Doesn't this feel EXACTLY like last year's game against N. Texas?

Yes, it's like deja freaking vu. I hate our defense.

47-36. Is this the only game we win this year? If we hold on?

TS just scored. 36 -47 with 2: 41 remaining. Defense is really in need of big time help.

Tech

Postby Get_Some_Ponies » Sat Sep 06, 2008 10:07 pm

From ESPN...maybe there's hope.

Containing the Wolf Pack's vaunted "Pistol" offense will prove challenging to Tech's defense that showed surprising struggles in a 49-24 victory over Eastern Washington last week. The Red Raiders were singed for 341 passing yards in the opener and rank 100th nationally in pass defense.

Those struggles came after much hype before the season about how improved their defense would be with eight returning starters and an influx of talented junior college players along the defensive line.

As long as we score 1 more point than the opponent, the end result will be good. I just hope we can find a way to do that more than once this year. JJ & Co can keep working on recruiting bigger, stronger, faster and more athletic guys to play on the defensive side of the ball in future years.
