Shame we're going up against a 6-6 team in this type of setting, but we will play who we come up against!

I don't have the scoring summary but oh man are you guys in for something crazy here shortly. This game was nuts near the end.

So our pass defense got beat. Bad. Real bad. Like, they've been listening to that one Michal Jackson song on repeat, Bad. We didn't generate any pressure and the DBacks were wildly out of position the whole time. Fortunately we were resolute on offense on 3rd down as usual. Helps when you avoid taking too many negative plays and don't have long to get to the sticks though.

So you might look at that and ask why CB Aapri Washington has a rush for 18 yards. Well what happens when your starting QB is out for the season. Your (now) 2nd string QB Matt Myers is out for the game with a concussion, and you're (now) 3rd string QB Dom Johnson breaks his leg halfway through the game winning drive with under a minute remaining. That's right, you put the fastest guy in and hope he can make something happen with his legs, because we didn't have anyone who could possibly complete a pass downfield with any sort of reliability. Aapri Washington had a big run with the receivers running deep. Was just trying to keep them honest. Given that neither our kicker or punter can complete a field goal past 35 yards, it had to be a great run. But we got the Game winning Field Goal as time expired, crisis averted!

Let's meet the 2020 Buffalo Bulls Freshman!

QB Mike Kemp
jD1yhGR.png

Kemp immediately comes in as the best QB on this team being quick and having the best arm. He'll be starting from day 1, so it's a name you'll be hearing a lot of.

 

RB Jesse Dailey
hvVv0xc.png

Jesse Dailey will redshirt in his first season. He's a bit slow at 82 speed, but he might be able to make some plays as a goal line/short yardage runner throughout his career. Definitely the power back type.

WR Rodney Cooper
dryKZLp.png

Looking at the depth chart, it looks like with both Antonio Nunn and Daniel Lee graduating after this season that Cooper will step in next season as the #1 (as Charlie Jones still plays the slot/TE Hybrid). He'll be reshirting this year though, so we look forward to what's to come from Cooper.

TE Travis Hardinc8Lf7aH.png

Zac Lefevbre has made some really good plays for us so far, and will certainly be a huge part of the offense this season as well, but Travis Hardin is absolutely his heir apparent. He's a balanced TE with some blocking and some catching skills, like Cooper, we won't see him this season, but expect big things from him next year.

G Brandon Daniels*

9KDNgXw.png

While not technically a freshman, JUCO SO transfer Brandon Daniels is immediately thrusted into the starting lineup at 76 Overall with 3 of our guards from last season having graduated. The coaches want him to try to put on a bit of weight at 6'4" 263 having converted from TE at his Junior College.

G Ray Foster

ZHDHqAo.png

Ray Foster is the type of player Coach Posloszny would usually redshirt, but due to a lack of depth he's going to be ready and waiting for his chance to get some early reps. He's considerably bigger than Daniels measuring in at 6'6" 302 lbs but his technique doesn't quite match up just yet.

DT Lonnie Irby

byw1Yws.png

Irby has some room to add weight to his frame as well (6'1" 289) given that he doesn't have the natural agility and quickness of some of the other DTs on the team. Optimally he adds some weight and plays like a nose tackle for us as he excels at Run Stuffing.

DE Justin Roberts

ISB6QMK.png

First of the dynamic young pass rushing duo, Justin Roberts looks to end up being a very high draft pick who is a pass rush specialist. At 81 overall, he will be a huge playmaker, and he gets to learn from an excellent older player in Taylor Riggins.

DE Brent Mills

aRv8Rwz.png

(Back in blue now) The other half of the deathly defensive duo, Mills is a much more well rounded Edge player. He'll also sit this season with the Redshirt and learn behind Malcolm Koonce who is set to graduate after this season.

OLB Randy Wade

mAYcvAa.png

Wade seems to be a promising young LB. He excels in coverage so maybe moving him to the weakside is in his future. He has adequate speed, but his acceleration is off the charts at 98.

FS Ricky Chavez

lSxV4lU.png

The F*** you looking at? Ricky Chavez has a meanstreak and will talk s*** until the last whistle blows (and even beyond). Both he and Mike Jones were recruited as strong safeties but with Chavez being the superior player in coverage, it made more sense for him to be the future starter as a center fielder.

SS Mike Jones

iFOwwac.png

Almost like a 4th linebacker. Mike Jones is 6'3" 220 lbs, and comes in as a freshman with an 87 Hit power rating. Dude is the deadly but silent type. If you try to get up in his face, you won't get the opportunity to talk smack with him again.

 

(I forgot to take a picture)

CB Jonathan Wilson

A well rounded Corner who will redshirt this year but then start as the #2 or #1 corner for the next few seasons after. He's good in coverage but his sped is a little lacking.

