Defense dominated. No question about it. Offense struggled all night. Mullens, Ito, and Isaiah Jones only played about 10-15 plays each, so that definately contributed. Defense may be really good, or the offense may have just been bad. Worried about RB depth big time. Our 4th RB is walk on Collin Kilcrease. Looks like he's beat out Andre Hale, Hale probably gets redshirted. The staff has some serious decisions to make about whether to redshirt 3 or 4 freshmen on defense. We have depth at those spots but the freshmen have been impressive.

Eagle9, appreciate the update. Defense has been coming on just need it to translate into game day. Offense concerned me in the spring, sounds like a carry over.

I'm not gonna stress too much about offense when our top skill players weren't in very much, but they will definitely need to start clicking quickly. Very excited that our defense may be special this season. Been a long time since we've seen them be really dominant.
Love the info and insight you provide about practices, Eagle9.

no doubt...it's refreshing to get macro specifics....
