Neither. Everyone knows it was 'cause of the Gatorade.



Seriously, though, I've always thought the coaches. I don't remember the year and I can't find the article, but Carson got asked why they weren't going deep (I think it was in '06 or '07) and he said he really didn't know, that they had the team for it, that the OC (Brat) had the plays for it, that he wanted to and that the OC wanted to. And that was just the end of it. It didn't go into any insight as to why they weren't.

Then and now, I took that to mean Marvin or Mike wanted to  go with more running, shorter passes.
