Glad we got the win... but looking ahead we have a major flaw. No power running game.
Examples:
Q1 4th and 1 @ OM 22. No run between tackles, instead Malena goes wide and stuffed for 1 yd loss. no pts.
Q2 3rd and goal from 1, Wildcat with read/run, stuffed for loss of 2 yards.
Q3 - 2nd and goal from 1. Run wide, 5 yard loss. Next play, 3rd and 7 Manziel fumbles.. no pts.
Q4 - 2nd and half yard on OM 18. Run wide, 2 yard loss. Fortunately Maziel throws game winning TD
On these 4 plays alone with 3rd or 4th down with 1 yard or less, Ags had -10+ yards rushing. Really need some ability to run with power between the tackles to get 1 yard. This is an ongoing and serious issue that is only a few games away from being truly exposed.
Great win but we left some serious points on the field by not being able to run when we need less than a yard. Otherwise, Ags win this game by 17 or 20 points.
