quote:Honestly, I'm happy with going deep in those situations for that very reason. If we force them to back those safeties off then our underneath passing game and the run game are more viable options in those situations. I would love to see Jennings (or Harris) challenge the secondary deep every time the defense creeps the safeties up in the box.
Honestly, I'd like to see a 3rd and 6 conversion where we complete an 8 yard pass instead of going for the deep ball. However, I do understand that it may have been a gameplan thing playing matchups with our receivers against the SHSU corners. If they were locked up with no safety help, I can see why we'd go for it all.

Well, not only does it serve to open up the box, it also is very low risk.
I've heard some complaints about forcing the go route to Dural, but I believe this has been pre-determined with the staff, not something he has decided all on his own.
I may be giving too much credit here, but I'm pretty sure they don't trust him enough yet to be allowing check downs and multiple post snap reads.
I think the fly route is his check down to minimize the costliness of a mistake and to keep them honest.
