never let him throw it again. Hey, at least Riley Nelson got in on a few plays. Is this the longest comment ever?
