I don't normally watch the football games because frankly, it just makes me depressed how outclassed we are and undisciplined we are. And there wasn't any hope for the future. And I'm a die-hard Buffalo Bills fan, so I'm no fair weather fan.
But I tuned in last night and it gave me hope. Our team had spunk, was clearly well coached, was far more organized in game #2 of the Babers era than in any game I'd seen of the Schafer era. We aggressively attacked a top opponent and took the game to them instead of just hoping to hang around with conservative play. They had to fake injuries to slow us down, and any offensive recruit in the country would be excited to play in our system. Our defense needs work, and the final result wasn't pretty, but for the first time in YEARS, I feel like we have an identity and a plan that we can build on.
