1st half we were out there playing with a chip on our shoulder, fighting and grinding until the whistle blew. Offense was good, defense made two good plays, and we shocked ESPN by being down by only 7 to the GOD almighty Jamous. Pro style throw by Morris to Hurns on 2nd TD and I thought we had a chance to make it close.

2nd Half was a distaster.
Defense:
[*]No "D" Ofrio continues to cover wide receivers with linebackers
[*]No one covering the RB checkdown or TE
[*]No defensivee pressure or disguised blitzes
[*]Highsmith still playing
[*]Lots of missed tackles
[*]3rd down defense was atrocious and Highsmith is still playing
[*]Even when everybody in the stadium knew they were running the ball, they still got 4 or 5 yards and Highsmith is still playing

Offense:
[*]Morris showing why he is Jacory 2.0
[*]Offensive line owned by defensive line on 3rd and short
[*]4th and 11 and we throw a 5 yd pass
[*]No sense of urgency in the 4th quarter

All in all, there was no pride in the 4th quarter and they made the adjustments, we didn't. Also, I have no confidence in Goudis and I want D'nofrio fired, although he will never be because his was Golden's best man at his wedding.

Feel free to add anything I missed out on. Hope Duke is ok and we put this behind us and look forward to VagTech.

There were no adjustments...the game-plan for the second half was to keep the game close and hope to sneak out a win...everything was riding on the drive coming out of halftime. Drive down the field and score and tie the game and keep it close. Defense plan was to play soft coverage and make FSU drive the field in hopes of Jamiese getting greedy and throwing an errant pass for an int or hopes of getting a stop on third down. None of that happened and we suffered from it. But it all comes back down to a lack of pass rush and an incompetent Qb,

Our defense suck , 2 years in a row. Basically what people are saying is we can only expect to have a decent defense in 2015. Holla back
