just curious.

By the way, I just rewatched the first half of the OB in '87. If you have time, I highly recommend it. I came away thinking different than I did at the time. Our Oline played terrible... It wasn't so much Miami's "D" being significantly better. The OL didn't stay on their blocks at all, and you know as well as I do, in order for the triple option to work, the bigs up front need to make the holes. Also, even though Rotnei Anderson was a fumble machine that year, I think Barry made a blunder not starting him over Lydell Carr, who was returning for the first time off of a blown knee from the year before.
