Positives & Negatives of 2015 Season in Descending Order

[BeatSC]

Positives:

- Kizer
- Procise
-Adams
-Fuller (no surprise there)
- Brown
-Newsome
-Farley
-Hunter

Negatives:
-Defense
-BVG
-Schmidt
-Russell
-Robinson
-TE production
- Red Zone playcalling
-turnovers
-finishing games defensively strong
-lack of turnover production from D
-lack of QB containment on pass rush
- giving up the big plays and trick plays
-injuries but we had enough depth to easily overcome in every game.
- NBC coverage.
- Kelly 2 pt decision making
-'Green uniforms were gross
-Playing down or up to competition
- lack of killer instinct

You wouldn't think we won 10 games from this list. I didn't give kudos to the offensive line , Day or Smith because they were expected to play even better than they did. A lot of close but no cigars on so many plays for this D and not enough manhandling by the oline when so many are expected to play on Sundays.

Would add Yoon to positives. Also, offense as a whole should be under positives. Say what you will about the Red Zone offense (it needs work) this team consistently put up points and moved the ball. Even with a terrible day in the red zone they still put up 36 points - that's plenty enough in games like this.

This is such a tough loss. Freshman scoring all over the place... the future is bright. We have a big bowl game coming up. I'm hoping it's vs. IOWA or OSU in the Fiesta Bowl. ND deserves a NY6 bowl. This offense can score on anybody, period.

Tillery and Yoon not on the positive list anywhere? To me, they were pleasant surprises in the freshman class.
