So? Block 'em.

We can't just run over anybody on every play guarenteed. But if you can't expect to get one yard on two tries from the one, what does that say about your line?

It doesn't matter where you run. They can't afford to key on any one gap. If you run outside, you have to hold the line longer, but you also give your back a chance to walk in untouched if you are successful.

And we weren't. Quit complaning about the coaches making a call that gave us a great chance to win. Things don't always work out.
