    Fans in Ohio State still loathe Tressel's playcalling and conservatism and think they underachieve every year for their talent.

      Ah yes as Mr Crimson once said in 2007: (paraphrasing)

      Michigan fans greet each other with "Go Blue!"
      USC fans greet each other with "Fight on!"
      Utah fans greet each other with "Fire Ludwig!"

        Anae isn't bad, the skill players are horrible.
        Byu's pass efficiency is 119/120. Guess who's 120.

            That reinforces camelish's point. Ludwig played a part in the 2008 season, with a big part being Johnson's development.

                In pass efficiency? C'mon ... you're smarter than that. Just because AFA doesn't pass a lot, doesn't mean they're not highly effective when they do. AFA is third nationally in yards per attempt, and is 19th nationally in pass efficiency.

                Yes, UCLA is 120th/dead last in pass efficiency.

                        You should've experienced enough sick feelings in your stomach when AFA drops back to pass against Utah to know better.

                          Yeah, that's a good point, although all bronco worship aside, he doesn't seem like the type to think like that. I can see him not doing out of a concern for stability though.

                          The good thing about all this season may be that this is the impetus to get rid if him.

                            I've spoken with multiple offensive players that played under Anae. They all feel that those past teams won on shear talent. Very few of them have any respect for Anae. They expect him to be fired after the season.

                            There's a reason BYU tried moving Anae up to the press box. Bronco clearly wasn't happy with his play calling and adjustments.

                              You can't fire both coordinators mid-season. Not even teams that go 0-12 do that.

                                Its amazing to me that with all the offensive woes Anae is never interviewed or quoted after the game, it is always Doman that talks to the media. I can't remember the last quote from Anae since the season started.
