I agree. There is no way you should lose when you put those kind of points on the board. Offense looked unstoppable in the 1st half.

I kind of look at it like cooking: CM made the cake; now BV has to find the recipe for the icing...and hope to heck he has the right ingredients!

Andre Ware, Cam Newton, David Klingler, Tim Couch, etc, etc all say the same thing.
This style of offense, historically and in the present, does not lend itself to good defenses. You can make coaching changes, recruit better, and all of that but it is a recurrent theme: high tempo, spread offenses are usually accompanied by even worse defenses.

DECENT, we would've beat FSU by 2 TDs.

FSU proved it this weekend. Speedy Offense, good Defense

and they won the game. I think they were the all around better team, but I don't think Clemson is far off. We had a chance to win, but couldn't make the adjustment. Give them credit, and move on. Our season is not over yet!!

At Tulsa and here last year, Morris did not have a "decent"

defense. What Simms said is true. This kind of offense is NOT conducive to solid defensive performances. Get used to it.

Chad has enough problems of his own to worry about.

He can help out by keeping the defense off the field as much as possible.

I personally think that this offense makes it difficult to have a good defense. Its such a quick strike offense that our defense ends up on the field most of the game. When you have teams that run a pro style offense and just rams it down the opponents throat your D stays off the field and gets a lot of rest.
