Lots to clean up.

Encouraged by the offense for the most part
Discourage by the defense for the most part

Angeli wasn't the problem, he played well I thought, as did the offense on the whole. But on the other hand there were several drives that could have been extended with a mobile QB. Going to have to extend plays against good opponents.

Would anyone have Fran on the hot seat after this game? It could be getting warm, hearing that chip kelly might be available

 

[Comstock44]

More Willis, less Nixon. But I guess coach’s son is going to get his PT.

Sounds like you are the dumbest person alive

 

[TommyA13]

If this defense can be even mediocre at best, this could be a really good team. But I’m not sure that’ll happen with Robinson as the DC.

Joking if you are

I don’t hate Nixon getting snaps in some circumstances, but yes you are right.

These cushions are depressing.

Willis had 23 carries to Nixon’s 9 but way to push a narrative.

It's hard to evaluate our team through a critical lens after playing Tennessee. I think Angeli showed a lot of poise. Yasin is a beast. Tennessee's pass rush was scary. Our team has a lot of heart.

UConn will pay.

Dead serious, have to be proactive in today’s modern landscape. What’s his buyout?

UCONN looks great, they could bury us

Last year LQA could do it all.

Run
Catch
Pass block.

It now takes 2 RB's to do what he used to do.

Nixon generated 62 yards on 11 touches. Not awful.

If you give Willis all of Nixon's workload, he gets 33 touches and will never last the season.

Willis is awesome. Nixon is good too.

Ridiculous

Biggest takeaway is the effort was certainly there. The kids battled throughout.

Fire Robinson is very premature. But he certainly needs to improve.. a lot. Was hoping his scheme would be better this year. My question is - what is our scheme on D? What are we trying to take away from the offense? I've been asking this same question since last season.

Offense and Angeli looked solid against an elite defense and will improve as the season progresses. Good foundation to work with there. Willis looks like a stud, should be getting higher percentage of the carries going forward. He's our bell cow.

- Was not a fan of this game the second it was announced. Tenn home game, they are a really really bad matchup with a young team.

- Huepal or whatever his name is had an answer to pretty much everything. In fact, I found that qb very average but in that scheme he should be serviceable. He ran circles around E Rob.

- I thought the ball came out nicely for Angeli. To me he was fine, if you look around the country QBs generally struggle in the first week in terms of errors.

- It will be good to get home. Let’s hope some of those organizational errors and penalties are week 1 things.

- Willis looked great.

- Cook looked great.

- We have a massive talent issue on defence even beyond Erob calling. There just isn’t a lot of dudes back there. One thing I do think there is some semblance of talent there in the corners, Samuel had a rough debut, but I’d prefer to just live and die on the blitz and let the corners sink or swim.

- Way too passive at the line.

- Don’t throw in the towel and be a Debbie downer. Assuming everything checks out these next two weeks this is excellent practice for Clemson. Let’s see.

Willis got plenty of burn and production. Love him, but this is the kind of division of plays that will keep him healthy and fresh longer into the season.

I honestly don't think he has a system. There's no situational awareness at all. Rush with the line only, provide too much cushion and pray.

Ridiculous

CHIP can develop the right culture none of this dart nonsense

Sure but anyone could look great against Central Connecticut State
