Things I noticed at the Stadium tonight:
1. Plumlee is a significant upgrade at QB. His speed and running ability allows him to extend plays
and his passing is better than expected. Defenses will have to game plan for this guy.
2. Our O-Line was average against an FCS team, will have to be much better in the run game next week
vs Louisville. Pass protection was solid.
3. Special teams was bad. Three different holding calls on returns cost us field position and nullified an
electric TD return by Townsend. We also had a punt blocked along with the obligatory missed field
goal by Obarskie. Our kicking game is going to cost us a game if we don’t get it fixed.
4. Defense is much improved and is going to be a problem for opposing offenses.
5. Divaad Wilson is not the answer as punt returner. Hopefully, Gus slides Townsend in there
on a permanent basis. Kid reminds me of Otis Anderson Jr.
6. Appears that Tommy C is our QB2, would expect Keene to enter portal at some point.
7. Lee Hunter on sidelines but not dressed. Don’t know if it was injury or disciplinary issue.
Same thing with Terrance Lewis who was dressed and on sideline.
8. Appears we escaped without injuries tonight. Overall, good win but will need to clean up
some things in order to beat Louisville.
