Or rice last year? That’s the level ULM is at.
I thought offensive line flashed at points but still showed its inexperience. They’re in for a rough week. That said, I’m bullish they can be better than last years shit show.
Defensive line showed it’s more talented than ULM, but not very good overall. Outside of a few plays (Sorrell helps), they struggled to get a push against the pass. Better teams will have too much time to throw.
Ewers made many freshman mistakes. He needed more reps. He’s a risk taker which will result in some great plays (threading the needle in double coverage early third quarter, improvising that flip pass to sanders on his rollout) and some not so great plays (first two attempts). He throws a beautiful ball. I wish he could have connected on the deep balls to build confidence.
wtf card. Scared to death of a Ewers injury now.
It was nice to see some guys really show up - Sanders, Overshown in particular. The latter seems to be closer to what we hoped he would be last year.
Tackling seemed better, but I’m not sure how much of that was competition vs improvement. They tackled well vs. Rice too.
It looks like the early line is Bama -17. I’d take Bama and the points without a second thought.
