  Back with Jim Moore of the Ukon Football Coaches. So it's usf in at
• 0:04
  the rent On Saturday coach. They're three and four. They put a lot
• 0:08
  of points on the board, but bore do they give up some points?
• 0:11
  They gave up fifty six to UAB, fifty six to FAU, and strangely
• 0:17
  only seventeen to Alabama. How do you figure that they are capable of really
• 0:24
  great things offensively and defensively. They have done a tremendous job of attacking the
• 0:29
  transfer portal and bringing in some players from big time programs that have really helped
• 0:34
  them. They just had a little inconsistency and you know when it's gone downhill
• 0:39
  for him, as you see by a couple of those scores, has gone
• 0:42
  downhill. But they're a very, very very capable team. They're incredibly talented
• 0:47
  football team. You look around their roster from their defensive line to their secondary,
• 0:52
  to their linebackers, to their offensive line, their quarterback, the receivers,
• 0:55
  there running backs. They've got talent everywhere. And they're big, they're
• 0:58
  fast, they're physical life. Like I said, you know, almost their
• 1:00
  entire offense was recruited by Power five teams and ended up transferring in and so
• 1:07
  we're talking about one of the more talented teams that will face you know,
• 1:11
  of the teams that aren't Power five. So you know, when they're on,
• 1:14
  they're on. You know, they've just had a couple of times when
• 1:17
  it's it's slipped away from them, and that happens sometimes in this sport.
• 1:21
  Yeah, they have a common opponent. They beat Rice forty two twenty nine.
• 1:25
  Their quarterback number seventeen Byram Brown ran fourteen times for almost one hundred yards
• 1:30
  in that game. He's had one hundred and sixteen carries, six seventy eight
• 1:34
  seven touchdowns. So here we go again with another running quarterback. What kind
• 1:38
  of a player is he? He's very good. He's big, he's physical,
• 1:44
  he's got really good arm talent. He throws a great deep ball.
• 1:47
  I think he has really good pocket awareness, you know, and when you
• 1:49
  break down the runs and the run yardage, he's done it in all types
• 1:53
  of ways. He's done it with designed quarterback runs, he's done it with
• 1:59
  polls on your on your zone read game, and then he's done it with
• 2:02
  scrambles. So he presents presents a real challenge to us, and we have
• 2:08
  to be great in our rush lane so that he can't get out. We
• 2:12
  have to do a great job in their zone read game, uh you know,
• 2:16
  of of making sure that we're staying square at the line of scrimmaging great
• 2:21
  with our eyes. And then you know, they do a good job of
• 2:23
  getting an extra blocker and using him in there in there to quarterback designed running
• 2:28
  games and so you know, we have to be able to beat blocks.
• 2:30
  We have to find a way to add players in to the run game when
• 2:35
  he's carrying the ball. So it's a heck of a challenge. And uh,
• 2:38
  you know, they take a ton of shots down the field during the
• 2:42
  game. He's gonna throw the ball deep eight or nine times a game,
• 2:44
  which is you know, a lot. Doesn't sound like a lot, but
• 2:46
  it is a lot. So we have to we have to really play well
• 2:51
  in order to keep you know, keep this thing contained. About a minute
• 2:54
  left with Jim Mora. The wide receivers must be blazing fast. Naim Simmons,
• 3:00
  Ye're both five to ten. The two guys that make most of the
• 3:01
  catches Nam Simmons five ten two, Sean Atkins five ten, one seventy two.
• 3:07
  These guys are all over the place. How do you contend with them?
• 3:10
  Well, they spread the field like they You're going to see splits that
• 3:14
  are almost to the boundary, and they make you defend the width of the
• 3:17
  field as well as in the length. You don't condense the field for you
• 3:21
  at all. It's about, you know, stand tight on your man,
• 3:23
  making sure you keep the ball in front of you. You have to be
• 3:27
  able to make tackles in the open field. You have to contest throws and
• 3:30
  be able to you know, win some of the fifty to fifty balls.
• 3:32
  So we really have to be on point. We have to do a great
• 3:36
  job of communicating because you know, they're the third fastest team in college football
• 3:40
  in terms of getting a snap off, so you know, they put a
• 3:43
  lot of pressure on you that way to get lined up, get your calls
• 3:46
  made and execute. And we've had some work at that, you know,
• 3:50
  playing teams that have gone fast, but they put a lot of pressure on
• 3:53
  you that way. So it's going to be a great challenge for us,
• 3:57
  and I think our guys will go out and they'll play hard, they'll play
• 4:00
  well. Right We're hoping for another victory. Yukon trying to string a couple
• 4:02
  together start the second half of the season. As always pleasure coach Jim Moore
• 4:08

• 4:12
