How Oregon will likely try to deal with Fairley...

Okay, that's twice in 2 days that I've seen someone describing an offense using the word, "mesh".  Stop with your innovative new terminology or Snaggle's gonna' have to fuck a bitch up.

They are correct in that this technique will work.....IF you are running the veer. What UO tried to run was a long hand-off using a deep mesh. If the mesh does not happen on the line, you cannot hope to use this technique against a DL that is so quick. Like one guy said, he is a 310 lb guy that moves like a 180 lb guy. If you are not quicker than him, you stand no chance.

I kept hearing Herbie the love stud saying that the QB made the wrong read on the goal line. That is BS. Had he handed the ball off, they would have lost 3 yds instead of 5. There is no way the RB would have "stepped" into the end-zone untouched. Fairly was in the middle of the hand off. The only way to beat him is to run away from him and hope that one of the other guys is a little weaker. They weren't. UO lost.

Florids used it a couple of years ago against Dorsey of LSU.  Being left unblocked often surprises big guys in the middle.  Fairley had been coached up, and was ready.  We made a living off veer this year, but reading DEs not DTs.  Its as good a play as any until you run up on a guy like Fairley who is also prepared by coaching.

Option football term, been around a long time.

Meshing just refers to the point in which the QB meets the RB and they "MESH". At that point in time they are as one and you do not know who has the ball. It usually takes place a the line in the true veer.

Speaking of no calls....the Refs for this game sucked.  The NCAA really needs to step up, and make an officiating body.  None of these conference officials, make an officiating body that holds all officials responsible and keep the officiating more even keeled.

Holds were missed all day, and that blatant Offensive pass interference was ridiculous.

I couldn't agree more.
