Notes
Sounds like Dylan Lonergan is QB1 vs ND
Defense near worst in CFB in scoring opportunites
LT Bowry, LG Daugherty both out vs UConn
L to UConn at home ugly, Pass Def torched, Off OK
QB James in for Lonergan (benched). Run Off awful
Quit watch: 48-7 loss at Pitt feels like turning point
This Def is f'ing terrible. Not much to like about BC
Both starting CBs out vs Stanford, DT as well
QB Lonergan a baller, Pass Off good, can't run
QB1 Lonergan (TR - Bama) beat James for job
