Yes, that was the bootleg 5/10/15 play (RB out 5 yards, TE out 10, WR out 15). Though I do remember that after a while, opposing defenses got wise and starting bringing linebackers from the weak side to crush the quarterback. John Navarre got dumped on his butt more than once on that play.

That passing game had better be there when we need it (ie: this week in South Bendover), because that's what they keep saying. I'm glad to see the changes made from Jim Herrman's "stand around, pick your nose and give up a lead" defense to Ron English's aggressiveness, but we still haven't played anybody. Granted you don't need to open up the playbook to beat Vandy or CMU, but I still need to see some sign that we can play with the big boys.

At least Mike DeBord brought back the QB roll out and pass to the TE. That play along with Charles Woodson won us the National Championship in 97.
