It’s simple. WE ARE NOT THAT TEAM. Let it sink in fellas. Don’t know what you were expecting this year, but to think we have the talent and coaching to play elite ball week in and week out is delusional. Stop being delusional.
Our OL is average; still way too soft. When we play a team like UVA whose strength is their DL, we will be exploited.
Our LBs are average at best. When we play well coached teams like UVA who know how to take advantage of the intermediate area, we will get exploited.
Our CBs are average. When we face a well coached team with a precise passing game, we get torched.
WE ARE A TOP 15 TEAM AT BEST SO JUST ACCEPT IT.
Sadly, we are a huge improvement over last year. Not even close because we lose this game last year. But make no mistake about it, this is not our big leap year! Maybe next year with the growth of the ‘19 guys and we hold onto a strong ‘20 class who can help immediately then we can expect to dominate the lesser teams. That and upgrade our coaching staff.
But for now, adjust your expectations and appreciate the small improvement. Just get the **** Ws any way we can.
