LOL, yeah, stop trying to figure it out. I wasted an hour of my life doing the same, there’s no logic to it.
I mean, he’s our only vertical threat. He’s been beating your press man all game long. In what world is single man high with a safety in the middle third a winning strategy against Josh on 4th and 16? It’s idiotic. Mike Tressel needs to answer for that because he cost his kids a chance to celebrate victory.
Only thing I can think of is that MSU went single high but was going to shade him to Bebe side, but the roll out away from Bebe pulled the safety away. Just going off my fuzzy memory. It was a long day of drinking.
