Last year it was the same thing. The coaches seem to make adjustments and changes after the first couple possessions to toughen up our defense.

Not saying the Defense did not make adjustments, but Miami lost three players on their Offensive Line during the game. The Defense better look good playing against back-ups.

Re-watching the game, despite the score, that game could have been much closer. Miami lost three lineman. Had a lot of missed tackles, e.g. Warren's long TD should have been for a loss of yardage. Even though they were good on 3rd Down, they gave up some big plays, e.e. the penalty on 3rd and long, the 4th down TD.

Happy UC is 2-1, but they do not look good. Makes me wonder how different it would have been if Wiggins and Hudson were playing.
