Agree with Bob.
I believe our greatest risk here is when a dejected defense wants to get in "a few last licks" on the offense. Nothing good can come out of this and it is a situation that will either injure a player or start a fight.
So it is imperative that the U "warn" (not coach) the defense that it is a foul to take a cheap shot at an offense player. If after the warning, the defense inappropriately contacts an offense after the knee is down, then I've got a problem with that player.
We've all seen it and can usually guess the player that will do this. Maybe we can't stop the action, but we should do everything we can to discourage this behavior and we should flag it immediately.
The real test is at the end of the season, the last game, a team on defense that has absolutely nothing to lose!
