[QUOTE="Sideways, post: 347947, member: 2451"] \ Stream of consciousness with little real insight. Feel free to scroll down to other posts. A game with a different and strange feel to it. Once again, we were not efficient on offense in spite of over 400 yards rushing. It's funny, but in spite of that at no time did I think we were in danger of losing this game. Marshall is an outstanding leader as well as being the most "elusive" quarterback we have ever had. He's like that running back Virginia had a few years ago "Smoke" Mizzell (spelling?) His vision at running between defenders and slipping in and out of traffic is extraordinary. When Matthew scored his touchdown, one of the first to congratulate him was TM with a big smile on his face. This is a team with good vibes to it. The players like each other and seem to pull together. A testament to senior leadership. A lot of the improvement on defense is probably due to experience. They seem to recognize plays very quickly compared to seasons past. The safety play is outstanding. Both AJ and Corey broke for balls before they were thrown. They KNEW where the ball was going. Gray covered about a third of the field on his first interception. Pass rush was good to see. Sharrat was never completely comfortable in the pocket Speaking of UNC they definitely do NOT have a quarterback controversy. That got put to rest today on one play. Sharrat (spelling?) reminds me of Vlad. Similar build and running ability with a nice throwing motion. He has a bright future. UNC reminds me of our 2015 season. Sometimes you are just snake bit. Teams that like to throw over the middle best beware. Gray and Griffin are experienced and deadly ball hawks. For the first time, I feel like we have something cooking here. We really need Lee and Marshall (Andrew) to come back strong from injury. A backs played well I thought but we missed some blocks on the edge. Jerry and Q ran hard in relief of Kirvonte. It's funny, this team does not have quite the star power of 2014 or 2008 or 2009 but it MAY prove to be better. The offensive line might be just that much better. Special teams still needs work and I can understand Paul's frustration. I am sure that he thinks we could be much more efficient on offense and more accomplished on special teams as well. I do not know if we can beat Miami but if we can through a game without fumbling and execute on special teams we have a chance. This is not going to be popular in some quarters but I believe we should be running the triple option (and all of its variations like speed option, counter trap etc) more and probably passing a little less. That said, Ricky Jeune is playing the best football of his career. We will ultimately go as far as the line, Benson, and Marshall take us. [/QUOTE]
