Our defense will struggle. I think they will play better, but we haven't been able to stop anyone. They have a pretty solid RB picking up some chunk plays and PJ Walker is good enough.
I'm encouraged with Holman back. I think the good thing is our young WRs are getting open and Holman is able to see them. The challenge is getting them to execute. I think they will come along from last week and make some things happen. I'm sure there will be some miscommunications but overall I think we will move the ball through the air a littler better. It will be impossible for us to run on Temple. They are too stout, #8 Matakevich is an absolute beast at the AAC level. Kid doesn't miss a tackle and is always around the ball. We will also be challenged by their DBs, they got some solid coverage guys, so perhaps separation will be more challenging if they play man-to-man (I haven't watched enough of them to remember what sort of coverages they rely on most).
