I will say this till I am blue in the face if we want to get to that next step.
Yes, I have been told its getting old. But its also so true.
We have seen some pretty nice things from the defense this year.
What cost us the Rose Bowl and this game was the lack of that SOB somewhere in the front 7. We have some real good players but no Arrington, Odrick, Pos, Clark, Johnson, Brown to name a few.
This defense if it has an achillies heal is it can't hold the lead when it becomes shootout.
Those players made the huge play late in the game to hold the lead.
Good to really good defense. Not elite.
Offense scores points defense wins games.
The way football is going these days the 17-10 games we saw in the past now pale in comparison to these 45-41 point shootouts we see today.
