Besides the obvious (John Lynch not leading the defense), it was a crisp day at Dove Valley.

The first team offense moved the ball effectively on the second team defense.  The first team defense stifled the second team offense.  Order reigned. 

Noone got clotheslined. 

Noone left the team.

Tight End Brett Pierce made the catch of the day during 7-on-7 drills---a diving reception on a seam pattern that was whistled in by Jay Cutler.  Not too shabby.

Both offense and defense got some heavy thud in when the squads went into goalline drills.  Call it a draw---neither unit dominated the other.

Most of the players who spoke to the media today are still in a state of shock regarding Lynch. 

A cool breeze kept Dove Valley from being too oppressive.

Attendance still remains lower than in past years.

Tyler Polumbus (from CU) has a lot to learn if he wants to stick in the NFL.  However, his body SCREAMS "NFL right tackle".   Hopefully he sticks.

Finally, Spray-on sun block is easier to apply than the pasty white goo, and seems to protect just as well.  I highly recommend it.

CT.
