vs. UH: Take the ball or defer until 2nd half?

[Eureka Dog]

If you think a game is gonna be a shoot out, take the ball first.

I like to have the ball to start the second half.

Also, with the way our offense has been sluggish out of the gates, do we really want to waste that first possession? Maybe if they aren't the first folks on the field they'll be more in-tuned to the game and not be so sluggish.

if you can score right before halftime and score on the first drive of the 2nd half, it can be a HUGE swing in the game. </p>

same as Lawdawg's explaination.

the beginning of games for us has been awful for the offense. Plus maybe you get something game changing out of Berry/Bumphis to start the 2nd half
