In the interview Joe talks about a unique defensive scheme. Anybody know what to expect that's different from our defense?

Heard they are moving to 4 down lineman, but not sure about the unique aspect.

My hope and prayer for the upcoming season is that Defense gives up fewer yards per rush attempt than the Offense earns on the other side of ball.
If you do that consistently, you will win a few games.

FCS Kickoff tonight (Aug 24):

6:00 PM on ESPN:  North Alabama vs Southeast Missouri State.  Game played in Montgomery, Alabama.
 
 

Just a quick bit of "housekeeping" as we're wrapping up the season.

This year, we averaged 2850.6 attendees per home game, which is only slightly lower than last year and the lowest since 2019's 1-10 season.
Attendance was brought down quite a bit by the cold and rainy game against Tennessee State when we only had 1,459 fans.
Our 4,827 that was at the home opener against McKendree was the highest attended game since Homecoming 2022 (7,271).

Our average attendance was 45% of our total enrollment. Other than 2022 (where we somehow hit 57%), that's the highest since 2016.
