Having been ahead in both games this season and never having to play from behind... how will this year's bulls handle some adversity and/or having to play from behind?  How will they respond if one of our opponents jumps on the scoreboard early or takes a lead late?  I am interested to see how this plays out as it inevitably will.

I think B.J. has exhibited presence of mind and maturity.  I think Sterling Griffin is on the same plane.  With Murray and Scott, we have the wheels to get back in a game.  It's a matter of the OL and whether they can hold up.

And personally, I never want to see them playing from behind.  :)

Also see a QB for USF wearing #7 this year ... used to just see an athlete.  Now he's comfortable in the pocket and he's checking down and making quick decisions.  If he goes through his checks and the play's not there, he throws it away.  Saw it in the ND game and could barely believe my eyes.  Saw it tonight and it has to be true.  I'm really excited for this season if he can keep his consistency and not get rattled.  I completely agree that the OL will play a key role in that, they'll just need to make sure he's protected, and I now have confidence that BJ will find the open man.

but being behind, on the road, with a raucous crowd (see rutgers '07)... will the composure be there, not just from the qb position, to mount a comeback, if necessary?  Obviously, barring some miracle, we won't steamroll through this season never facing a deficit.  These thought provoking questions interest me because each team has a different dynamic about it and this year's team intrigues me with the start we've had.

The real concern that I have now is BJ's ability to look and throw downfield. He has done well with it in limited situations in the past but really hasn't had a deep route connect yet this year. His accuracy down the field is sketchy. I love the maturity in ball handling but if we get a tough game he is gonna need that quick strike ability just to keep them honest.

My Concern for USF is getting better in the redzone, touchdowns instead of field goals.

Scoring in the redzone and BJ's accuracy. Clearly his decision making has gotten better
