Ok...we know the many things that went wrong...what went right?
Running backs. Looked good. We dont have KD, but Dancy has that burst, and Tucker is solid. Just keep them healthy, and forget about McKnight except in short yardage situations. We'll have to lean on the run a lot in CUSA play.
Pass Defense. Way is potentially a NFL caliber receiver, and he was the only USA receiver to really do anything. Looked solid.
Run blocking. Usually pretty solid, with a few expected blips. Some really nice rushing lanes.
Edge rushing. Looked ok. We didn't have any film to work with, and the defensive scheme is boon or bust. The Orth guy taking off late in the game kinda slows edge rushing down.
Thoughts?
