I can't recall a worse D at any school. I have no faith we will get a stop and I am only left with the hope that the other team messes up.

The crazy thing is that Colgate, Louisville, USF all had the dropsies. We have been lucky that things have not been worse. Eventually our luck will run out.

That being said USF only put up 38 points today offensively. That should have been good enough to make it a game.

The biggest issue I had today was the 4th down play, and Dino was to blame as well. USF went up to the line quickly and our kids were waiting for a call from the sidelines. They then seemed confused and had trouble getting lined up. When USF was getting ready to snap the ball we had no one on the entire right side of the D. This is right in front of Dino, he should have recognized that and called TO. It was obvious before the snap that we were . I HATE taking a TO in the 2nd half. I HATE taking a TO on D. In this case it was the right move. It wouldn't have been to prevent a 1st down but a big play, which is what happened. The USF coaches had to be laughing after this play. I am sure there was more than one player who was not lined up properly, but the coaches need to recognize that.

There were positives on D

-The DL played relatively well. They got more pressure today than the previous games. 
-I really like what I have seen from Ellison this year.
