This article takes a look at the pistol offense's foray into the NFL, breaking down some of the more technical aspects of the offense. Can the offense stick in the NFL? Perhaps only time will tell.
UNLV defeats Cal on last-second putback by Quintrell Thomas.
Could this be true, BYU, Boise st, San Diego st, Houston, SMU, and Tulsa to the MWC. I hope it is.

Aztec Killing Him put up this list to education non-football fans at this game: • Not seeing the action? That’s probably because your eyes are trained on the sky, silly. Look down. No further down, that’s the Plaza Level. No, too far. That’s your shoes. Look at the green thing! With the people running on it! Nevermind. • If you think that quarterback looks familiar, you are correct. Not only is Ryan Katz a fantastic dual threat quarterback, he also plays Gyp Rosetti on the HBO series Boardwalk Empire. • I have no idea what spear they’re talking about or why you’re supposed to fear it. I’m just as confused as you. • Seriously? Did you really just ask me if the "Padres" are about to "kick a home run?" Don’t even talk to me anymore. Get the fuck out of here and watch the Sky Show from the parking lot. I hate you. • No, no, I assure you that Aztec fans are not booing Rocky Long. They’re saying Loooooo-ong. Honestly. No, pressuring and hitting the quarterback is not illegal in college football, but I can see why you might get that impression. • Damn it — get off your iPhone! There’s a game going on! Actually, before you do can you tell me the score of the Giants game? THX. • Yes that defensive scheme is quite unusual — very astute of you to notice. It’s called the 3-3-5. Why? I think because when you multiply 3 x 3 x 5, you get the average number of points it allows. • No, I’m sorry, Zuma is no longer the mascot. Wait, don’t leave! Where are you going?
(ed note: I'm mostly posting this to pop my United(tm) cherry) On Saturday Nevada will host a team whose offense will look pretty familiar. Texas State runs the pistol as their primary offense, and have found some success with it. Should be an interesting look at how the Wolf Pack handles some of their own medicine.
