Kade Kade Kade...I have no words...347 yards rushing to set not only a school record but a SLC record as well...more accolades to start pouring in in the next couple of days.
With the change of OCs this season I was interested in seeing if Coach Langston (the OL coach and a former OL himself) would change the offensive style...think it's safe to say that is a yes. He's letting the big boys do what they love.
Speaking of the OL, they played another fantastic game. 26 drop backs and zero sacks again. Have only allowed 1 all season and that was to Baylor...very impressive. Couple of false starts and an illegal snap early but they settled in nicely.
Pretty conservative with the passing game tonight...both picks Minden threw were a combination of bad reads and worse throws...needs to be cleaned up but continued reps can help that assuming he is starting going forward.
Tackling was better tonight.
Pass rush needs improvement...had some sacks but felt like we could have been a little better...ACU ran a lot of quick passes that makes it difficult to get pressure but their is room for improvement here. (Gotta find something to improve on right?!?!)
Secondary played pretty well...a couple of PIs that might have been ticky tack but your not going to get the benefit of the doubt when you don't get your head around. Had one busted coverage/missed assignment that resulted in a 52 yard score. One long pass at the start of the 4th that got ACU down inside the 5 was against almost the entire 2nd/3rd team D and on a true freshman DB.
I know I sound like a broke record but Rodney Randle continues to impress. Fantastic interception tonight where he basically ran the route for the WR
