Amazing how we have 90% of these pages of how bad this team is. But when the defense starts playing ALOT better in this 3rd quarter and we're up 20 points. There's nothing...

The offense looks good with minor things to fix and the defense is really young playing with a new d coord.

We're also playing a garbage team.

Truth: This defense sucks. It is historically bad. Everyone involved with it has been a cataclysmic failure. It's like 11 Joe Schmidt's are running around out there.

Is that better?

It's Syracuse so I don't think it is wise to jump to conclusions that the defense... or offense... is doing wonderfully. But at least the defense has improved as the game has went on. At this point, any improvement should be seen as a good thing as long as it is kept in perspective.

Cuse has dropped a few passes in the 2nd half that hurt them. We are getting better pressure though.

Three score lead, defense defends two short fields with zero points allowed. Can't complain with that quarter.
