Grier had a crazy stat line and the safeties were making plays against the option and in the secondary. Bad: pressure from DL Ugly: Passing game I’ll edit this and say the passing game wasn’t ugly, it was just pretty quiet. Like a Prius: quiet and efficient.

RBs were good and show a lot of depth. The mediocre: QB play was efficient 18 -25 1TD no interceptions McCloud QB rating 125.1, Johnson 125.4. No long passes. Not sure if that is because of the pieced together offensive line, passing philosophy, or lack of ability. The bad: Usf does not have a backup kicker. The punter was doing the place kicking. The ugly: ESPN coverage was bad. Not sure if the commentary was watching the same game I was. First down line was off noticeably, once it was slanted, a second time it was moving. "Crowd noise" was delayed and not matching the play on the field. Seriously, no crowd reaction after a USF touchdown? Makes me wonder if the first down marker person was also responsible for crowd noise and how much they had to drink with dinner.

The defense appears to be further along then most of expected... Vincet Davis in the Hybrid db/lb position (rebirth of the shark positon) was a great call by the staff The bad: McIndecision (looking forward to seeing more snaps from Noah) The ugly: the broadcast was a s÷=× show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
