As I said, we are young. Also, Lake has mixing and matching alot. We lost alot to the draft. Three of our DB's from last year are now starting in the NFL. We also lost our SR DL and middle LBs. Our young players are actually more talented. You guys probably know Taki Taimani. Tuli is a beast. Levi O is considered a 1st round talent. IMO we signed the top DL class in the country last year and all have played so far this year. Tuetille, Bandes, Laiatu Latu who everyone assumed was Bama bound. Also Nua Nagalu.
Lake has given some seniors playing time who frankly arent up to standards. Our DB's took a major step forward last week. Kyler Gordon is ridiculously talented. Also we are starting true FR Cam Williams. He has three games under his belt plus HS so you should see a different D this week. As I said, everyone is talking about the difference between the D last week to the previous week and the improvement we will see this weekend.
