People keep saying we had a ton of 2's and 3's in but that's just straight BS. Our run defense is brutal right now plain and simple from starters on down. The d line can't get off blocks to make tackles, linebackers are nonexistent, and secondary takes bad angles. To say different is just a lie.
I agree with you. I saw them constantly gashed right up the middle and then pretty inept around the ends. This should not have happened with UAB, and Gurley Man looms like a spectre.

I disagree, look did UAB move the ball in the second qtr? Absolutely. Is it a little concerning? Maybe. But was anyone watching the 1st qtr? UAB had 4 possessions and had 4 yards to show for it!!! 4 sets of downs and 4 yards are you kidding me, what more do you want. We get up 28 points and the defense let's off the gas a little, that is going to happen. Anyone who has played football understands this, when you know you are going to pound a team your intensity let's up some. Not saying this is a good thing, but it is human nature it happens.

I truly believe it mostly has to do with the poor LB play especially MLB. Come on can anyone really understand now how important the Mike position is? Now that we don't have Minter racking up 12 tackles a game and going sideline to sideline. Especially with Chief coaching the LB's that is the disappointing thing to me the very sub-par LB play especially from the MLB - another Welter needs to go rant!!!
