People may disagree, but this is a big game for us. Mainly mentally, getting confidence back after a loss is critical. This can be a game where players can get more refined fundamentally, and build off of these things to carry over into the next game, and hopefully.... the rest of the season. And I have to admit, I'm extremely nervous about this game. Not only about the QB situation, and what will happen with that in this game... but also defensively, I have faith in the ILB group(that was really the biggest bright spot in the Texas game to me), but the other groups I'm anxious about. They need to get better on the front, and the backend. Id love to see some other D-lineman get more opportunities, because the first group Saturday did not get it done. Maybe you remember, but did James Smith get any reps? Like I've said before, my eyes are usually always on the linebackers, so I'm not sure. Maybe seeing the other guys get more reps will finally make it click to them what the situation is.

[QUOTE="Scrape&Search1032, post: 1494747, member: 27083"] People may disagree, but this is a big game for us. Mainly mentally, getting confidence back after a loss is critical. This can be a game where players can get more refined fundamentally, and build off of these things to carry over into the next game, and hopefully.... the rest of the season.
