Last night's game was interesting. We saw a better running game, but obviously not everything was firing on the cylinders they needed to be. Unless we see a major improvement after the MTSU game, the ACC run could be a very ugly one. Still time to work things out, but not much.

I don't remember being as nervous after starting off 3-0. :twitch: :wizard:

This team is different than what we’re used to so it makes us all nervous. My expectation is ACC teams are going to blitz us constantly to challenge Murphy’s lack of mobility.

I agree. I'd actually feel good about that if the receiving corps had a higher success rate on catching his throws. He seems to be pretty accurate, but we are suffering a severe case of the drops. (Drops and literal inch misses)

A blitz means that someone downfield is open, and that's great if the guy that's open can catch it.
