To be honest, I don’t love the “prepared to use his arm” line, because for us to win, we need both his arm and his legs. His running ability is one of those things that makes our offense hum and if it’s obvious to the defense that he is not going to run, that removes a huge dimension of our game. I hope it’s just silly semantics, and I hope I am making something out of nothing…because this is a key to the game, IMO.
Maybe the phrase was used simply to emphasize that his arm is good to go, because that was the concern much more than his legs.

His legs weren’t injured.

I have looked at this game many different ways and keep coming to the conclusion that the 10 point line is a sucker line because Vegas is trying to find a way to draw some money on the Good Guys. That said I don't see this being close. If you are going to wager this one, consider it a "Yay Boo" game. Lay the 10 points and if our boys keep it closer (or win) you can justify that the result was worth the loss.

I am thinking that the U is going to boat race us and look for them to win by 3 TD's

If Philo is what it takes to break the side ways long hand off slog offense, i am for it.

If King or Philon is not allowed to pass downfield the the defenses flood the area.

If we have to pass quickly because same stsrters on ol can't regularly block a 5 second clean pocket, we have a big problem for years to come.

Band lined up. Music guy ready after walk up, players are here. Go Jackets
100% positive.

At tail gate.
Philo / Harping parents are all in for Key and future. Philo love qb room.

Key got a scout team guy an internship as well as helped his friend get scholarship at smaller scholl.

The Key radio show at frat house was big.

If we could we possibly win now?

Rumor protect king go to bowl - win big.

Without even seeing replays-
If they don’t toss that Miami player for the hit on Jamal Haynes, I’m officially a believer of refs siding.

Disgusting use of helmet while Jamal was defenseless.

Edit: yep no targeting called. If the ACC has a lick of respect for their players, people should be jobless tomorrow. Won’t happen though.
