[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 906899, member: 1776"] IMO the defense was about a C last night. Yes, UVA did not score alot, but this is a bad UVA offensive team and it had over 400 yds of offense and frankly shot themselves in the foot alot. They dropped an easy TD pass, they missed a chip shot FG as well as a second longer FG and an XP. They had a slew of penalties and quite a few drops and 3 TO's. The defense got very little pressure on Armstrong - he simply was inconsistent, missing some easy throws and also having the WR's drop catchable passes. A good offensive opponent would have put up 30 easy last night. Our O was bad with Sims (24 plays, 81 yds, 5 1st downs, 0 points) and got worse after he left. We had the one good drive with Gibson in the 2nd quarter (9 plays, 70 yds, FG). The second half was tough as GT had awful field position for alot of that half and frankly without a threat of the QB run our rushing attack is pretty poor. We avg 1.5 yds per rush and even if you take out the sack yardage it was only about 3 yards per rush. Gibson played well on the FG drive and had that great 11 yd run where he leaned into the defender. But he clearly got shell shocked as the game went on. Clearly an F. Special teams was about a C as well. We had the one punt partially blocked, but it actually rolled for 42 yds - got lucky there. We had the blocked punt we caused. Made our only FG, missed an XP. UVA had a couple of nice returns, including a 22 yd punt return and another for 10. Our offense is really bad. We now have 6 TD's in 6 games against FBS opponents. We have 3 TD's in the red zone against FBS opponents (13 yd pass to Jenkins against Clemson, 18 yd run by Sims against Pitt, 18 yd pass to McCollum against Duke). Sims is currently 101st in QBR among FBS QB's and 13th out of 14 ACC QBs (ahead of only BC's QB). Our RB room isn't even close to what it was last year (and we don't really play to their strengths much - why do we run Hall between the tackles?), the WR's are mediocre at best and the OL is one of the worst i've seen at GT. GT is averaging 13 ppg against FBS opponents (12.5 if you exclude the OT FG, and of course 6 pts came in the INT TD as well). If we hadn't made the switch to Stewart attempting FG's (8-8) we might be avg less than 10 ppg against FBS teams. [/QUOTE]
