My main positive was how much better Taquan threw the ball today. I know he doesn't have much of an arm, but we ask so much of a quarterback, I'll take it if he can be accurate. I think maybe he trusted his protection more today and was relaxed, plus Paul didn't wait until third and long to...
Supersize, thanks SO MUCH for sharing that wonderful story. Remembering Eddie Lee brings back sweet memories. We all need something to give us a smile right now.
If he wasn't the best back we ever had, he was in the top three. I would love to see what he would look like in his prime at...
The guys we lined up yesterday looked awful smallish and young. What are the chances we will have the linemen we expected to be the starters all back by Louisville?
I think this is huge. With no help needed to cover our wides, everyone else can play the option. Even if we could block, there are always too many defenders running to the ball.
I was kinda thinking the same thing. If we have some better talent but it lacks experience, let's give them some this year. But yeah, I guess it really is too early.
I'm less irritated about the call then the execution. Like so much Saturday, we don't look like a team that is ready to start the season. Way too much we just don't have down yet. Had the guy run to the right spot, chances are we wouldn't be griping about the call.
I don't really think we have a chance. I can't remember when I last was so sure of a loss. But that said, many years we win one we have no business winning. Likewise, Clem plays the occasional road stinker. It could happen.
I stopped watching for much of the second half and it gave me a distorted view of the game. Having read all the commentary, I don't feel nearly as bad. I see two major problems. 1) Early road game lethargy and 2) inexperience in the passing game.
Many, many times we don't begin to play...
I'm with Katlong. I don't see any more pressure with the new defense than with Roof's defenses. 'Bout killed me at one point when we had them third and long back at their 10 or 15. We give the passer no pressure and he calmly throws for the first down. I thought that would change.
We have a...
I was bummed pretty bad Sunday and Monday. Not so much just because we lost, but more because we lost yet another game that could have gone either way and we looked like the better team for so much of the game. Then I put it behind me very briefly before hearing about Benson. Then I was...
Okay, Jerry, two positives. 1) Taquan threw some beautiful passes yesterday. 2) The blocking the first two series that Oliver was in looked like late season 2014. Huge holes.
Bad news: not one of the front 8 had a good game. Nose tackle was neutralized by the center every time I watched him. Didn't push him back, never stepped around. Ends were never a factor on a pass play. Linebackers were slow and none stood out. Good news: based on the number of times the QB...
Tech Wreck's thought here will help me sleep, that and about ten cold ones. I said earlier our defense was out athleted by the USF offense, but many, many times we came flying in to make the spectacular tackle and whiffed. Had we played for the sure tackle instead we'd have played a better...
The defense was my biggest disappointment. No more quarterback pressure than last year. But the thing is the USF offense badly out athleted our defense. They were faster, quicker, and stronger. Many times we had people in position to make a play but the offensive guy beat them. As...
If the game were at home, I'd be pretty relaxed about it. But in recent years I never rest easy before road games. We don't look like the same football team to me. Slow on both sides of the ball. No fire and enthusiasm. Dead sideline. A low name recognition team but a possibly good team...
I see a lot to like in this guy. Thanks for sharing, cheese. I love speed in a linebacker. He'll get a little bigger, but speed is hard to grow. If he has a little agility to go with it, he could be really good. Fast, agile linebackers are the ones which give our own offensive players...
I sure don't know, but this question bugs the hell out of me too. Do Navy and Army have this problem? Is it something about the nature of our offense? Do defenses to a lot of stuff we were not expecting in game preparation? Maybe take's thought about continuity is as close to an answer as...
