We need to get some sort of points off of this TO.

Still would run the ball more as TSU just looks gassed already on D. Pound them into submission. It's hard on a back to just come in for a play or two. Let's get Jackson going and let the OL have some fun

The good:
GT has exceeded my expectations in this game. He’s made (mostly) good decisions, taken care of the ball, and been accurate on most of his throws. He’s been good on the run as well. Despite not having a ton of live reps under his belt he looks like a veteran Big Sky WB
O-line has looked solid.
Receivers - only a few dropped balls and lots of different players with watches.
Special teams looks much improved. Solid punting, kickoffs, and coverages for the most part. Yes we had the missed XP but frankly it looked like he just slipped on the wet turf.
+1 on TO margin.
The bad:
Way too many big plays surrendered by the D. The first quarter in particular was terrible with plays way out of position on several plays. They did seem to settle in some in the second quarter though.
At least one trip into the red zone with no points. I guess we missed a FG as well so maybe kicking is not as improved as I previously mentioned.
Tackling.
LB’s look slow to the point of attack. I figured that position would be a weakness this year. You can tell there are young players in there.
