Really glad Duke wasn't trying to block that punt. That was a bad snap.

Bold strategy to leave the center 2 on 1 and also not block on the edge. Duke isn't disguising anything and we still seem wholly unprepared.
Yeah as soon as I said it they did it next play. Luke has to recognize that.
That's what I don't get. Everyone and their mom knew they were bringing the house on that one.
We look awful. We should not be winning as Duke is beating us on both sides of the ball.
How do you not see that all out blitz coming by the coaching staff?! Literally just quick throw to the boundary and it’s beat.
Not enough misdirection. Duke is over pursing like crazy. Barry should be using misdirection and testing the boundary over and over until the middle softens.
Really poor game plan so far.

Has been a consistent problem
Got. To get. The ball out. Quicker!
Diaz did this last time too. I’m reserving judgment until after halftime when adjustments can be made but this can’t keep happening.
Our zone defense is killing us

We had a good one earlier and the ball bounced off the receiver's hands (I forgot whose).

We play so soft on defense and they put a ton of pressure on.
That was a really poorly disguised blitz. Obvious. Why didn't Altmeyer audible into a screen or quick hitter play?

They wouldn't be trying to keep stuff off film still, would they? That thought just occurred to me
Brutal play, thought we had them stopped.
We need that same play vs blitz over n over...that last 3td diwm we blew sucked
How do you let them execute a screen there?
