[NU Sports] A football maxim proves to be true--again

[Paul Minerva]

Mike is right.  I admire aggressivness but with 20 points on the board the field goal was the proper choice.  I also have noticed that QB draws and the option have not been emphasized much this year.  
   
  I have a theory that w/o the QB running our offense is not as effective.  Isn't one of the features of the spread that the QB is the second back?  Didn't we have a really big gain off an option play last week?  
   
  I wonder if McGee is favoring the passing game because that is what he is familiar with.

  Never take points off the scoreboard. Had NU taken the field goal, they
could have tied the game and possibly have been going for the win. 

Hopefully Pat Fitzgerald learned a painfull lesson tonight.
