***** USC-UNC GAME THREAD *****

[gridfan]

Mitch off to a rough start, no completions yet!

 

[uscjunkie36]

Let's see what the freshman can do...can't look much worse than this so far.....lol

 

[GCMD2]

Yep could have made the 1st down then instead of the crappy pass to #89

The pass was a GREAT pass...just wasn't what he needs to do right now. He needs to force the D to keep watching him...that will open up all of the receivers.

If they have to worry about Mitch running the ball, they will be a second late picking up the RBs and every route gets a little easier to run...

 

[lakeworld]

Mitch looks a step behind the whole offense.

 

[GCMD2]

Terrible tackling....missed assignments...

 

[shorecock]

He just needs a few good passes to get his nerve under control.

 

[GCMD2]

Pace is hurting the D...Run D is stout now...

 

[IBleedUSC]

Mmm.. Starting to look like last year only worse.

 

[lakeworld]

They did get a pick in the end zone

 

[IBleedUSC]

Where the heck is the pass rush.

 

[GCMD2]

Pass D hurting us? Wow...that's gonna/gotta change!

 

[lakeworld]

No pass rush at all... I mean nothing. 6-6 looking good now

 

[Cocky kebo57]

Not good. D is barely slowing them down and we're in the 7 hole already.

 

[alaskagamecock]

Gonna be a looong year

 

[GCMD2]

Safety took out the DB...LOL.

 

[IBleedUSC]

Not all the Ds fault offense has had 2 chances.

 

[uscjunkie36]

New year same defense....Problem is there is no offense to keep games close this year. Hoke was right he simplified the defense so much that the other team can now go 90 yards even quicker....lol

 

[alaskagamecock]

That was a awful easy 95 yard drive for sure

 

[jeff2001]

Lucky to just be down 7

 

[McSpur]

I guess you have to wait until the lights go on to see who can play when the lights go on.

 

[CAPTCOCK61]

Paying the price for not getting mitch i games last year.

 

[JustAmazed]

The sky is not falling......yet

 

[Carolina Bo]

HUNH killing us. We can't even get plays off before the clock runs out. Pitiful.

 

[Vincent Hanna]

LOL. We look terrible. Atta boy having them ready to play Spurrier.

 

[1vagamecock]

This is a BAD team!!

 

[GCMD2]

Not worried...yet. Run D looked really good. DBs were lost and took too long to get lined up. That's on Hoke too. There will be changes...

 

[IBleedUSC]

Time to put Scar in.

 

[Cybercock]

They look severely unprepared. Defense slow and offense tentative. 4 penalties at least. what the heck have they been doing all summer. We are lucky we arent playing anybody good or we would be down 21 by now

 

[JustAmazed]

Need to show some life here.

 

[usaguy40]

if the front 4 cant put any pressure on the unc quarterback, hes going to pick em a part.....bank on it....hopefully things will change

 

[GCMD2]

We will see what Mitch is made of...

 

[robertfootball]

DB's playing way too far off the ball. Be aggressive Hoke!

 

[chucktowncock]

just need to pound 'em on the ground and keep their offense off the field

we look lost so far

go cocks!

 

[IBleedUSC]

We will see what Mitch is made of...

I have seen enough I think.

 

[Carolina Bo]

Completely unprepared. As usual.

 

[GCMD2]

We've had a long time to prepare for UNC. That's why I have to believe that they will get better...because someone's going to the bench!

 

[amfm1047]

Its just nerves. UNC's D does not look very tough. Mitch out ran them to the edge. Seems like we need to start using the option.

 

[CAPTCOCK61]

First impressions we are outmatched on both sides of the ball . We have many new players and it shows.

 

[snucock63]

We will see what Mitch is made of...

Just settle down and play. First game normal 1st qtr jitters and gaffes. Now let's play. No bailing out yet.

 

[GCMD2]

I have seen enough I think.

I don't think he's done poorly...just too nervous....
