I love my Blackcats, but our defense never plays a full game! Belfry didn't punt against us, we gave up 49 to Pike Central, and Betsy Layne were well on their way to a win! We need to come out and focus on defense all week in practice. I know these boys have the potential to win this game, but it comes down to how disciplined we are on Friday! GO BLACKCATS!

This Blackcat defense is atrocious. However, when you have 6+ players playing both sides of the ball, plus throwing 4 or 5 freshman out there that don't weigh 130 lbs soaking wet, then it's going to equal to problems all around.

A lot of the problems cannot be fixed as easily as we would like to seem. But I've seen plenty of times where Blackcat defenders have over pursued on blitzes and missed tackles that they certainly could've made, but they just lacked the simple fundamentals.

Fundamentals can never be expressed enough, as cat86 eluded to in a previous thread. Those are problems that can be fixed, and if they're not, then expect an early exit in the playoffs.
