Say what you will about the level of competition to this point, but I have personally never seen anything like this at any level, as it's pretty evenly split between interceptions and fumbles. And our offensive players are doing great, especially Allar's willingness to throw it away instead of forcing.
And while it's maybe not as exciting as 50 yard bombs, seemingly always getting positive yards, and thus grinding down the opposing defense via time of possession, seems to be a winning formula. But let's forget about any more double passes!!!
As someone who has been critical at times, to this point in the season Franklin seems to be earning his very large salary on the field, and hopefully he and the AD are addressing any academic and/or behavioral shortcomings off the field.
If they can tighten up a little on the penalties (there have been some dumb ones) then this will be a team and season that we can be very proud of in terms of effort and execution, even if someone with better talent beats us.
