I like how every team that gets beat or looks bad in a scrimmage always plays the "we played it close to the vest" or "we didn't show anything" card. Do you think the other team was running wide open? Pretty much everyone plays it basic in the scrimmages--lots of times that is a true indicator of what you have. When you are in base you are man on man, straight up. Unless you have new coaches most teams run the same offense and defense each season so even if you don't show everything your opponents know what to expect. Sometimes the scrimmages don't mean anything, sometimes they are telling. We heard from the HC faithful how tough the HC offensive/defensive lines were. Supposedly they dominated their camps and were fed , rusty nails, tree bark and raw meat. Shouldn't they have been able to do better than a couple of scoreless series while giving up a couple of touchdowns on defense? I saw the Black Bears a couple of times last season and thought that they looked good in their uniforms but that they weren't as impressive with their technique.
