I know the offense is getting a ton of attention and rightfully so due to possibly one of if not the worst single half performances by an irish offense in history.
Back to D - The D was absolutely terrible in the second half, and they weren't great in the first half.
They gave up a 10 minute drive to start the half - you just can't let that happen vs navy if you have a good D. You have to put them in positions to not be able to grind out first downs.
The last TD Navy had they went 88 yards. Navy also had 3 false start penalties on this drive resulting in Navy starting 1st and 15 3 times and having no issues getting first downs.
I just bring this up because our D gave up 32 points to Navy. That's the second most points they've scored all year. They only scored more on SMU (34). SMU just gave up over 60 points to a team.
Golson and I agree, no clue why we didn't use last years scheme or part of it and instead completely changed it. Last year the D completely dominated Navy. Yes not having JD didn't help, but our scheme with the Dline was moronic, they were not in a position to make plays.
Our offense and D needs to get back on track vs a bad BC team. WE can't keep playing like crap vs crap teams.
