The score of our game was very deceiving. There were a lot of warts hidden in the score. We played a very inconsistent game against a weak Div II team. They jumped out to a 3-0 lead and we didn't even tie the score until about 10 minutes left in the second quarter. We didn't go ahead until about the 5 minute left mark in the half. We couldn't hardly complete a pass in the first quarter. Our line gave up about 3 or 4 sacks to this Div II team. I think we finally wore them down in the 3rd quarter and our offense showed a few signs of life.
On defense, the stats looked pretty good but they didn't have much of a running game so we could pretty much ignore that. I think your backs and running game are a little better than Tarleton's. Plus, we have a patchwork secondary (which was young to start with) right now due to injuries and suspensions.
We still have a new coaching staff, Qb's trying to adapt to a new offense, and an offensive line that is thin in depth and still learning to play with each other.
You have more scholarships than us and therefore more depth of talent.
And your guys are probably pretty well ____ed off right now and I'm afraid we are going to catch the brunt of their anger. You shouldn't have too much trouble with us (this is not the 1970's anymore) and I just hope we can keep from getting blown out.
