In order to win a game as a 3 TD underdog you can’t be afraid to lose by 70!
Take high risk early:
1) fake punt from minus 1
2 surprise onside opening kick
3) Go for all fourth down and less than 5
4) Blitz all 11 on a short yard play
5) Run QB throwback on 4th and 1
(NoFear)

How a Northwestern biomedical engineering grad created a startup analytics company, which grew from 1 college football client in 2013 to 70 FBS & 4 NFL programs in 2022. He helped change football strategy w/"The Book" ... which, uh, isn't actually a book actionnetwork.com/ncaaf/how-…

imagine all the TV analysts
having informed debates about aggressive coaching decisions

Proud poppa moment. Here’s a great example of a player exploiting a rule for great field position. Explain the rule.

Coaches contradict themselves. “They’ll say things like, ‘It’s a game of inches.’ ... And they leave points on the field.”
But after the Ravens’ loss Sunday, the NFL’s analytics community felt hopeful. Just ask @FO_ASchatz, @friscojosh & @ChampStatsMike. baltimoresun.com/sports/rave…

UConn’s historic defense! Jarrett Guarantano with one hand tied behind his back! The race to 200 (passer rating)! Super lucky Kansas! Great ratings for horrible games!
Let’s take one final look back at 2018’s wildest (and most telling) CFB stats.

Just saw Jeopardy and maaaannn do I have some thoughts. (Spoilers below)
Nate got a daily double here and only bet $6,000. (He got it right) You gotta go for the kill against James! Gave him a little daylight and James took advantage.

Cowboys line up to go on 4th & 1 • Aikman “doesn’t like it” • Next play: 1st and 10 at the +29 • Next play: TD • 🤔🤔🤔 @ChampStats

Great quote today from Rams coach Sean McVay when asked why they went for it in 4th and 1:
“We attack success. We don’t fear failure.”

Wake Forest has not only twice gone for it on fourth-and-semi-short around midfield, but they’ve had quick, decisive playcalls cued up for such situations and have basically run hurry-up.
I like Dave Clawson more every year.

To explain long game importance, he once offered me this scenario. Makes sense.
“You and I are having a match. Would you rather have a match on the putting green, chipping or who hits it longer and straighter? You’d take putting green every time. At least you’d have a chance.”

*4th&1*
“Go for it.”
*4th&3*
“I’d go for it.”
*4th&7*
“Run the Annexation of Puerto Rico.”
🗣That’s how you win in the postseason! teapawt.org/nufbfamily/status/9490…
This is going to be fun.
@coachfitz51 will take you to school on Monday night in the Coaches Film Room as part of @espn's @CFBPlayoff Championship MegaCast.
