I got the opportunity to hop on the Zoom call with HC Jeff Traylor this morning.
They've played 11-12 guys on the OL. Were missing LT and LG last week against Army. The hope is they might return at some point this week. The back-up LG was also injured during the game, MRI today. They have shifted the RT to LT.
Want to play with more tempo than last week but with so many moving pieces on the OL that might not be possible.
Frank Harris will start at QB. Traylor said he walks around like an old man, so it's always difficult to determine if he's healthy or not. Harris says he's healthy. Sapien (#14) will be the back-up.
Said Tech and UAB are the two programs you strive to be in Conference USA.
Traylor said they are committing 9 penalties a week, but it's more of a result of playing hard than lacking discipline. Committing penalties on nearly every return.
Tariq Woolen (6'5, CB) missed the Army game, will return against Tech. Playing with a cast on his hand.
Army played a ton of two-deep zone against them, so they threw it Zakhari Franklin a bunch underneath. First time all season a team hasn't pressed the LOS to stop the run.
