Enjoying the game immensely. The offense has looked good the last 3 weeks against really bad defenses. You were acting like all the offensive woes were over. If we played ET or UTC next week how many do we score? I just want to see some production against a decent defense.

We have a freshman QB that is getting better every week. We've found the "other than Wynn" answer at RB. The offense has stopped a lot of the read option/outside pitch stuff.
You won't believe this, but the offense is doing a lot of stuff differently than it was earlier in the year.

Stat of the game to this point is Washington, Samford's all everything receiver, has 5 yards on 3 catches.

His lack of special teams impact is highly notable as well.
Too bad we could not have done this two or three more times this season.

Some of the modifications I'm noticing:
Miller is being more frequently used as a slot WR than an inline TE. He still does both, but he's a far more dangerous receiver than blocker.
We're frequently running with two fullbacks (Roberto + Abrams, etc.)
Not quite all the time, but we're spending a lot more time in the pistol. Instead of running east west, we're spending a lot more time north south.
The pistol isn't the under-center offense we used to run, but it's a more modernized version of it. Frequently, we're in a single back with two wing blockers, which is a new school version of old school.
We've got a lot more designed runs for the QB. Wilson just tucking the ball around the edge. He's not a big guy, but he seems to be instructed to get what he can and not take an unnecessary hit.
The coaches are calling a passing game more designed for Wilson. Nothing static, he's on the move a lot.

Just noticed something on defense.
I don't see Blackshear. I think we're shutting down Samford's passing game with two freshman corners.

Great goal line stand to hold them to FG
Roberto never actually touches the ground, but they mark him a yard short of the ball.
Furman utter stupidity lets them back in the game! Rivaled only by the stupidity of the announcers!
I am not sure about some of these coaching decisions. Seem to be daring Samford to come back.
I think we got that last first down based on the replay.
4th and 2 did not get it
Onside kick did not get it
4th and half yard did not get it
I would love to see our stats for the year on 4th down and short. True we did get the TD today.

Yep failing to convert twice on third and short has turned the rout into lets hold on.
I think some of the 4th down attempts are because of the opponent.
An extra 15-20 yards of field position against Samford really doesn't matter. Citadel, yes. Samford, no.
