We are great at compiling yards but really poor at taking shots and playing aggressive with a lead. The urgency to step on someone's throat isnt there. We protected a 20-13 lead for most of the 4th quarter. The playing fast thing went away with that 7 point lead. We refused to run the ball in the first half and yes,  we ran it decently in the second half which was great to see. That said, we didnt aggressively go for that 2 td lead. We actually were working on the clock with 14:00 in the 4th. Frustrating bc folks, we are better than Pitt all day.

Alot of GREAT tid bits:

1. The Dline has been great, specifically the interior line with Slayton and mount McKinley, we have held down the los.

2. I have bad mouthed the T2, but love the way all 11 guys are flying to the ball. More edge pressure and less guys running free and these young guys will play with most teams.

3. Still too many penalties and dumb mistakes, especially 2 substitution fouls outta time outs!!

4. The oline is improving in both run and pass blocking.

5. Butler and pierce are weapons.

6. We ARE FINALLY USING THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD,  notice the open real estate anyone? Wrs,  pierce, and that wheel route to strick that would have been a td if ED stepped into the throw.
