Over the middle pass coverage

Post by GiddyUp »

Just simply terrible most of the year. Depleted secondary, poor safety coverage? What gives - I just haven't watched closely and was impossible to see on the Rice computer feed. I can't imagine what Tulsa will do to us. Jay Scott and Randolph seem very lost back there.

Mediocre awareness, athleticism and tackling ability. They can't do anything unless a terrible QB throws the ball right to them.

We have been undersized at safety for June's entire era. You have to have bigger faster guys back there.

tight ends can be dangerous weapons, but we wouldn't know about that

we have to stay in base defense because of a lack of decent players at nickel corner.

Has been an issue for the last 5 years.
