That was fun, if nothing else. I know this was an FCS opponent, but our first shutout in a decade is something to celebrate! The real measuring stick is next week, but let’s praise the defense for an outstanding game.

Secondary: A

A high grade, but when you generate two interceptions and a house call it is hard to find many faults. The secondary smothered Lamar’s receivers, and really did a good job minimizing the dumb penalties this time around (until the backups came in).

I know we will never have such a dominating performance again from this group, but I liked the effort displayed.
