Also, it seemed to me that Marks made more guys miss and out ran a few and turned those dump offs from 1-3 yard gains to 5-8 yard gains. Will made a few more throws. The WR caught better. TAMU got impatient. TAMU knew they couldn't allow us to sustain long drives and flip the field and/or score. TAMU knew their offense wasn't going to score a lot of points or make long drives. So they gambled with trying to stop us quickly.
Also, the early TO was them and not us. It was big that we got an early lead.
I agree with what you are saying. I've believed all along that this system takes a solid season or two to perfect. We are just now getting comfortable in it. Will and the WRs seem to be getting it more every week. The next step will be Will understanding when to audible to a run play so our backs are getting closer to 20-25 carries a game. I know everyone wants that to be on Leach right now - but Leach's whole philosophy revolves around teaching the QB how to manage the game. Leach isn't going to call straight run plays - it's going to be the QB's job to pick those moments correctly and allow the RBs to gash the opponents.
