Message: [QUOTE="syracuse95, post: 5486054, member: 860"] I get what you're saying, but I'm concerned. We had, objectively, some defensive talent last year. But we were ranked #122 in YPP allowed at 6.5 YPP, and that was against a really soft schedule. Obviously we played a tough opponent yesterday (and the weekend's games aren't even over yet), but through last night's games only Ohio and Missouri State have allowed more YPP than us. Albany allowed fewer yards per play against Iowa than we did against Tenn. Nevada allowed fewer YPP against PSU than we did against Tenn. I get that we need more defensive talent, but our defense shouldn't be this bad even for the talent level we have. [/QUOTE]
