Blog of Drewry Morris - l'Esprit Ouvert: War Eagle

Well, we had a pretty nice victory over LA Tech yesterday. However, this did not come without some worries. Firstly, I think our offense started off quite slowly but really picked up the pace. This can prove to be a huge advantage over some of our more difficult competitors who traditionally start out very strong and then lose steam. Secondly, I think our defense was mostly a big disapointment (with the exception of that interception and a few other nice plays).

We had a few bullshit calls by the ref, a pass interference for an uncatchable catch to name one. We also had some really awesome game statistics for a first game and for our freshmen players. We saw that having two quarterbacks in the backfield proves two things: 1) Reinstates why Kodi Burns is not starting QB, 2) keeps the defense guessing which one is going to throw the ball. If they really iron out this technique, we can be a very strong team.

Finally, I think we have a lot of colors on the palette but we have found only 2 or 3 that we know to be good. This worked for LA Tech, but will it work against the other teams that have a full palette? My worry is that if we don't reinvent our team further, we won't be able to compete with the big boys in the SEC. We will see next weekend!
