First, the USA mascot that had the "Bell No, with Fail State" on it was pretty pathetic. Also, how USA didn't have the stadium properly staffed for a game where it was sold out, is beyond me.

The good:

Dak - I mean saying it once isn't enough. He carried this team to a win. I thought a lot of the team came out flat, and Dak had to carry this team to a win. He converted so many 3rd downs with his feet that USA fans around me were just accepting that we were getting it on any type of 3rd and 6 or less. Nice feeling.

JRob - He is just a great RB. Love his speed and power. I really think we may want to enjoy him this year, because he is going to have an NFL draft type season. Just a great player.

Matthew Wells - he was the best defensive player on the field last night. Just everywhere.

Run defense - Dominant. Nuff said.

The Bad:

Secondary - Been said before, but it was pretty bad. USA missed so many opportunities, that good teams won't miss. We need to get it together.

Front Four pressure - I didn't think we got much pressure without blitzing, and thought we should get more.

Receivers - We were blanketed most of the game. Very little separation

Relying too much on Dak - I know this is our offense, but I wish we would have been able to run him a lot less in the game. He took some monster hits that I would rather he just avoid.

Overall:

3-0 - Season starts on Saturday.
