Try something other than Mack up the middle for a yard on first down?

What a novel idea

Where were the trick plays?  Same old plays but with more passing.

If we are a running team we have to establish the run.   In order to establish the run we have to, you know,  run the ball.

We they stuff us it is not always a bad call.  

Why does everyone think ECU is beatable?   I haven't watched them play all year.

Not sure what there is to vent about. This is the same USF performance we have seen against other quality opponents. I'd expect that trend to continue for the next few weeks until the UCF game:

  • East Carolina - expect ECU to be favored at home and at night
  • Temple - will we find the end zone against the Owl defense?
  • Cincinnati - our soft defense will be shredded by the Bearcat offense
  • UCF - The Knights are already planning their spring game. If the Bulls lose CWT is gone.

 

Soft defense? What games are you looking at? We are 59th ranks in total defense, 53rd ranked red zone defense (out of 23 attempts only 10 touch downs scored from other teams) , we ranked 23rd for tackles for loss, We also ranked 29th in team sacks. Our defense may allow a lot of yards, but we make the stops when we need to.

our defense is not soft. The 4-2-5 is a mismatch against the triple option. We held the offensive juggernaut that is Memphis to 24 points. We will beat back ECU and Cincinnati just as easily.

Defense got a key takeaway in the second half against a navy team which doesnt lose the ball much and the offense did what with it.  Players have to execute.
