One last thing - on a Saturday when some genuinely WEIRD sh*t went down in CFB (Central Michigan's untimed down, Georgia nearly losing to Nicholls, Clemson in a dogfight with Troy, Arky beating TCU, etc.) at least we didn't have that drama hanging over us. On a night when our QB played as poorly as he has in two years, we won by 4 TDs and more importantly, came away relatively healthy.
P.S. - I really want to beat App State by 60.
That + we didn't show anything. Not being forced into situations that tip off specific plays and packages (ala last year vs FAU) is an understated "win" for us on both sides of the ball. Probably moreso on defense if we can simply stay healthy and get Colbert and Harris fully back by FSU.
Full rotation of DL:
DE Chad, D-Jax, Harris, Jackson
DT Mcintosh, Norton, Willis, Moten, Jenkins
+
more comfortable Darrion Owens rotating with the Frosh Backers
+
more comfortable Jaquan in the Nickel spot
+
healthy defensive backfield and more looks for Jamal Carter in 2-read
+
not having to tip our hand too much against two teams (App St and Ga Tech) whose QBs aren't the types to press our soft spots
=
Oct. 8th defensive flurry?
