Coach Talk

Fighting Chichiwawas
The key to success in football is creating mismatches. We not only doubled up Hilltoppers at RB (46.96 points to 22.1), we also doubled them at QB (31.24 to 13.1).
Hilltoppers
Unless Hilltoppers wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many chances" is not an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) collectively got a whopping 15 targets in Week 4. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group hauled in just nine balls.
