    I think we all can agree that seeing the same flaws from last year, resulting in vast stretches of offensive ineptitude, is not ideal...

    You take the penalties alone away and they don't stop us very much, this offense is much improved.

    Florida not doing much with FAU.

    The days of beating up on little teams is limited now due to the portal. The team we played today had some highly ranked recruits including a good older QB and receiver.

    Yep with free agency in cfb now teams can get better overnight. Guys transferring from bigger programs to these smaller schools are talented just looking for playing time.

    I get what you are saying, but why would LA Tech get so much better with the portal, and not us?

    Because we thought we had good players at those positions. Other than QB, it's not that La Tech had better players than us, but they did have much better players than they've had in the past.

    The days of guys sitting the bench at P5 schools may be over

    We did get better. Plus with JUCOs, they probably had more needs

    Because we're at the middle to lower end of the P5 in terms of talent. Look at recruiting rankings over the past few years.

    The point is that the portal allows lower end D1 teams to vastly improve their talent. We, on the other hand, are looking at equivalent talent to what we have in the portal - which provides parity across the sport outside those few teams hoarding all the 5* talent.

    Yep. Look at the scores from today. Not many blowouts on opening day like their usually are. Transfer portal has become an equalizer
