The View From Section 241 — Air Force

And also, before the refs confirmed the TD on replay, the color dude was saying if JF hit the outside of the pylon with the ball, it’s not a TD, he needed to hit the inside. Nice knowing the rules, my friend…lol

Just to give a name to the color dude. His name is Randy Cross. Since I’m an OG, I remember him playing guard and center for the 49ers until 88. He played college ball at UCLA. He was praising Mora so I wonder if he knows Coach even though he played 40 years before Mora was HC. Coach was also assistant with San Francisco after Randy had already retired in mid 90s

Randy Cross was an excellent player. Won three Super Bowls for the 49ers. His broadcasting career has been on a downward spiral. At one time he was on the NFL today show on CBS sports in the 1990s.

They couldn’t stop a basic fullback dive.

the fullback dive in a triple option is not exactly a straightforward fullback dive in the traditional sense. I understand why there was difficulty there.

there are so many attack points for the defense to cover, and attentions become so divided on covering them all, that the most "basic" play becomes hard to defend. And as JM said, scout team can't replicate it because no one really runs it as quickly and smoothly as the service academies. it really is a gem to watch those schools run these ancient offenses. It makes me feel like it's the year 1947 again.

When you are allergic to tackling at times it’s tough to stop.

We just held Air Force to its lowest number of points this season. Weird week to be making snide comments about our D.

The frustration with the D was in part the 2 to 3 yards after a hit the AFA players got consistently. This was the ultimate bend don't break D on display.
