Their OL still run blocks "well" but it's not as good as the previous 2 years. Pass Pro is shaky especially now that their cheat sheets have been taken away.

TACKLING will be huge, can't let Corum get those extra 3-4 yards constantly by not bringing him down soundly right away

Their WRs are ass, Wilson has a lot of TDs but he's not really dynamic, most the damage he does is closer to the end zone when they get there by methodically pounding the ball, can't let that TE Loveland constantly run wipe open on 3rd/4th downs all day though like Maryland did. Need to have someone close to his ass at all times since he seems to be Spin Pass' go to now, especially on key plays.

I said this a few weeks ago… but I think last years plan (with far more zone and far less man) would be the way to go. Their skill including their TE doesn’t worry me in the slightest.

We cannot let them run the ball. We have to force them to do what they did last year. Which was throw to win because with these DBS? That’s not happening this time around.

The issue last year was we couldn’t make plays in the back end and we gave up numerous back breaking plays. I believe this is the best secondary in the country and we need to trust them so that our front 7 can get help.

We’ve got to trust the secondary so that we can focus on their run game. We have got to take that away or we probably aren’t winning.

Their offense is so similar to ND in a lot of ways. Pedestrian WR, good TE, big OL but McCarthy isn't as good as Hartman.
