For what it is worth, the defense didn't show up until the 2nd half. Plenty of blame to go around.
 
Constructive Criticism Offense:
 
WR's are not getting open
We are pass happy, yet are going dowfield. All short stuff.
We haven't established SU football, running right at them.
Drew is throwing down on the ball, effectively lowering his trajectory, which is allowing the D Line to tip or knock down his passes. He has to let it go, he is in fear of the INT.
Play calling is too complex. We need no more than 6-10 plays out of different formations. Expand later.
 
on Defense:
Blitz crazy with soft zone coverage on a mobile QB is a killer, hence what happened to us. We need to show the blitz and drop off more often. Trust the D line to put pressure and use Dyshawn as a QB spy.
 
Special Teams: Very little improvement so far. Missed x-points, FGs, nothing much on PR's. Shake it up and put a play maker back there like Brisley. What have we got to lose. Big plays out of this group help stem the tide or give us momentum, something clearly lacking the first 2 games.
 
In hindsight, there is no quit in this team. Would have been a great year to have an early tune up game, but at least we get 2 before we start play in the ACC. Iwould stick with Drew too, but if he struggles against Wagner, pull him and see what Hunt can do with a whole half. We have been in holes in each of the last 3 seasons, and 2 of them we went on to bowls. Win the next 2 and get ready for Clemson.
