Huh

To be fair, I would've bet against that line as well. Winning by 49+ is a lot of points, especially for how Bret typically calls games. Goes to show Vegas knew what they were doing.

I'm not as concerned because we've been blowing people off the ball at times, but we've struggled to block as a unit and I think that will come with reps and practice. I expect much improvement over the next few weeks. We're missing blocks and assignments and those are teachable things especially for someone like Bret. If we were getting physically dominated, now that'd be a different story. But as we stand now, I think we have the tools, just need to sharpen them

It hasn't been clean by any means. BUT we'll take this stress free W over what Duke, Wiscy, Rutgers, etc went through last night.

Hopefully, we can gash Duke for 150+ rushing yards and let Duke drop back 40 times for Gabe to chase

Did they just say Hank broke a Red Grange record?
