USC -v- Stanford

I hate to say this, because I like the guy as a coach; but David Shaw is really hurting his team with deliberate poor play calling.
I say that, not because he is tanking his team on purpose, rather due to his attempt to push Love as a Heisman contender. Shaw is continuing to run Love again & again, even when it is obvious that the Trojans are keyed in on him.
He needs to quit trying to force the issue, and just play his "Team's" strengths. The receivers they have are actually rather decent. But they just aren't using them.
USC can't get things going against Stanford's D at the moment. However, if Shaw keeps running 3 & out drives, he's going to give USC plenty of opportunities to figure things out. When that happens, Stanford wont have an answer. Because the QB & receivers weren't given the chance to get a rhythm early enough to make a difference.
