Anyone notice that ECU defense for the most part sat back and didn't let us beat them deep. They allowed us to eat up yards and let us shoot ourselves in foot. It was a little frustrating thinking we could have scored 60...but they did a good job. We had to work a little harder to score.

FSU did that too. The difference between FSU and ECU is that FSU had the athletes to slow down our run game, bubble screens, and jet sweeps. ECU couldn't do that. We really just shot ourselves in the foot with penalties, turnovers, and mental errors. UConn shouldn't be able to keep up with our speed even if they try to sit back. We should eat them up with jet sweeps and bubble screens if they play off as we should be able to make them miss in space.

If teams are going to do that we really have to be more disciplined.

I have no problems killing teams with a thousand cuts and keeping our defense fresh in the meantime.

556 yds and 38 points .... I'm good with opponents game planning that on a weekly basis.

Our defense needs to be prepared to stop the run up the middle.  I feel like its Groundhog's Day every week when I say the same thing.  Maybe if I say it enough some how, some way it will be implemented.  We need to be prepared to stop Newsome and the run offense.

Two numbers will be key for defense success "4-3"

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
