One thing to consider is that we were an 8 wheel drive with the center two wheels dropped as opposed to 6 wheel with only one dropped wheel. It's much easier to rock back and forth on 1 wheel obviously. I think we may have had less of a tendancy to rock back because of that. We also had the advantage of not playing in the 1st week when they were really watching for it...it seems the calls on that loosened up a bit as the season progressed.
