Penn State ranked #5 best defense in college football for 2015. From Bleacher Report Jared Goff (Cal QB) a second coming of Aaron Rodgers? Aztecs to be severely tested in pre-season!

Control the clock with our run game, and let our VERY good Aztec defense go up against these guys. If we take the approach we did w/ UNC last year, we can beat both of these teams.

That approach on offense cost us the game but I think I get your point. I am convinced our very good defense will keep us in one or both of these two ooc big deal games till the end. Is this the year we pull one off?

Is this the year we pull one off? Wasn't it a half-assed pass that cost us the game? If they had kept it on the ground they would have survived Monty's Curse  |

I think the key to success this year is the ability to answer back TDs with help from the passing game. That will prevent the defenses from stacking the line. That's what almost killed us in the 2nd halves, even against the lousy teams. We had to depend on our defense way too much after those 3 and outs. We could have easily beaten Boise State last year if we had a QB.

Personally I'd like to see us stop somebody in the red zone.

I've been to Happy Valley on gameday. If we win it might be the biggest win in team history. Like that we're taking our shot. But my expectation isn't much better than when we played Ohio State.

To start the season , every team will load the box and try to make our QB's beat them . Going to need improvement very quickly from the OL or go to the hurry up offense again PSU . Run or short passes to guys that can turn the pass into more yardage . Avoid getting into 3rd and long . Would guess Aztecs try to beat USD with basic offense and defense ,USD just named their starting QB , save special things for PSU.
The PSU QB is good , so do not expect to totally control him . He has faced some quality D's before in the BIG . OSU , MSU , ...

Wait, are we allowed to talk about the two previous opponents we have to face before this game? One of them in the Pac12 no less and on the road, which is also the actual university Aaron Rodgers came out of...

Before the season even starts?! Let's see how long that lasts. It will be changing on a weekly basis, of course. I believe we have the offense to put a dent in their "D". Just have to wait to see. But, of course, let's take care of USD first. |
