3rd and 9 and were playing 12 yards off the ball? If Wake can throw the ball around like this it's gonna be a long season.

Yup. Same old. No confidence that we can make a stop on third and long.
 
Where are those posters who, post Rhode Island, proclaimed that this defense is amazing?! Rhode Island! That being said, Wake clearly has a few playmakers on offense. Their frosh RB and a couple of their receivers are NICE.

Lucky to be only behind by 1. Getting out-played so far.
 
Our offense on 3rd down is horrendous. We have only scored on wake turnovers. Need to get the freshman qb more poised and let the running game open up
 
This is the thing I was most concerned with. They are playing way off of the receivers and their tackling is horrible.

I also think their QB is now reading the blitz calls.

I think it's the bench as well.
It's like they can read our defende

They were called "negative" and ostracized.
 
can't play any tight man coverage at all we got burned once and stopped trying to play tight.

the wake quarterback is good he can throw on target but give him some tight coverage to make him second guess his throw. atleast make it tough for him. if you get burned deep atleast you are trying to play them tight and aggressive and giving the pass rush some time to get there. That last drive our pass defense was giving them easy 12 yard pass after 12 yard pass.

Little pressure on the QB and the receivers all have 5-10 yard cushions.
 
LOL, it really was a tale of two games. Quarters 2 and nearly to the end of 3 SUCKED. Then the lights went on - and it was all glorious. I was thinking Shafer was going to be fired midway through the 3rd quarter. Now? Hearts and rainbows. Great being a fan of the Orangemen.
