It’s rather amazing that we’ve won as many games as we have over the past 10-15 years. We’ve won many games with less talent than our opponents.
Our coaching and conditioning program gets a lot of credit.
We’ve been exposed this season in a big way. Having the 55th most talent in the country doesn’t help. Most teams on our schedule have more 4 star players than we do. The results of that are obvious. We can’t run the ball. Out oline is overhyped. We have little or no depth at critical positions.
Our dline is average at best. With Oliver gone, it’s now below average.
How we managed to start the game three and out is beyond me. We averaged less than 90 seconds per offensive posession. Our defense was on the field for 42 minutes and the offense for 17 minutes. We averaged 3 yards per rush. No team can win a game like that. We missed a boatload of tackles because they were on the field all afternoon because the offense couldn’t sustain first downs.
