Sorry if this is a duplicate.  My email client behaved badly and I am not sure this got to the list.

>The play call I hated in yesterday's game came in the 2nd period at the end of the series below.  The score at the time is 14-0.  Viewing the plays you can see that NU is starting to impose itself on CU.  Then on third and three at the CU 32 Lee throws to the end zone to Niles Paul, incomplete.  At that point we are in 4 down territory.  Just grinding things out (no guarantee, I know) NU could be up 21-0 with 5 minutes or less left.  I think that scenario would have demoralized CU and made the rest of the game a lot easier on my blood pressure.
