Do your studying on Dan Moore, and if you have to Kevin Fogg (better know) and Vote.

Dan Moore. It's so easy for KFogg to be taken out of the game. Just kick the ball out of bounds, and run Dan Moore all night.

Yea, but Kevin also had 5 solo/ 1 asst tackle (1 tfl) and 2 2pt conversion INt/Break-ups vs Norfolk St.

Again, it's much easier to take KFogg out of the game than a RB. Just don't throw/run his way. And make your extra points and you don't have to go for 2.

I love KFogg, but if ANYONE kicks to him the rest of the season they should be benched or the coach fired.

Sadly, I agree with jcmanson on this one. But I hope I am completely wrong.

Proudly I don't. Kevin can affect many facets and will not be shut down. I think with the proper game plan Moore can be limited (somewhat).

Hahaha ... I wasn't sad to be agreeing with you personally. I was sad that I agreed with your take.

You still didn't explain yourself well, but I know what you're saying.

For scouting purposes, you guys could go to AlphaGriz's site and watch the entire App game again. The address is maroonblood.com and its under the video's thread. Theres also practice videos and such.

That said, I watched the App game about 4 times now, and am still trying to figure out how opposing teams would approach stopping Moore. Dude is a flat out beast, and if you bring safety help up and stack the box to stop him, Trent McKinney (QB) has now shown that he possesses the arm strength to gash teams when they take that approach. We have a stable of recievers and backs this year (one of our best ones, Jordan Canada, was essentially suspended for the first two games) to go with our massive Oline (i think the Avg. Height and weight is 6'4-6'5 and 306 ). We are MUCH better than most Griz fans thought coming into this season.

It will be interesting to see. I think we have the corners to match up with most teams wideouts at this level man to man if we decide to bring safety help. And most of our safeties best attributes is run support.

If the gameplan is to throw and kick and run AWAY from Kevin, isn't THAT influencing the game?

I think so.

Dan Moore will be a good warm up for our meeting with Miguel Maysonet. Find out where we're at?

Chris Lang believes Maysonnet is the best running back in the country, both FBS and FCS. If Bah and Sigmon are unavailable then I think they will be the "player(s) which will affect the game more" by their abscence.

I still find this poll / question very fascinating. I'm glad it has gotten closer because I think it's a close call.
