Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
Despite the loss I really like what I saw today:
Gunnell >>>>>>>>>>> Tate
Blackwell & Lopez are big upgrades on the DL
Brightwell is bringing it his Senior year
The OL looks solid
Things I don't like:
We don't have any quality LB's
We are running a 3-4 defense in spite of not having any quality LB's
We don't have a receiver with separation type speed (I wonder what Gunnell would do with a Northcutt and a Gronkowski to throw to)
We don't have any decent blocking TE's

Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
What a great game though for this team. I’m not a fan of moral victories but I feel like they can build on this.
Lots of stuff to work on. Run defense, Gunnell taking less sacks, pass rush, receivers getting separation, etc.

Feh. Better than predicated but. .. feh.
Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
Yeah, not even a little bit upset. I expected a humiliating, impotent, lopsided loss. Our transfers on D...that's more upsetting.

Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
That last play was some bullshit though. Way to just give up and not let the kid who already threw the ball 55+ yards in the air one time do it again.

USC is the luckiest team on the planet.

Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
Yeah! Moral victories suck but damn, these guys played their hearts out.
Gunnell is going to be a great one.
Defense! Good sure tackling and our D line brought it!
Much, much better than I thought.

This is how I feel as well. Good game Cats!

Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
We don’t have the personnel in the backfield to blitz in that situation. Not against a team with the size and talent of a USC.
It is what it is.

Yup. Just happy I actually had a reason to watch a game from start to finish. Obviously I wish we pulled it off but that was a pleasant surprise.

Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
What did they do the first 55 minutes that worked?
Certainly agree in the talent level, but I really fucking hate the prevent defense.
Any time the UA starts continuing to rush 3 the game is already over.

Note I don't believe in moral victories.
Once the UA decided to rush 3 the game was over.

Re: Game 1, vs USC (2020)
I get it. I hate the prevent too.
But when you blitz you leave your DBs & LBs with no help against bigger and faster receivers.
What we really needed was to run some clock on our last offensive possession. We scored with too much time left.
