I would roll Chandler out with a run pass option. 

Ok, but why?  
 

Football teams have understood the simplest way to move one yard for over a hundred years now…and Morris got to see Army do it over and over yesterday…you get under center and run straight forward.  Hell, it is now 100% legal to have another player push you forward for that one yard.

1 foot/yard from the goal line is where two things are pretty important.

1. You need to have linemen who are not only big, but they are also very strong for their size and quick off the line. THEN you need a RB that is a cross between a bowling ball and a battering ram........and also very quick off the line. Someone with very well developed thighs. Attaway used to be that guy, and our current "lost for the season RB"  Harris (#44 on your program) appeared to be that kind of guy. 

If those two things are not doable, then you need a tight end who has very sure hands and is good at fighting for the ball. That would be Oscar Hammond (#23 on your program) who I never saw out on the field yesterday. 

Considering the injury attrition that has gone on this year, I would say that Morris and his staff have cobbled together an impressive group of scrappers/overachievers. For example, our starting RB yesterday, (who I am very impressed with) is a converted WR transfer from Kansas St.
