Notes
OL seems to improve every week. RB Jackson a find
CB Igbinosun physical & dares refs to call him on it
Def is best unit in CFB. Allowed 25 points in 5 games
Run Off is not good, Sayin is accurate but deep ball?
Allowed 16 points in 3 games, none in red zone
Def dominated Texas. Run game was awful
Secondary good, but CB Igbinosun inconsistent
QB1 Julian Sayin wins starting job
DL issue, smaller, DT. Atkinson (NC) added
Lost 14 NFL Draft picks, 2nd most ever
