Another thing to consider -- and we don't really have a way to measure this unless Shaw or Chryst chooses to reveal it -- is that Chryst might have been doing more than just turning around and handing the ball off. You'll remember that after his team ran for a record 446 yards against Washington five years ago, Andrew Luck said he felt it was the best game he had played up until that point. He spoke about how he had to check to the right running play at the line of scrimmage, and he felt he had gotten it right almost every time. I don't know how much freedom Chryst has in that regard right now, but there's always an opportunity to learn, and I'm sure he was still learning in that fourth quarter.
Please clear the field! The game is not over!
