Ok, so we're even, neither of us have DC's

Ellis absence will be felt, but at least the defensive position coaches believe in the system that got us here (4-2-5) and mixing up a little (3-3-5), so they won't try to make any changes for the bowl game. Lorenzo Ward will be calling the shots, but I don't know if he'll be in the booth or down on the field. I'm sure Ward will do a good job, but I think the defense is going to have to count on athleticism a lot this game, until they hammer some things out.

Well no wonder you're passing D is so good. You've stolen Nebraska's Peso defense.

haha, no, we've been running it for a few years now, I think y'all started it in 2010, then abandoned it. It's a great defense if you are deep with talent/speed in your safety position and have a solid D-Line.

The fact that Carl and Ellis won't be on the sidelines hurts a little in-game, but those players know their roles by now, and there are enough coaches on each team to coach these guys up during the game that the impact will be minimal. I don't see it as an advantage either way.

Losing Carl won't hurt, he was more of a figure head anyway. It's Bo's defense and Carl was just along for the ride. I can't believe he got a HC position, I know it's just FAU, but how is he qualified to be a HC?

:confucius

Any time you lose a position coach, you're hurt to some degree at the very least from a cohesion standpoint, and I don't see much of a way of arguing against that.

As far as FAU is concerned, it's FAU. They're liable to take a chance on anybody.
