Coach Talk

Sooners
Identifying mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Fueled by solid performances by Christian McCaffrey and Chris Carson, our team made that a point of emphasis this past week. We quadrupled What?! at the running back spot (59.75 points to 14.5). McCaffrey had 175 total yards and two TDs, while Carson logged 137 yards and two scores.
What?!
Chin up, What?!! Listen, I've been at it long enough to realize that sometimes free points just seem to miraculously appear out of the blue. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Hmmm, alright... asking for an additional 20 points might be a bit on the excessive side.
