Recruit some defense, please! Switch to a four man front and go to man coverage. Let your athletes play. There are only so many possible recievers on any given play, so cover them individually and everyone else stop the run! This will get ugly against good running teams. Our guys are thinking too much and not reacting and playing football.

Thought I'd throw out some national rankings while they're still relatively unimportant (as in no conference games played): Offense: PPG: 33.3 (t-37th of 120 FBS schools) Rushes: 48.0 (8th) Rushing Yards: 286.3 (6th) Yards per Rush: 5.97 (t-13th) Pass Completions: 17.7 (t-64th) Pass Attempts: 25.3 (t-93rd) Completion Pct: 69.7 (9th) Passing Yards: 223.7 (t-55th) Yards per Catch: 12.66 (t-51st) Yards per Attempt: 8.83 (19th) Total Yards: 510.0 (10th) Yards per Play: 6.95 (14th) Turnover Margin: +4 (t-12th) Some good stuff here. I'd give the team an A-. Defense: Points per Game: 23.7 (t-69th) Rushes: 37.0 (t-67th) Rushing Yards: 169.7 (80th) Yards per Rush: 4.59 (84th) Pass Completions: 20.3 (t-83rd) Pass Attempts: 37.0 (t-99th) Completion Pct: 55.0 (40th) Passing Yards: 269.3 (102nd) Yards per Catch: 13.25 (97th) Yards per Attempt: 7.28 (81st) Total Yards: 439.0 (100th) Yards per Play: 5.93 (89th) The passing yardage is quite scary and the rushing defense is nothing to write home about. I'd grade this unit a D so far.
