Sirmon gets the game ball

I've been very hard on him, but yesterday gave me some faith that his scheme will work and more importantly can work with our current roster. If we can cover the best receiving corp in college football and get pressure, we can do some things. I really wish we could have come upon this earlier, but we can't get those games back. The coverage was tighter, the tackling was WAYYY better, the player effort was mostly there, and the movement of the d line was dynamic. Anywho, he did great. I have renewed faith that we might scratch out 6 wins if things go right and we play at a high level. Not that it matters, but I didn't want it to go unsaid.

The biggest shock to me was when TAMU got the ball back there at the end with a couple minutes left. I thought for sure we would play that soft prevent, only rush 3 guys, and just let them march all the way down the field.

Our whole D was up on the line of scrimmage and corners gave their receivers no cushion. Looked like a totally different defense. We got some great pressure and I think we rushed 4-5 guys.

Really happy to see that.
