Both players and the ball came together at the same time. They didn't call it because it wasn't coverage and neither player attempted to make a play on the ball, so PI could have gone either against us or against them if it had been called.

Gotta have both the skill and the will.

Of what?

Last year we were blitzing because of futility from the d-line. Today, we were blitzing because the d-line was holding its own and there was confidence in the secondary playing man. Granted, not a great opponent to get a good measure from but all three levels played about as well as we could hope for.

He definitely came across like he had a little too much of a coaches mentality as opposed to that of a player. Something about this clip definitely seemed off for him. Maybe he's a little bit overwhelmed with the leadership role he has and was emulating Frost as opposed to being himself.

At some point in the season, we are ranked 6th or higher.

93 was a funny year. We didn't dominate anybody, but won them all. Almost to a person, nobody expected us to beat FSU and we were all kind of surprised that we outplayed them. It was kind of like 95 in the fact that during the season we really didn't have a grasp on how good the team was. If Bennett had made the last second field goal, yeah we would have won the title but I don't think anybody would be saying that team was in the discussion for GOAT. 82, otoh, probably would be. It was the most balanced, complete team from Lincoln that didn't win a title.

I doubt it. Defensively we would have essentially the same players and Diaco calling the shots. That doesnt bode well. Offensively we would be completely different system-wise, but last year wasn't as productive as this year has been. Turnovers and penalties might be marginally better, but I doubt by enough to make a difference.

Thus far, Bell just looks like a slightly better version of Wilbon. Too early to really pass judgement on him and I'm sure he has a lot of potential, but if I (and the coaches apparently) had to choose between the 2 its an easy decision.

He's a lot like Imani Cross, but better.

Right there with you. I predicted he would be our #1 back after the spring game just based on the fact that he is a great changeup style player to compliment Spielman, Morgan, etc.

His tackle stats are a product of being an LB in this system. The issue with him is how often he is out of position.

Young as well.

Spielman is anything but weak and he was a Riley recruit.

Just for clarification, both Davis twins and Morgan were Pelini recruits and Ozigbo was pursued by both the Pelini and Riley staffs.
