Streaks Are Made To Be Broken

Friday night Southern Nash ended the Tarboro Vikings 43 game home winning streak. Jeff Craddock has preached not in our house you don't come and beat us.  Our lives whether you believe it or not is all about how we feel about  ourselves.  Winners walk around with the attitude that they are better than you and know that they are going to win.  People or teams that are average or less never quite believe that they can do it all the time.  There is doubt during crunch time as to really thinking you can get the job done.  When a team that knows they are going to play a team that is not quite sure they will win every time the winners will make the play to win and the other team will do something to help lose the game.  Friday night was a case of two very good teams going head to head and the clock ran out and the game was over.

Yesterday attended a wedding in Kitty Hawk and didn't see any football at all.  I recorded both Carolina and State and whenI got home never made it to the end of either.  I wanted to see if Whit Barnes was the starting line up but due to the over run of the Virginia game didn't get to see the lineups.

College coaches are probably the most overpaid people in the world.  every type of offense ever devised was done to take advantage of your team.   The rage of the 70's were the wishbone and the veer.  Both were designed to take advantage of small lineman where you didn't have to knock the man down across the line from you but just screen him off long enough for your backs to scoot through a hole.

These offenses expecting the quarterback to be the main runner and passer you must have a quarterback that can do both.  Neither State or Carolina have that type QB but both coaches continue to run offense not suited to their quarterbacks.  Injuries can cause issues and State 's and even maybe in Chapel Hill. Please coaches show me you know a little about football offense.  Run plays that suit your quarterback you have on the field.  Neither coach has shown me that they know much about the game only they known one type system.
