It's on ESPN News, you should still be able to get it through WatchESPN.

Played better in second half.  Defense still impressive. Just think what a complete game by both sides would look like.

**** Charlie and his good guy ********. We're a G5 team. This bottom-feeder P5 team put up 14 points in garbage time because they were still throwing the ball with sub-2 minutes left. Get Kean some red zone reps and put up some more points.

wut he sed

I dont even think Willie would have done that to Lovie

Lovie was the one instructing his team to throw it with less than 2 minutes to go.

Wow according to msn sports 378 yards rushing and 304 passing. These are numbers like we had against Navy last year.

47-23 is a good number, should get us back around #19, but I still don't feel very confident.

It's like they have no fire - they're winning on talent alone, but the discipline and enthusiasm are missing.

We have to clean this up for conference play

[Buller64]

Defense gave up 67 yards rushing and 287 passing 354 total yards, that's about average for a defense and that includes the extended garbage time.

Oline change a difference maker

most of that was 3 big plays, including 1 76 yarder in garbage time.  I'll take it.  Tackling & secondary coverage is MUCH better.  But we will play MUCH better teams, soon.
