No great win, either, but winning what we should and two of those games we were underdogs, mistakenly, but still dogs. King of the hill doesn't have to be the best or biggest kid, just the one at the top of the hill till someone knocks him off.

Chuck Heater has Marshall's defense playing at a high right now. Marshall is allowing 17.4 points per game, they have a shutout and have allowed 3 points in two of their four games. We have 3 players ranked in the top 10 in different defensive stats, Chris Jackson in INTs and INT return yards, Ryan Bee in Pass break ups and Brandon Drayton in Passes defended.

I don't know if it was the wet ball, the humidity or what but I seen way to many over thrown balls from Litton Saturday. If it was just him over throwing, if he gets that corrected then we can and will be dangerous.

Again what was one of our weakest units last year, may just be our strongest this year in our secondary. All of our red shirt freshman and true freshman have grown up and the addition of red shirt freshman Brandon Drayton and Jaquan Yulee have been great. That with the move of Ryan Bee from DB to DL has improved the defense 10 fold.
