Agreed, I've heard this, "Coach X isn't tipping his hand early in the
season" for years, and I think it's complete B.S. But I do think that
the score and statistics don't tell the whole story of this game.  

IMO, the gameplan got completely out of wack because of the crazy start.
When you start out early up by 21 you tend to let down and think we
don't need to kill them now -- we just need to run out the clock the
scores will happen, and your whole strategy changes.  And then a couple
of quick scores -- and all of the sudden you're thinking -- why didn't
we kick them while they were down. But by that point momentum has
shifted and you can't figure out what's really changed.  

It was not a good performance either way -- but it was exciting.... And
that in itself was fun -- especially since we won.
