Coach Talk

Botro’s Team
Hey, this sport is all about creating mismatches, right? Thanks to some stellar yardage production from our running backs, our team created a noticeable disparity this week. Our three backfield starters tallied 226 more yards from scrimmage than the RBs on Testudo (372 total yards to 146), and we wound up doubling up them at the position, 69.7 points to 30.1.
