The bad news is we've slipped to 27th in yds/gm defense and collapse to 89th in passing yds/gm defense. At least we are still in the top 10 in rushing defense (#9 at 91 yds/gm) and 11th in scoring D (15.8 pts/gm).

Not too concerned with the passing defense slip. We've been up big in all the games so teams have abandoned the run and been forced to pass most of the game. We have been giving up some easy completions though, which could be an issue in a close game but we haven't been gashed for the big plays which is nice. Griffin needs to start getting more pressure on the QB, he rushes every play but hasn't been getting nearly the same results as last year.

Last year, UCF was high-ranked early against the run, but that blew up as opponents learned to ram it up the gut. We had no possible answer. The depth and talent wasn't there and our starters quickly got worn down and injured.

We can make up for that by playing Navy. We might take a dip in rushing defense though. :sunglasses:
