advantage. Vandy in that they had a ton of film on our guys but we didn't have much on their new offensive guys playing at Vandy. I'm sure we watched some film from New Mexico State but apparently they ran quite a bit of stuff that they didn't run at NMSU. Rutgers had a bye week (after only two games) so they had an extra week to heal and prep. The issue I had in both games was we were too slow to adjust defensively. The other way they were similar was that we gave away an early turnover that put us in a hole. Against Vandy it was the somewhat fluky interception by a DL on a screen. Against Rutgers it was the fumble on the punt return. It's worth noting too that Vandy executed their gameplan to near perfection in the first half. We only got three real possessions and one ended with a turnover. Meanwhile they controlled the ball and the clock while also building a multi-score lead. You couldn't have scripted it any better if you're Vandy. Don't get me wrong we probably should have still won both games but turnovers and penalties will kill you every time.
