So true.  If we could just make that first tackle, we'd be a different team.  Many times we get to the ball carrier and make first contact at or behind the line of scrimmage--if that contact turns into a tackle, we are golden, but the runner ends up getting 10-15 more yards before someone else catches him and wraps him up.  This has always been an issue, but it seems 100x worse this year.

true

Agree but throw in poor coaching.  Bulls defenders were several miles away from the play in most instances.

The 2nd and 3rd quarters the defense actually looked competent a couple times. But after they got stops the offense decided to **** it up. Still a bit from complimentary football but getting closer

The cushion was so big at times that the announcers were making comments about the USF defenders social distancing

Jesus with the poor coaching. Its poor players until we see someone of defense with a pulse.

We can't play close because we get smoked. We needed to keep plays in front of us, so they didn't score every 3 plays. Burn clock and such.

Injuries forced it until it became a noticeable problem.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.

    “This is not a broken football program by any means. It just needs to be united, to get everybody on the same page, share that same vision, and really to have that standard - best is the standard.”
