I agree that P. Thomas is playing beneath his experience level.  If Eskridge can somehow get through that NCAA red tape I wonder if he would show more maturity as a true freshman than P. Thomas.  Unfortunately, I have very little confidence that the bureaucrats at the NCAA will do their job anytime soon.  Big disappointment seeing P. Thomas make the same mental mistakes.

And I agree with everything else you mentioned.  The defense has many issues, but I expected the defense to struggle early this year.  And even with all the problems, as you said, in the end the the defense only gave up 14 points.

But the offense scoring 21 points is a problem.  SU had 300 yards last week and scored 36 points against an ACC team.  This week they had more yards but fewer points.  SU will face pressure every game until they can consistently capitalize on it.  Bailey needs to find his comfort zone, and I think it might be time to give the rock to AAM.  Those yards after contact that DC3 used to pick up are sorely missed at this point.  When Nassib sees the blitz he needs to understand where the advantage is and take it.  And the Oline and some of the backs need to do a better job picking up the pressure.

The SU fans need to show up.
