That's, like almost HALF A YEAR.
Sorry. Kinda busy getting married and then experiencing that. Been thinking a lot, though. I'm going to start posting twice a week and build up from there. |
First, U of M game: Ain't gonna talk about it. Especially since I'm watching this Oklahoma-Texas Tech game.
DAAAAAAMMMMMMMNNNN.
A couple of years back I wrote about how rational assessment can really challenge classic football assumptions. One of the college level coaches who has completely changed the way that football is played is Mike Leach of the Texas Tech Red Raiders. I have seen bits and pieces of their games, and always watched the numbers, but I have never had a chance to watch a Tech game until today. Huh. How to describe this?
Well, here's the simplest way: the first quarter took TWO HOURS TO PLAY. Oh yeah, and Tech put up TWO HUNDRED YARDS of offense. Against Oklahoma. They went for it twice on fourth down. Their time of possession was ten minutes. And this is...well, apparently this is typical.
I've never seen anything like it. What a fun way to play football.
