Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 5172928, member: 5685"] I think our D is way too passive. We have been able to hold teams to FGs, but these long drives are killers. This was the 2nd of 3 games where we got killed in TOP. Nationally we are currently 59th in 3rd down D vs FBS teams. And we haven't played high quality Os. On top of that we have given up four 4th down conversions, which makes our "get off the field" D even worse (combo of 3rd and 4th). Also nationally we are tied for 74th in Redzone attempts conceded vs FBS teams. That is pretty bad. But TD % we are tied for 18th which is good. So we allow teams inside the Redzone pretty easily but it is hard to score a TD against us. Lastly we are 77th in yards per game vs FBS teams. That is pretty bad having played 3 teams that aren't very good Os and more run based. [/QUOTE]
