Half of 1 game against a non-traditional offense doesn't mean Stanard is doing a good job.

Didn't say he was doing an overall good job, but I am saying is that Stanard, for some reason, can keep Air Force's triple option to a season low (did the same last year), but struggles to slow down more standard offenses. Just an odd thing I noticed.ragtimejoe1 said:fromolwyoming said:Until Wacha went down in the 2nd half, the defense was actually doing a good job of containing Air Force's triple option.

Almost makes me wonder if he didn't plan the entire year behind it. Like the ol Dave Christensen AFA Tuesdays - or whatever it was.fromolwyoming said:Didn't say he was doing an overall good job, but I am saying is that Stanard, for some reason, can keep Air Force's triple option to a season low (did the same last year), but struggles to slow down more standard offenses.

Why do we NEED a "quirky offense"? When Vigen isn't being stubborn about trying to run the ball up the middle with 8-9 guys in there and actually changes things up, the offense does move the ball quite well. We are getting big o-linemen. Coffman, when not in meltdown mode, is a pretty good QB. Hill is an absolute beast. Gentry is leading the conference in receiving yards. Cummings is only a sophomore but is one of the better o-linemen the last couple of years.WyoBrandX said:Almost makes me wonder if he didn't plan the entire year behind it.

We need a quirky offense. Something that teams don't see very often (like the AFA triple option). And a tough as hell defense. I think that is the definition of Cowboy Tough.
