I'm not sure how I feel about this one. 11 years in the Ivy League?

As a Mississippi State fan, I'm not even sure what that is. It may be ficticious.

After watching the SEC title game and the NC game, I really liked the way Mullen used his TE's at Florida. The inside screens off the triple options were a thing of beauty and seemed to work every time. A healthy Marcus Green could excel in that role especially with his speed.
