re: It took 15 weeks for our staff to run the read-option.

My man, Jennings has run this before. Just go back and look at past games. The other schools shut his arse down when he attempted to run. Only aTm let him break loose like this. Dude isn't much of a runner.

We've had success on this play before. A number of our big second half runs against Wisconsin were read option plays. Hilliard's long TD run to give us the lead was a read option play. It's just that Jennings handed it off instead of keeping it (the play makes the D think). Harris' 46-yard TD against NM St. was off of it as well. That was our longest run of the year until last night when Fournette tied it.

The bottom line is that he ran well last night and had some good fakes. aTm's D is poor, but they held Prescott, Marshall and Wallace to low ypc averages and under 100 yards.
