Remember Ronnie Bradford?

I don’t see any real leaders on the offense and defensive sides of the ball. We’re definitely missing some sort of identity. The players are just going through the motions.
 
Realistically Best probably prepared the most for this game through the offseason/coming into fall. It’s like having a mediocre season but beating the cats makes it not so bad. Keeps boosters and fans happy. The defense just looked totally confused all game and Best knew he had to keep them on their heels to win. Just couldn’t quite get it done. How many years has be been at eastern? He knew full well the importance of the game was more than just a conference opener. The defense isn’t last year’s, but it’s not as bad as it seemed for one quarter tonight.

It was really bad for 2 quarters, 5 games in and I think most people would say it’s regressed, and I don’t believe it’s because of the competition

Huh? Over 700 yards total offense and 52 points without any leaders. Fife, Ostmo, Gilman and Bergen aren't leaders and just go through the motions. You really have it.

Ran the numbers, when not counting the Morehead State game (they're a bad Pioneer team) were on Average giving up 432 Yards and 33.75 points a game so far this season.

Besides the 4th Q, what was the other "really" bad quarter? 1 TD ini each of other 3 quarters. Just under or over 100 yards of TO given up.

Since we're cherry-picking, without the 4th Q against EWU, UM gave up 21 points and 300 yards. Sometimes games turn into high-scoring track meets. This was one of those games. EWU was very motivated as the 4th Q went on, at least on O. Their D got worn down.
