I hope we have some really physical, tough, full speed practices.
I know Spurrier has tried not to do too much hitting in preseason practices, to keep our players healthy, but strike a balance, please.
The teams we have faced in the first game for many years always seem to be ready to play, and we come out sluggish. It usually takes until sometime in the 2nd half before we catch up to the speed and physicality of the game.
Because we had scheduled inferior talent, were able to overcome and win. But, not last year.
We faced an ATM team that was not inferior, and by the time we woke up and started playing, it was all over.
My hope is, when we line up against UNC, we will start strong, looking prepared.
