re: Dline or secondary- which was more disappointing?

Offense put up 35 points, had Jones held onto the ball. All this while knowing that they had to score a TD on every possession just to stay in the game. I really can't fault them too much.

Yeah, the offense did fine I think and had to play from a 10+ point deficit almost the entire game.. that alone changes the game plan and forces us to into playing catch-up for far too long.

It was the secondary for me. The whole scheme was around a 3-4 defense so there were plenty of times when it was 3 DL vs 5 of their elite OL and sometimes an RB. That game plan alone was a disaster from the get go. With that said even on plays when A&M didn't need much time the secondary got blown up. They did nothing against screens and slants.
