Shoutout the Secondary

[BeachCanes]

These guys are good. You don’t ever hear OJ’s name, so I’ll assume he’s just great in coverage. We neutralized Duce for the most part. Xavier Lucas got away with a PI early in the game but he has played well. I saw Damari with a huge TFL and he has also been good in coverage in the games prior.
Jakobe Thomas obviously has been making plays; I don’t hear much on Poyser - has he played well for those who pay attention closely to the DBs?

Can’t be stated enough how well Mario overhauled the secondary. Just sucks that Brantley transferred and hasn’t played; that decision has cost him some money but the guys ahead of him probably outplayed him in the spring and are simply better.

 

[BeachCanes]

Oh and of course their job is much easier playing behind the best DL in the nation and an improved LB core.

 

[OrangeBowlMagic]

I wasn’t sold on Jakobe Thomas coming into the year.

I am now. That kid is a football player.

He caused the fumble we recovered

I meant in general this season, but thank you I also didn’t notice he caused the fumble lol.

 

[Hufftwoseven]

I feel like Bain gets pressure on 75% of his rushes lol it’s insane. DB’s kept everything in front of them against and explosive offense and I’m sure that was the plan.

 

[Canemane01]

Safeties played insane.

 

[AUcane]

Safeties played great as well as Scott.

What’s the deal with Lucas? I expected better out of that guy but right now, he’s a liability

 

[dudenate]

On the first drive, both Lucas and the receiver were holding.

It was a good no-call

A liability. lol.

Wut?

 

[Canes Legacy]

Scott and Thomas have absolutely transformed the secondary. They are everywhere all the time.

I think He has the size and athletic profile to potentially be a high round draft pick plus his tape this season is legit

 

[canecrazy23]

A liability. lol.

Another wild CIS take. LOL

Couldn’t get off the field at all in the 4th quarter; the D as a whole just looked undisciplined. Putrid way to end the game; but the offense just made it harder for them by keeping them on the field.

Thankfully the first 3 quarters count too.

Throw in the ballhawk Fitz as well.

Man, playing street ball for so many plays in a row is why people are underplaying the offense’s role in a couple of those drives. Specifically, 28-11 with the ball after an onside kick presents a ton of opportunities with minimal downside. Very, very poor example of complementary football. Maybe not a full pass, but I’m giving the defense a partial pass for getting fried out there for at least 15-20 unnecessary plays.

I wouldn't used the word liability that's for sure.

He's lined up on their 1s. The other team is allowed to make plays, it happens.

K Scott had 11 tackles. Dont know what position he is but kid has a nose for the ball and is a baller
