Tired? Beat up?

Did our defense look rather pedestrian Saturday? Kearse has not looked as explosive. Is it possible that our team in general is a little beat up? Should there be concern or is it much ado about nothing?

That's all I could figure. That or just really not being mentally prepared to play that game.
The intensity we saw against Notre Dome, GT and Miami is all but nonexistent now. What I see now is the same level of talent playing uninspired football for several series at a time.

We've played 7 straight weeks unlike folks like OSU and Bama, who both had a bye week Oct 31st while ours was after our 3rd week. Bad planning for us.

Agree 100%. The road stretch is tough this late in the season, I'm sure even moreso when you're trying to keep a high ranking and in the limelight, etc.

I think some of it's schematic since teams have more game film to analyze, but something else is missing. Similar to what we've seen on KO coverage. Hopefully the team will respond and play with a lot of energy these next 5 games.

They got comfortable too early, saw another Miami game on the horizon and just didn't know how to get back in the game defensively, when Syracuse made some plays.

If these young men are wore out after 10 games some will never make it in the NFL.
