Tech is ranked dead last in pass defense. Rocco has a big day.
I am interested to see how Mouse responds after the bye week that had him publicly owning he needed to do better. Was forcing things etc.

Think you could be right. Maybe he attacks their weakness out the gate then chokes them out with pa and run.

I think Mouse has done fine personally. He didn't give up 7 yards per play to UCF and throw the 2 pick sixes.

If it were me that's what I would do. Build a 2 score lead. Offense then goes into anaconda mode. Let Morton try to navigate a Heacock pass defense trying to comeback. But I'm sure that's the plan every game, easier said then done sometimes.

Notorious for slow starts, are the Clones likely to be even more sluggish after the bye?
Love the grinder mentality that has led to 7-0, but a sizable, early lead would be good for my mental health.
The dog would appreciate it too.

Beyond that, it would be good to have a less physical game. If Tech mails it in, thats less effort and getting beat up on the guys.

Having one of those SEC late season bs games vs a tiny school is the model here. E.g. OU plays Maine today.

He seems to operate a bit like Heacock.

Stick with base approaches early and then crank things up a notch at the right moments.

I'd like to know if there's improved communication between the staff, players, etc. on what's available as the game goes on vs. years' past.
