Our problems are so many I don't know where to start.  I actually think that's more alarming.  If it were 1 thing, let's say injuries, or defense it would be a little more settling since you could sit back and say ok this is where we need to improve.  But are breakdowns have been so scattered, game to game, it definitely has me starting to look in a direction.

Let's examine.

Villanova - In all I think most would agree, a pretty poor performance (and this is week 1 when we are fully healthy).  I will give offense an excuse since Hunt got ejected, but we also had a special teams breakdown including a punt return and missed field goals.  I'll blame ST's in this one, even though their qb killed us.

CMU - Defense was outstanding.  Offense was good, but showed us signs of what would come with our failure to score inside the red zone, settling for 3 field goals against a severely over matched opponent.

Maryland - Defense got lit up. Got hurt by big plays.  Turnovers also a huge problem.

Notre Dame - Defense was good in there severely bend not break philosophy.  Offense was totally inept.

Louisville - Offense was putrid.  Defense got beat by a 2nd string Freshman qb who was also missing their all-american WR

FSU - Defense couldn't get a stop against their 2nd string skill position guys.

Wake - Dominated defensively, but it was offenses turn to struggle once again inside the red zone.

Clemson - Defense was great, but offense couldn't do much.

NC ST -  Offenses
