That’s a nice thought, Moore.
In a second note; public opinion may not influence playcalling or the 11-man makeup on any given play; I think we need to resurrect the three-headed monster hype for Dre’lyn; Elijah and Zylan. Move the machine and make it known.

When you see this offense slice and dice defenses up on the first two drives of the game, scripted plays. You truly see the potential of what can be accomplished. Those plays are meticulously planned out and are designed to compliment and set up future plays. But calling plays from the sideline, while being a HC at the same time is difficult to do.
When you are the more talented, or more experienced team, then there is zero reason to get cute. Make the defense make plays and stop what you are good at. There’s several stretches in each game this year where we have had throw away drives because we went away from what is working.
We have gotten away with it because we are simply better than everyone we’ve played. Even Tulane, wasn’t as good as we are.

We scored the same on Tulane as Oklahoma and Kansas state did with Ben not having one of his better days. Their defense is giving up 10 points a game in the other 3 games.
