Up there with Cronk as player of the season so far. Need to get him more touches.

Amen, GIVE THE DEFENSE SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.

I mean, it's pretty much spot on.

Barnett could have had 2 more picks on Friday night, just drops by the Tulsa D. He's getting no protection but when things break down he just piles straight up field, even before things start breaking down, or tries to force it. He showed his resolve in the 4th quarter, coinciding with the scheme change to bring in the extra OL, but I was behind having him benched for a couple of series after halftime because it could have gotten a lot worse. How do we know what the other guys have if we don't see them attempting passes in live game action? If we continue to try the same gameplan against Houston, we will lose. Bringing in the extra OL was a start. If that yields better protection for Barnett then great. But also, the playcalling on Friday put all of the pressure on Barnett to deliver. We need to give him easier passes down the field (what the hell has happened to the good old fashioned slant??) early, get him in rhtyhm. Get our athletes in space with sweeps, more option plays, any variety on running plays aside from diving up the middle. There is nothing dynamic about the playcalling, it seems to be scripted before the game and when it inevitably starts stalling, no adjustments are made until the 4th quarter. I don' understand how it can be defended. We had 10 points after 3 quarters against TULSA.

Did anything about that performance yesterday suggest we are utilizing our talent/speed advantage? Since GA Tech, our offense has regressed completely.

100% behind this. Need to try something different with the talent we have.

Inept and totally unimaginative.

Tulsa's game with Texas looks pretty good now. Not as confident as others on this one. Just hoping to win with no more injuries.

Last year UCF. Best game we have played since Strong has been here by a healthy mile. You could argue the defense didn't play amazing but we did have some key stops that kept us in the game. If Wilcox doesnt fumble we tie that game up again, QF was absolutely unplayable that night.

Injury Report Report. 4 rbs potentially on the shelf?!? Makes you realize how lucky we've been with injuries at that position over the last few years.

Unreal. They are a victim of their own success.

Got a big 38 yard grab late in that game.

It's certainly a notable and noticeable increase from last year. Worth reporting.

Genuinely didn't know that was a Yogi quote! Of course, we could argue that his phrase is so embedded in our culture that people think that's the correct way of saying it.

Contributing to this discussion only so far as: THE TITLE OF THIS THREAD IS REDUNDANT It's a generational pet peeve that's been passed down to me and will go down to my sons.

Exactly. Gilbert now has his ferrari so where's the points?

Glad I'm not the only one. Although we heard that ALL last year that we were not showing our entire hand.

Uh Cincy/Temple will be looking at us and thinking same thing. We've hardly been setting the world alight. Think we lose to one of Cinci/Temple. Lose to Houston but BEAT UCF! 10-2

UCF 17. Aside from the fumble at the end, offense was magical and defense made enough plays for us to win.

Offensive playcalling for LONG periods yesterday was garbage. Sterlins best game since he was hired was GTech, and it's gone completely down hill since. So predictable, we throw away plays so much. We must utilize our athletes and get the guys with speed in space. No sweeps yesterday, just Big10ing it up the middle for a cloud of dust and the occasional bomb. So obvious to opposing defenses.

If he had just stayed ONE more season, we run the table and it's us in the New Year's Bowl. The offense was unstoppable in 16. Not so much last year.

GRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN! GO BULLS!

USF 45-38 Cronkrite St Felix 540

Must be it. Seemed to take away a dimension of our offense. There was some suspect playcalling, especially a sweep on 3rd and long if I recall.
