UH isn’t ready to compete with that type of offense yet. Still 1-2 years away. Defensively, UH is almost there, but the offense doesn’t have the ability to score enough points until the Oline gets fixed.

In order for Fresno to lose the rest of the way, somebody is going to have to score 40+ and Fresno to have an off night on offense. Their schedule is ridiculously easy the rest of the way. Boise was their only quality opponent this year. Much like Boise was the only real quality opponent in 2007 for UH. UH played down to competition several times in 2007 but managed to eek out the wins.

Remember, JJ and SMU completely shut down Nevada in the bowl game last year. The way to beat the spread offense (whether is RnS or Oregon style) is if the Dline dominates without blitzing. Margus Hunt was in the backfield all game vs Nevada. Quick DLine pressure throws the rhythm off for the spread offense, then the back 7 are free to chase the ball carrier down. Just look at what Justin Houston did to the Eagles offense on Thursday. He single handedly disrupted the Eagles offense by getting to Vick early and often. Much like Nick Fairley did to Oregon in the title game a few years ago. Look at what the Georgia DEs did to UH in the Sugar Bowl. If Kennedy is the athlete a lot of people say he is, he could potentially do the same to Fresno, along with Kory and Castro next year. I think UH will have the tools to beat the octane spread teams in the coming years, as the DLine talent is getting much better.

One thing defenses should do more vs Fresno is make a better effort in batting down passes and obstructing passing lanes. A lot of what Fresno does is really quick throws so the ball is out of Carr’s hand before any pressure can get to him… What the DLine can do is get their hands up and disrupt the throwing lanes. Tavita Woodard did a great job of that vs USC with 3 deflections. Deflections are fun for the defense as it could lead to pick 6’s. Even better, if the passing lanes are obstructed, it will force Carr to hold the ball, which throws off the timing of the quick passing game.
