I am on pins and needles for Saturday to get here. I have been thinking for the last few games that our offense has reached a level of diversity and execution which even a great defense can't stop. Paul now has to draw from a TO run quickly, a b back who is enough of a threat to respect...

To animal's point, there was a particularly satisfying exchange during the end of the radio show Monday night. Hearing it added a tone that a report of it doesn't capture all that well. A caller had no question but just wanted to say how much he had enjoyed the season and how happy he was to...

I was amazed when I learned it was a check from JT. What guts! I know it should have worked, but what if it didn't? I'm about ready to see the hurry up. If JT knows the offense that well, he could make some hay calling plays at the line.

I know we are not playing great offensive teams, but I agree that playing more agressive on defense is paying off. I think setting an agressive tone is part of why the other team is having so many throws just off and drops of catchable balls. Better teams with more poise may burn us, but as...

I wish we had more details about what exactly JHD is doing on the scout team. We know from PJ he is playing great, but at what? Is he an inside guy? Is he a rush end? Maybe someone could pose the question on the radio show.

I wonder if Francis Kallon might make a three linemen set DE? I know one of his problems at tackle is he can't play low enough. That wouldn't be as big a problem on a three linemen, sure pass down.

I was thinking about the "extra week" thing the other day. When we had an extra week, Brandon asked Coach what we would do with the time. I believe he said the team would have a few days off then start to prepare. It didn't sound like much of the extra time was going to be spent practicing...

Exactly!

Thanks for the writeup, Boomer. I have been waiting for it. To me, the big story from last Saturday was we finally played a good defensive game. I don't care if Virginia was a great offensive team or not. We have been making every offense look good for the whole year. And we finally play a...

This is very well done!

One other thing about the tight coverage issue. PJ was specifically referring to blitzing situations last night. The earlier quote about getting burned deep was probably in answer to a question about tighter coverage generally. PJ is saying that when we blitz successfully and make the...

Something else to add to this mix. When asked earlier in the year about playing tighter, PJ said something like "you risk getting beat deep when you do that." Last night in the defense discussion he said something kinda funny to the effect that "it's not like anything we do could make us any...

I'm in agreement with Mina about Tenuta's schemes. Kinda like the stats for defense against the run don't equate to much when a team plays us, Tenuta's preferences are not all that applicable to our style. PJ has so many tools to work with this year, I like him in a chess match with Tenuta...

I still can't believe the balance. In the spring game I saw Snoddy knocked off his feet with a slight tap from somebody. I was thinking I had never seen a college running back so easily tackled....His combination of speed and balance reminded me of Tony Hollins. Assuming C J is the real...

Don't forget the pass blocking. Not great, but so much better than in past years.

Did I see Gotsis at end a time or two?

It's all conjecture really, but I thought we could have outscored them even without the turnovers. It would have been close, though. Our d guys play as hard as they can. That's gotta count for something.

Even the blind pig...

This is kinda hard to square with PJ's earlier comment that he will not burn the redshirt for four plays a game. I have a lot of confidence in Days, but I am excited about the prospect of seeing CJ today. I guess we'll know in a few hours!

How close to ready are the DTs in the current signing class? Could they play some next fall, even if not starters?
