Defense’s biggest issue now is finishing plays. They’ve been getting in front of the ball carrier and they’ve been in position after the catch. Problem is they’re biting hard on the first move and they end up grabbing for air. Too many yards after the catch and after contact. If SJSU wants to run the 2 yard out, let them - but don’t let them turn it into 12.
Offense needs to find a way to slow down the rush. Mateer is mostly handling it OK, but he has plays where he’s not seeing the field because of the pressure. Shorten up the routes, run more crossing patterns and mesh under. Use the TE. Once they step back, run.
