    I am not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. Am I missing something?
    Hopefully coach Morgen shares his changes with DC Morgan.

    That or you don’t know what the DCs name is.

    . . . either way, hopefully that was his worst performance as a Louisiana coach . . .

    I think we can compete only if the Defense knows what to do at least 2 seconds BEFORE the ball is snapped.

    IMO the fast tempo offense was a surprise and is probably more effective very early in the season when a young team is tentative at regular speed much less supersonic. I hope it does not blindside them again but we will see.
    I also have to commend the referees for getting the ball ready for play so quickly without one delay

    They may have gotten it ready quickly, but they spotted the ball terribly.

    The fast tempo offense was not a surprise. The actual team speed of odu was the surprise. Dez said specifically that they ran the same kind of offense as Tennessee in his interview with Jay last week. As soon as they came out in the split stacked wideouts I said to myself here we go. Tennessee has killed teams over the top ever since Josh Heupel got there. They are very tough to scheme for and I think they’ll give many teams fits. What frustrated me the most was the lack of safety help. It seemed like they were nowhere to be found.

    IMO the tempo was a huge surprise. The team wasn't set plenty of times. A few times they were looking to the sidelines and the ball was snapped.
