Wow, I just got back from my son's soccer game and we already rolling.

How about that much maligned defense?

Any clue how many yards he has? It seems like our plan is to beat them up with the big boys. Rashad and Cory Raspberry active so far.

Maypray is stopped short of the goalline on 4th & Goal and the defense delivers bigtime!

We stop another fourth down... this one from the 2. We didn't use luck this time, just good old fashion defense.

We now start with our backs as far to the line as possible. How about a 99-yard drive?

SOP when backed up that close to the goal is to run a sneak or 2 to get your tailback out of the end zone.

Yup. And if you're feeling creative, a quick pass would work, too. But not a traditional handoff against a strong defense.

and remember that GW - CCU game is on MASN at 3:30. And from Mr. Lang's pre-game notes
1. If Liberty wins and Gardner-Webb loses to Coastal Carolina at home at 3:30 p.m., the Flames are the outright Big South champions for a second straight year. A Liberty win gives the Flames a piece of the title regardless of what Gardner-Webb does. Liberty hosts GWU next Saturday.

I have no problem with throwing on first down, but why do we have to go for it all so often? I's such a low-percentage play.

Only 7 carries for RJ. Not enough. VMI has almost a 3-1 advantage in time of posession. Usually an overrated stat, but our defense is going to be exhausted if we can't give them a couple of long drives to rest in the second half.
