McNeese played lots of true freshmen at EIU and plans to play even more. Lack of team cohesion and leadership, a defense that can't stop the run, and a sporadic offense are haunting the Cowboys.
We don't have the studs on the defensive line to play the 3-3-5. I remember in the past, our offense's mouth watered when we played teams playing 3 man fronts because we knew we could run all over them. Now the shoe is on the other foot.
