  • Good analysis. IMO USCe's biggest weakness is their pass defense. Despite their impressing passing stats, I am not sure they can be taken at face value due to the types of offenses they have played up to this point. FWIW, of the eight teams USCe has played thus far, five are ranked 85th or worse in passing yards per game (FL #118th, LSU #112th, KY #102nd, Mizzou #90th, Vandy #85th). With the exception of GA, UAB and E. Carolina represent the most productive passing attacks that USCe has faced to date. Saturday’s matchup should be interesting…
