[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 119182, member: 265"] I just sent a post to a friend of mine about the game. He's a big fan of the Good Dogs and knows that I pull for them right after I pull for Tech. He was surprised at our success running the ball. Here's what I told him: "I thought we'd have good success running. MSU doesn't have anyone left on D with experience going against the TO like Tech runs it. That usually leads to difficulties. Turning the ball over didn't help them either." Before the game I said that I thought one of two things would happen. Either a) the MSU D would revert to season form and fly to the ball like FSU did in the first half with pretty much the same results or b) they would be so concerned about being cut that they would lay back like the Dwags did. Luckily, it was b and the same thing happened: we drove them 3 - 5 yards off the LOS regularly. Now that they've seen what happens with that, they'll be a lot harder to block next time. It's one thing to get what you should be doing on D against us [I]conceptually[/I]; you have to play assignment football, just like the cliche has it. It's quite another to face the thing run at ramming speed. Only game experience will help you with that. [/QUOTE]
