That's it. Whenever you can pressure a qb with a base 3- and 4- man rush, you're going to have a good day on pass D.
Our OL is bad.
But it's NOT YOUNG!

And their DB's played up on the receivers instead of 5-7 yds off .... that helps the pass rush out

There are no Calvin Austin’s, Demonte Coxie’s, Antonio Gibson’s, Anthony Miller’s, Darrell Henderson’s or Tony Pollard’s on this roster… just a solid group of good to average talent.

Rogers, Scates, and Lewis are playmakers. We just aren't finding creative enough ways to get them involved.

They are good college players but they are not pros…
Silverfield has put together a solid roster but he has yet to bring in elite playmakers to compliment Seth.

This is a big part of it. There are simply no gamebreakers at the skill positions. They are solid but have a hard time separating. Combine that with poor pass protection and it is tough to get the passing game going.

While we have had better offensive outings for sure especially just before and after halftime, your stats will be down when you get basically 21 defensive points

In the old days we used to be thrilled with two pick sixes for the good guys. Now it seems as though those exciting plays are used against the team. Kind of weird

The yeah but if we play like this next week we will lose crowd will be here, and sooner or later they will be right, but if you predict a loss every game of course sooner or later you will be right

Beat Navy, yeah but keep playing like that we will lose
Beat Arkansas State, yeah but keep playing like that we will lose
Beat North Texas, yeah but keep playing like that we will lose
Beat Temple… and so on?

Sooner or later we may lose and then without recognizing the irony they will say told you so

MIMI is usually correct.

Don't think in game help is anywhere near as important as insights at the practices before the game. If I was a UNT coach, I'd be picking Gunnell's brain all week rather than waiting until game day. We had a similar situation in high school when one of our lineman had transferred from another conference school. When we played that team, he was a fountain of knowledge about every player on the opposing team including how to handle certain players. I think one comment he made was that one lineman had a problem with one of his feet and that our players should make an effort to step on that foot as often as possible. Maybe it was a knee problem. Not sure...it's been a long time. Hey....it's high school in 1960. We went 7-3 that year.
