Going into the year, the idea for this team was they would win football games by doing the following;

1. Playing lockdown defense with guys who could be playing on Sundays right now.

2. Running the ball down opponents’ throats with your two All-American backs and dual threat QB.

3. Howard playing B+ football and taking care of the football unlike McCord.

After the defensive calamity vs Oregon and run game disaster vs Nebraska, I felt like we had completely lost our identity.
I felt like Howard would have to play A+ football (Stroud-like) the rest of the way if we had any chance of winning the Natty.

Today was a huge step in reclaiming our identity as a football team. Today was the football team I envisioned back in August. Go Bucks!
