  1.  

    The 3RB set gave Cuse and UConn trouble. Put Q back there too and all 4 guys can run the ball without much drop off. It's basically what some where asking for last year when we couldn't throw the ball. I like it, good call coaching wise to implement it in the O. DJ has also become "Mr Do It All" this year. I have enjoyed how they have fit him in, he has some talent for sure.  

     

    edit* meant to quote Jup but some how ended up with Skin. *shrugs* 

  2. I like how Johnson and Tice get more touches in the 4th quarter when the opponent's D is tired. Those guys hit people in the face. 

    You can see it too. They go looking for the contact and run hard. It seems like Tice bounces off of two people every time he gets the ball.

  3. We are actually 18th in the nation in rushing yards per game. at 225 a game.

    61st in yards per game at 410.

    109th in passing yards a game at 188 (yes that includes passing behind the LOS :D)

    most interesting part is 72 in points per game at 28.8

    So, yes the passing game needs improvement. Yes the play calling has been conservative. However, it is easily the best production we have seen in the CWT years. I read on twitter ( Joey Knight I think) that at the current rate this offense will be top 5 in USF history.

     

  4. They actually had 27k attendance  (their oc stadium holds 30k), and 17k in their 2 home games this year. This is a Sun Belt team who has done nothing but lose for the past 50 years. Currently on a 14 game losing streak, and yet they are able to do better than us in attendance in some cases. Sounds like they at least have a watchable offense....they score more than 17 at least. We had 14k at our previous game, and that was against one of the better teams in our conference. No way Harlan can afford to keep Taggart too much longer. We may see an attendance of under 10k this season. I wonder if we can afford the likes of Doug Meacham. He will definitely be in demand, and we probably couldn't afford him. 

    They run some version of the triple option out of the pistol. Think Air Force.

  5. We had our share of humble pie.

    They laughed.

    We said "hey its a rough patch, we were good once and will get back"

    They laughed more.

    We said "hey, could happen to you, take it easy"

    They put up a billboard in our city.

    Then... finally... they lose miserably. 

    So no, absolutely I have zero sympathy and am enjoying every moment of this because it is too long coming to a fan base that got way too cocky. 

    ALSO Bonus points: each time a UCiF fan says how they were good once - when that was supposedly not relevant when we used to say it -  you get one point. Tally em up.
