I love BV but our defense in our last 3 playoff games


Jan 2, 2021, 12:29 AM

wasn’t very impressive. Maybe we were spoiled by the Wilkins years?

Class of ‘71. Went through “rat season” and glad I did.


absolutely we were

they cause enough havoc that it helped out the secondary, and also, masked the fact that BV probably relies on stealing signs or waiting to the last minute to make his calls. our safeties have been getting burned for years, and I dont think its a talent issue. I think they are staring at the sideline trying to get the call when the ball is snapped. ive seen them doing it hundreds of times, and more often than not they are bailed out by the power rangers pressuring the QB to make a bad throw. but I could be wrong.

Check our stats since we went to a 3-3-5 vs. 4-3-4....

Yeah, I don't think it's stealing signs or anything. We just haven't had the talent. Most of the year we didn't have Davis and the only support he had was Bresee, who is great...but even Davis is just a sophomore. XT was supposed to be 1st team ALL American and Foster not far behind. So we relied on true freshman who, probably missed some assignments and we were pretty bad all year at sealing the edges.

We made it to the CFP 6 times. Only twice have we not played for a natty. I'll take it.

they were killing us on the stretch plays running the ball, that is just inexperience and lack of discipline on the DLine, not a talent issue.

Well one of his gimmicks is to slant the lineman and teams have figured it out. The cutbacks and misdirection killed us tonight and our LBs weren't good enough to cut it off. We've got to have better LB play or this will happen against Elite teams. Doesn't show up against Wake and NC State , but this is a whole different ballgame.

We’ve gotten too and comfortable...

Over the past 3 years we started playing guys on both sides of the ball who wouldn’t make the roster of other major CFB programs.
