Defensive Rankings after Non P5 Opponents

You missed one.

128th out of 130th on defending 3rd down conversions. That is our biggest problem in my opinion. We need to get off the **** field and let the offense do it's thing.

Just from the first two games, it looks like we were all wrong and the offense is actually better than the defense.

I'll throw one positive in here to counter-act the horrible statistic above. Our wide receivers look really good and we don't even have Richards back yet. Harley and Irvin in particular have impressed me. I am ready to eat crow now and walk back my comments last year saying I wasn't a huge fan of Harley's game. He looks like the real deal.

Im so confused. How the **** do we regress so much in an off season? Why do we not want to jam recivers? Why do we insist on having our DE's covering WR's? Why is our d line not getting their hands up taking away the quick pass?

We lost 4 starters in the secondary.
We replaced them with guys that count take their spots and a guy from the citadel and one from a juco who we didnt recruit out of high school.

They dont have confidence in those guys yet in the back end..and legitimately are doing No frio d where they are cool giving up the short stuff

Dam..tell you what, recruiting blunders are no excuse
 
OP deserves a down vote, because Diaz has a couple of dozen games of history with us - and that history is pretty good. Some things have been worrying, but it's premature to make wholesale judgments at this point.

Wow. [MENTION=1834]Marcelo2988[/MENTION] and [MENTION=608]MedleyCane[/MENTION] on the call. WilforkHOF = FullyEricht. This is definitely not WolforkHOF's first time here but how did you guys know who it is?
Click to expand...

It is not that hard to figure him out based on his trolling agenda.
He was giving Aranda virtual rim jobs when Richt was looking for a DC, and when Richt hired Diaz he opened a "Fire Mark Richt"
thread because he claimed it was important to get started ASAP.
Then he doesn't reappear last season for some "strange" reason.
 
Dominated the second half lol, as Toledo went up and down the field the entire half. Thankfully their WRs couldn't catch or it would've been a 40 burger, easy. At no point was there not any wr running wide open during the entire game.

I swear some of you don't watch the games or have your head so far up the coaches *** that you can't complain about obvious issues. That's two games against trash where we couldn't stop the opponent.

Everything is fine.
 
A little worried but we have yet to lose a game bc of this defense. Would say the opposite for dorito
 
Man, you guys have memory issues. Manny was torched but Cutcliffe last season. Thier QB was almost perfect. You guys better wake the **** up. What you gonna say when Duke humps us up and down field all day?

What do you suggest we Cane fans do?
Run to the most secure safe space and curl up in the fetal position?

The 2nd half was 42-14. Nobody likes the way we're playing on the defensive side right now, but don't go full ******.

57th in Scoring Defense
73rd in Total Defense

For comparison, Alabama and Clemson, the two best teams in FBS and the likely opponents in the champ game again, are top ten in both categories, after playing multiple P5 opponents.

For more comparison, the year Gorlden was fired for being so miserable defensively that we couldn't stomach it, we were:

77th in scoring defense
69th in total defense

And for a final comparison, Diaz in year two at Texas:

72nd in scoring defense
68th in total defense

If you were crying about No D and his atrocious scheme, dropping DEs into coverage and soft zone, then you are a complete hypocrite if you aren't doing the exact same thing for Mannito.

Al, is that you?!?!?

I miss you, call me.

I'll bring over the donuts and we can spoon :)

Love, 'onofrio

seriously, dude ... the pass defense has laid a sh*t sandwich, but let's wait out the next 2 games, and then we can talk
