GAME TIME: INSIDE THE FIVE

West Georgia and San Diego are located 2,103 miles apart. But in today�s transcontinental showdown, only four yards separates these two teams from a big win or disappointing defeat. Trailing by eight late in the game, San Diego has marched inside West Georgia�s five. Harbaugh has all his time outs left, so time is not an issue. Putting the ball in the end zone against a fired-up West Georgia defense is.

Harbaugh: �We�d like to get into two tight ends, two backs and a receiver or we�ll get into a muscle group, which is three tight ends and two backs. We cut our splits down, cut it down to a foot split, and we always use inside footwork and inside hat placement.�
