Thanks. I saw only the 4th quarter last week due to some other commitments. Among many glaring things is that on multiple series the first down play had the Temple DBs playing10 yards off the slot receivers. That’s assuming they were covering them at all because a couple plays it just looked like we had 2 WRs on a side with just one DB. And we never once passed it to them. The coverages would be different on second and third down. Which you would expect.

It will always be too soon.

But Q is not the QB anymore.

If we start passing into the middle of the field the knights will be in trouble. Because their DC will have keeled over from a heart attack.

Some people said this about Louisville back in 2005. eff all that. Root for the Bulls. Everything else is secondary on Friday.

CCS may move on from Gilbert. But I think there’s no chance he gives King, or any other first time coordinator, the job if he thinks his job may be on the line.

Defense allowed 13 points. Offense gave up 7. Special Teams gave up 7. Temple had gotten the offense going the 2 weeks prior so overall good defensive effort.

What? I’m partial to guys who take over a record breaking offense and say “I didn’t watch any of the tape from last year.”

That’s not true. We now have 2 variations. Up the middle, up the middle, deep pass down the sideline, punt. Pass to the far hash, Pass to the other far hash, up the middle, up the middle. Turnover on downs.

No, your RB is the good but not great Tice.

Imagine you have 3rd and 3 at the opponent 20 with 2minutes left. At home. Do you run up the middle with the RB or put the ball in the hands of QF on the edge? I know what the OC did.

People at the 7-on-7 camp.

You love your wife like you love BK? Admirable.

Wonder what the biggest swing between 2 teams is from one year to the next. We won by 36 last year. only chance we’ll have is to keep Armstead under some semblance of control. Probably unlikely given the run defense to date.

So we’ll keep playing a converted DL (Reaves), converted safety (McGee), and freshman (Boyles) and hope for the best.

2010 game at Cincinnati. 2 game losing streak with a first year coach and a bad feeling that it would get worse. We won 38-30. Of course we fired that guy 2 years later because it got much worse.

Maybe. If we were South Alabama then definitely.

Pretty sure Houston offense is from same family as ours. Maybe distant cousins.

When you realize that Sterling’s perfect offense is one designed to pick up 3.4 yards per play and results in any points this makes sense. Drive 70 yards and kick a field goal but run 20 plays and pick up 6 first downs? That’s a win for him.

Found the above on the below website. This link shows that of the 160 or so teams that have ever been ranked we have been ranked the 75th most times. http://collegepollarchive.com/football/ap/app_total.cfm#.W9PPFxopCfA

Ewing theory possibly at play? Or maybe for us it’s the Justin Roper theory? Or the Zach Collaros theory?

I’m pretty sure we average a chop block a week. We had one Saturday. EIther Atterbury or Cecil.

We’re starting 3 freshmen on the OL. We’re not recruiting 5 star linemen. We’re not reloading there. We’re building on the fly.

If we win it will be in a shoot out in which case the defense still sucks. Or in a low scoring affair in which case the offense still sucks. But if we los ethen everybody sucks.
