When almost every team is a “bad matchup” for us, what does that say?

It says, time to change the definition of a “bad matchup” and instead only refer to “good matchups” as the exception. The common denominator in all of these bad matchups is that the teams have a lot of depth when it comes to length and quality 5’s. We have very little depth anywhere, and we sure as hell don’t have it at the 5. Florida State is not a good team. They will probably get blown out by the next team they play (whoever that may be, unless it’s BC). Young has to recruit differently (greater length, annd more of it), and he has to insist that every player care about defense. There were major breakdowns today and the guys just seemed to pack it in really quickly in the second half. Not good, Bob.
