[NU Sports] Cardiac Cats, pt. XIII

[Jonathan Hodges]

The problem isn't necessarily the DBs (except on that last second TD of the
first half) but the D-Line who had zero pressure on the QB for most of the
day - during the second half they stepped it up but were still
inconsistent.  That was the most glaring observation I saw at the game
today.

Sutton looked okay, he was running along the sidelines for much of the game
and I would imagine that he should be okay for next week but the coaches
were being cautious (although he did come back in for one catch and long run
following the initial injury).
