MSU/UAB unit breakdown (unabridged)

Solid analysis. I will be happy if we can:

1) Get Hoyer in a rhythm. A 55-70% day would be great.

2) Control the mental game: Limit turnovers (I expect fewer INT's because we won't be passing as much) / and not take stupid penalties.

3) Pick up 2nd/3rd and 1/2's on the ground which leads to:

4) Clock management. My biggest pet peeve of when we play scUM is that starting about halfway through the 3rd quarter they just run the ball over and over. So that by the time they end the drive, it's the fourth quarter and they're up by 2 scores (see 2005 game).
