Non scholarship USD dominated on defense. Plan set up by defensive coordinator Steve Irwin. NAU had 4 possessions in the 1st quarter for a -29 yards.

"But the story of the night was USD’s defense. Northern Arizona came in averaging 32 points a game. The Lumberjacks boasted the FCS’ eighth-best passing attack. Lindsey raved about NAU quarterback Case Cookus beforehand.

"But defensive end Jonathan Petersen, linebacker KJ Mahoney, safety Colton Giorgi and the rest of their mates unleashed a devastating performance. The Toreros forced three turnovers, racked up four sacks and compiled nine tackles for losses, holding the high-wire Lumberjacks to one touchdown."

Maybe they looked past USD, and the Terreros went all Sochor on them.

Chris Peterson and UW routing WSU 34-0. 4 TOs for WSU, stud defender tossed for targeting.

Wow. But belongs in the hoops section.

220# special team player / reserve LB helps turn Fresno State defense around.

Interesting points. Don't forget Sochor was attending pro camps, so was Foster. Foster had a dominant D running the Flex, and he didn't sit idle, he added the 45 or 54 defense option from the Chicago Bears?

Currently, I find it hard to believe our defensive talent is #113. Get the TO margin to 50 or 40, clean up special teams, and get the defense at least to #80 or #70 and we can make some noise.

I think we already have enough cooks in the kitchen? (3)

Our offense has risen to the challenge, maybe 75% there?

Defense is a huge area of concern. Special teams may be easier to fix, tough to have a freshman in a key spot.

Article I read mentioned how the business community depends upon at least 1 playoff game.

Or we can adapt. Tucker may have been unfamiliar w the Big Sky. But life won't be pretty if we continue to be the #113 defense if FCS.

USD, home

Read Dunning, end of article.

Plus USD again, I believe.

Ours odds at Stanford are better with Doss and without Love.

Go Ags!

In today's Davis Enterprise Bob Dunning gives a mini recap of the season. They speak as if Doss is coming back, and detail the 2018 schedule. Two FBS schools, Stanford and San Jose State, and Idaho at home. Montana also on the schedule.

No analysis.

Sac on a 12-0 run. 37- 32.

247 ranks him a 2 star recruit. Excells in the 110M and 300M hurdle statewide.

Good catch CA!

Jake Parks*** would be a great addition to our O Line. He's been offered by Nevada.... Of all his offers, we have the best academics by a mile.

We had excellent student turnout in 2 Home gms (out of 4 stdts in session). Huge improvement in game atmosphere, though I wonder if the video board distracts our millenials. Two new studs on D line might go a long way and successful run game to get D some adjustment time.

Yes. Looks like first part of the season we switched our backup center to LT. We redshirted coveted recruits Carson Crawford and Cam Trimble.
