We got outplayed. Flat out. They came very aggressive with the front four, and we flat out did not block them the way we should have. They created timing problems for our offense.

At this point it is hard to tell how good we will be, but we will really be able to tell once everyone gets the pads on and we head into training camp. We still need to understand the schemes a little better, but we will be OK if they stay enthusiastic and energetic like they were today.

We have to stop the madness. That was the first thing I said. It's not just MEAC schools. We've got schools in Alabama and Georgia that have made a feast out of Florida players.
