[Husker] Spurrier Interview

[Tom Rief]

When they get the players to run the offense that he wants to run.  Until 
then, you have to use what you have.  Callahan knows that Dailey can't throw 
the ball very good, but he keeps calling for long pass plays. Why did we 
have so many interceptions this year, not because we were playing to our 
current strengths.
