Just like a bunch of your points and yards came against Louisiana-Laffayette, Rice, Baylor, Texas Tech(Granted their defense improved but it still sucked), and other mediocre to bad Big-12 teams. The only good defenses I think Texas played were Ohio State and maybe Oklahoma. I know Kansas was like top 5 in rush defense but they didn't have the athletes to keep up with Tejas. Alright, I'm getting a little off topic. Yeah, that clip was against Illinois but you can see plenty more of the same stuff in the Michigan game and others.

Yeah, that did sound a little odd. I was referring to someone saying something about Chris Wells coming into the game for a short yardage situation instead of keeping Pittman in and I just took that as he thought Pittman was only a finesse back and Wells was only a power back.

While this is true the same could be said for us. No team keyed on TS nearly as much as VY but they still respected his running ability which had to help.
