Yea, I agree. Their defense played well but the offense was terrible. The new QB never got anything going. We put a lot of pressure on him but he just looked lost all day. We stacked the hell out of the box and he just could not do anything about it


I will be interested to see how our front 7 play this week when we cant just pin our ears back and rush like hell

Yup. I mean, I'm saying the same thing about us. I don't know that I know a *lot* about our defense yet either. The starters certainly man handled App State pretty well, but thanks to some shitty interceptions by Brice Ramsey, I didn't really get to see how the second team would hold up to a sustained drive. Looking forward to see how the starters hold up against one of the better OLs we'll face this season in ND.

Trying to read too much into week 1 games against non P5 opponents is an exercise in futility. Hell, sometimes so are the games against P5 teams... Week 4-5 generally gives you a much better idea of what you've got in your team, as you'll generally have at least played 2-3 non-cupcake teams by then.
