Even the 3rd-1 call I was thinking as I listened that here's a good time to throw downfield and catch Duke off guard. THEN I remembered who was under center and how accurate he'd been lately and said "just give the ball to Houston". *still laughing about hitting Kirstie Alley" Instead of having TJ practice with his receivers this week wonder if Shoop can get her to run routes? *snickers* I’ve been as hard on the coaches as anyone so yes they do deserve much of the credit for the turnaround.

I do think the last thing Butch needs to do is move Yates out of the program like he did to Sexton. In my mind the ideal situation would be a competent Renner with TJ as a backup. There hasn't been any evidence that TJ is improving, although the coaches see much more than I do. ^LOL

I thought our offense and the play calling really outperfoes against VT. We'll need to bring everything we got against the canes. THF

The UVA game and the FSU 4th quarter are the things that make one's head shake. Yet, still, Saturday, on a 3rd and one near midfield, what do we do? That play results in a tipped ball for an INT. Thank God, Charles Brown returned the favor two plays later. The fireworks went off literally on that play and it truly was the play of the game, if not the season.
