You won't see another even close to being as bad the rest of the year. I'm not kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defense played much better with solid fundamentals and limited mistakes. i wish we could have gotten some of the dropped turnovers but that happens. Our defense is still very young at LB and CB so give it time. We need to develope experience and depth before they will be on par to our standards at USF. We gave up 171 yards on the ground to a one dimensional team. I thought the defense sucked today all things considered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good enough to win. Like I said, we are very young at key positions and lack a lot of experience and depth on defense. It will take the entire season for them to really start clicking and improve a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They returned all five starters from last year and their OL is the most experienced position on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LG - RS Sr C - RS Jr who broke his leg in the first conference game of last year. This was his 2nd game back from injury RG - RS Sr who played LT the last two years RT - RS Fr in his second game ever. Sometimes we replaced him with a senior JUCO transfer who had a season-ending foot injury vs. ND last year. I have no idea where you managed to pull that tidbit of info from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really needed him for depth. O line was better too with returning players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
