Positives in Light of the Situation

I posted this in the comments section of the film review, but I felt it needed to have it's own post. It's time to regroup and change our thinking a little bit. I don't think we should necessarily be calling for people's heads just yet. I explain why I believe we have some good things to take from our current situation after the break.

I agree that there needs to be some changes made on the offense, but at the same time, we shouldn't necessarily be all doom and gloom right now. Honestly, I know we were all HOPING that we could pull a title run out of our asses, as we hope before every season, but WHO in their right mind thought that this was going to be "our season"?

Additionally, yeah, it sucks we lost to Cincy that way. It was scarily similar to the way Boise St ended. Maybe FedEx just hates our freakin' guts. But there ARE positives people. It may not have started to develop until the second half, but our offense started to get a little rhythm going. I saw great things out of our running backs, and even though we didn't win, I think they had breakout performances. Defense played OUTSTANDING football with the exception of a few broken coverages from a patchwork secondary. It's just as Bud said, the media hyped this defense. He said we had a "chance to be good." The front 7 performed well in containing Legeaux, and I think they keep up that fire and aggression throughout the season. We'll need it against FSU and Clemson.

So, let's get our shit straight and take the rest of the season one game at a time, just as our team should. Let's kill the Tar Heels at Keenan. We own it anyway. They're 0-4 at home against us. Let's make it 0-5.

Let's go Hokies.
