I'm sure that at the start of every series against OSU, coach Shaw thought Chryst would lead us to a score.  Even though by the end of the 3rd Q Chryst had nearly thrown 4 or 5 picks, but for the defenders not catching the balls.  At that point I had no confidence that Chryst could lead a scoring drive, but somehow Shaw still believed, presumably. 

When Nall coughed up the ball with around 2 min remaining in the game, I said to myself "So what?  We cannot move the ball. "  But, in trotted Chryst who led the team to a 4th down desperation pass to a well covered reciever.  The ball somehow snuck through the defender's arms and Smith made a great catch.  We went on to score and win the game.

What do they call it when you do the same thing over and over again and expect a different result?  Yeah, but if you finally get that different result are you a genius?  Lucky?  They say that there is a fine line between insanity and genius.  I say that coach Shaw tip toed down that line last Thursday.

But, I'd rather have an insanely genius coach that delivers 10+ win seasons consistently than a predictable level headed Tyrone Willingham type coach that is good for 6.2 wins per season on average.