A lot closer than I was hoping or against a team of this caliber. I don't know how to defend the kind of offense they run, it was easier in older NCAA games, but for some reason I can beat their O-Line and their QB just gets free no matter what formation I play, whether I blitz or contain, it didn't really matter. Glad to be past these guys frankly.

I think there's a very real chance that this is the most rushing yards I've given up in any dynasty I've done so far. We continue to be unstoppable on 3rd/4th down. We had 3 turnovers that ended drives. Kemp got injured for a moment and fumbled but he returned the next drive.

Really felt more explosive on offense than it did last season. Kemp has the mobility of Dom Johnson, and has the best arm on the team as a freshman. James Patterson is so much more shifty than Kevin Marks. Defense didn't play up to my expectations though frankly. We were consistently gashed in the running game.

 

Next, week 4, we take on our first American conference opponent, the University of Southern Florida Bulls.

Chris Smith is at the bottom only because I'm not certain if I should continue going after him. I'll leave him on the board for one more week.
I feel pretty good everywhere else except LaMar Beck is going to be a long drawn out battle probably.

Got a pair of great receivers I'm excited for this time around and finally an upgrade at kicker. One of the lower end athletes will probably be put at RB.

Things went well despite Kemp's 2 picks. Defense played well. I did go for 2 at the end of the game because the crowd was booing that I decided to pass on 3rd and Goal from the 2 yard line with ~45 seconds left to go (USF was using their timeouts). Keep booing me, get good USF.

So yeah, I did go for it on 4th down 6 times (and they didn't stop me lol). Offense clicked well, but special teams were disappointing in this game. Part of the reason I go for it on 4th down as often as I do is because unless I'm in the redzone, there's no hope for our kicker to make a field goal, Kick Power is doodoo.

Antonio Nunn had one hell of a game. Defensively no one really had a notable game this time around. Only 1 sack on the day and no turnovers. 


Next time, we're taking on Matt Forte University (AKA Tulane)

Really the biggest thing is just that it seems in the game that the best way to stop the run is to hell with whatever personnel the CPU wants to run out there, just stack the box and send pressure if you think they're going to run most of the time. Everything else was pretty standard for us this game.

Kemp really didn't need to pass all that much this game, pretty much always starting in good field position between kickoffs, and Wankeith Akin's 2 picks. Aapri Washington has been a great returner for me.

Houston, we have a problem.

Houston is a talented team that doesn't seem to be getting coached very well. Their QB has abysmal numbers on the season.

GAME SUMMARY
1st Quarter
6:49 - TD - BUFF, Aapri Washington (102 Yd KO Return)
3:11 - TD - BUFF, Charlie Jones (8 Yd Catch)
2nd Quarter (14-0 BUFF)

3rd Quarter (21-3 BUFF)
5:18 - TD - BUFF, Tyrone Hill (58 Yd INT Return)
3:27 - FG - HOU (50 Yards)
4th Quarter (28-6 BUFF)
5:07 - TD - BUFF, Daniel Lee (8 Yd Catch)

Scoring Summary

Since their QB had terrible numbers on the season I decided to play defense the way I did last game and force him to beat us by taking away the run.

It's not like they didn't have any success, they had more first downs and more offensive yards, but they had 3 turnovers and failed to convert twice on 4th down. 2 other times they went for field goals, a lot of unfinished drives, it's actually pretty crazy I've never seen that level of production lead to so little in the end.

Kemp had a good game, not big on the yardage side of things but that's not a big deal. Really the defense and special teams shined here. SS Tyrone Hill was flying all over the field on this game (he also had a fumble recovery for another TD that was reviewed and overturned, Darn). Aapri Washington had a huge kickoff return for a TD right out of the gate.


Tomorrow I'll do 2 more games, UCF and East Carolina. ARRRRGH

Had to give up on ATH Chris Smith.
The two WRs I'm going after are starting to get recruited by other teams, I think I'll probably be able to hold on to one of them but not both, I'm wondering if I should let go of one of them.
Brian Henry is being listed by the game as a DBack at his 72 rating but I'm very confident he's actually like 78 or so as a WR so his rating is misleading.
Anthony Moore and Joe Ransom are in similar boats, they both would like be higher rated at receiver. 
I've been scouting just about every O-Lineman I can that hasn't made up their mind but no one is really higher than 67. Keep hoping I'll find a gem but no such luck.
ATH Eddie Fogle is a lineman. he's 6'5 288 Lbs, but scouting athletes doesn't tell you their blocking skills, so my guess is as good as yours.

 

Ultimately, should I give up on one of those WRs that bigger schools are now recruiting? I may end up with an overabundance of WRs due to the Athletes being better than their OVR indicates from scouting. I kinda really want Fogle for some reason tbh.

For reference, here are the notable numbers on Nick Brooks and Terrell Jacobs respectively.

Terrell Jacobs 93 54 79 93 80 89 78 73 71 88 76 64
