Notes
TE M Trigg is best TE in CFB. Incredible weapon
Huge comeback W over K St, a season turner. Bravo
Turnovers a major issue, into Oct 110th, 2 in 1Q today
Tough L vs ASU, Def played better, Robertson great
Def tackling is atrocious. DB's cannot run fit
#2 RB Pendergrass out for season (foot inj)
LB T Barnes (FIU) was CUSA DPOY in '24
OC Spavital was good hire, offense took off LY
OL has top 20 returning prod w/o portals
DE/Pass rush? Winston & Fobbs-White portal adds
