Do you put a LB to spy on him? 

I don't know what they're gonna do.  I haven't seen enough of him to know, but I have some idea.  I guarantee they don't put a "spy" on him, though.
With the SJU D pretty solid vs. the run, and with the SJU corners being some of the best in the conference, And, with Bethel's relative lack of production in the passing attack (vs. their strong running attack) If I were the Johnnie D-coordinator, I would walk one safety into the box, essentially playing a 4-4.  Let the DE's play run game, take away their outside contain responsibility, press the OLB/SS into outside run support, forcing the pulling Bethel Guards to get across the field quicker (vs. having to pull to get a corner, an OLB appears much quicker.  I think the SJU corners are good enough, and also are facing a passing attack that is not the strentgh of their opponent, that the corner/remaining safety could play a soft 3 with still giving them the opportunity to take away the slant/dig routes with the OLB's presence at the snap.  This way, you don't need to play a spy, you get 8 guys in the box, you shorten the gap for the pulling guards (something Bethel does VERY well!) and you take away/limit the 3-step game.  Still, though, Wetzel's biggest scare for the Johnnies will be moving the pocket/sprinting out - forcing the OLB to either play run or pass.  Here, the passing attack will acutally depend HIGHLY on the MLB's getting over the the sprinted to side of the field, allowing the OLB to take away the initial throw, and then coming up to force Wetzel to throw.  He is very dangerous on his feet.  

I would agree, they are a vastly different team without their starting running back. For being a freshman, he is a great back.  The fact that we were able to stop them twice in the green zone, when their starting back was out of the game, suggests the significant drop off that exists between their starter and the senior back-up.  Certainly, their senior will have much more game knowledge, and will give his all in such a momentous game, but, if their freshman back isn't able to go, or go at 100% their gameplan will have to change dramatically.  
LAB, excellent analysis and plan.  The reliance on the corners and MLB scares me though....think we might have to just outscore them. ;D

Buckman quit lurking and say something humorous....BTW: Will you be bringing the crew your Jello Shots or should TDT make a last minute audible to the one and only Raiderguy??

Fellas: If SJU beats Bethel on Saturday they are NOT going to the playoffs.  You heard it here first. 

I'll be there, just not sure on arrival time so you may want to make other arrangements for the goodness that is jello shots.

TDT - the schmoozing isn't going too well right now.  With being gone the last three days and tonight as well, which I forgot about when I called you last night, the chances of me making my first road appearance of the season are down to about 10 %.  I am always 100 % there in spirit but you had best solidify your backup ride with TC.  I need to maintain a high number of "get out of the house for playoff game appearance" cards as I'll be needing them shortly.

And you are correct, the Royals playoff chances evaporate after they lose on Saturday.  

GO JOHNNIES!!!!
Go Johnnies!!!

I don't think Flash's wife cares where he goes as long as he goes somewhere.  ;D

I'm taking Mrs. Flash along this weekend. Didn't want to have to kiss her goodbye.
If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved.

Easy there big fella.  My attendance last year included all home games plus Concordia, St. Thomas and St. Olaf.  This year includes all home games, River Falls and after this weekend, Bethel.  Unfortunately, my Stiftyfest attendance has dropped this year.

I agree that a bethel loss on saturday ends BU's season.  I obviously don't know nearly as much as a lot of people who are talking about it, but I just don't see how it would happen.
LAB - Bethel's backup RB (Bangs) put up 79 yards against SJU last year without even playing a full half, so he's plenty capable, but you are correct in saying that he is clearly no Flannery.

My wife wants to know what I am giggling about.

For those of you who don't want to waste your time reading TDT's "Top Ten Things To Look For At Bethel On Saturday" (now up at www.JohnnieFootball.com), Carl Spackler was kind enough to share the truth with jf.com--he's actually a Johnnie fan!

You'll be able to read all about this shocking revelation tomorrow morning at 9:00!

From TDT's 10 things to see at bethel...."Nobody has success playing from behind against the Johnnies. "
How about the '06 game? Down 13-0, and winning 28-13?  Or do you have some asinine reason why that didn't count?

I completely agree about the trick plays though.  I havne't seen bethel pull any stupid fake punts yet this year, so I wouldn't be surprised to see johnson pull it out at a horrible time and make a jacka$$ out of himself.
