After last week was heavy on the lows, this week will be the exact opposite. Let's get right at it!!
HIGHS
Defensive line - Talk about bouncing back! Seven tackles for loss, six sacks and really just an all-around dominating performance. With the exception of the last 10 minutes of the second quarter Saturday, USU's defensive line disrupted everything the SJSU offense wanted to do.
Offensive playmakers - Kerwynn Williams might have been the big standout with his three touchdowns, but everyone is deserving of the props. Chuckie Keeton was on point with his throws all game and every one of Matt Austin, Chuck Jacobs, Travis Van Leeuwen and Kellen Bartlett had big catches in different spots, with all of them but Bartlett reaching the end zone. If scoring points against WAC defenses was at all a concern, these guys squashed that on Saturday.
Kyler Fackrell - Just unreal what this kid is doing... More on that here though.
LOWS
Pass coverage - Granted, San Jose State is No. 10 in the nation in passing offense, and easily the best passing team the Aggies have faced so far this year, but Louisiana Tech might be even better. Giving up 467 yards through the air is something that definitely needs improving on. Defense that's this good should not be giving up that much, even if they're completely shutting down the opposing run game.
I DON'T KNOWS
Interceptions - I don't know how the hands of USU's defenders could be as bad as they have been this year. There have been a handful of times now where a linebacker or defensive back had a ball hit them right in the chest or hands, but they weren't able to make the interception. Too many "what ifs" to be leaving out there. Gotta start turning these knock downs into actual interceptions.
