With our defense last year if he had a punter we would have won 9-10 games.
We never were able to flip field position and make things easier for our terrible offense.
This year I expect the offense to hold its own and therefore with this defense make a big run.
What I would really love to see is someone emerge as a dominate pass rusher. Joe Jackson was a beast but he wasn’t a dominate pass rusher. Hence why he wasn’t drafted higher.
If someone emerges as a guy you have to double team all of a sudden more of those blitz we want to run get open runs or a 1 on 1 for our best guy.
There is no reason to think we can't spoil UF's offensive dreams on 8/24. We have more doubters on this board than we should.
Absolutely, we know what a MD defense is capable of and this year should be killer. The delay announcing the qb imo is cause Manolo and Co. are taking the offense very seriously and squeezing the guys to perform at a much higher level than before wit CMR.I only doubt the offense.
Lots of potential....but unproven
Just show us ENOS...because we ALL want to believe
