The D coordinator actually had made a change at one point and we held Auburn on 1 or 2 possessions. Then he outsmarted himself and went back to what he was doing in the first half, which wasn't working one bit.

Our DE's were made to rush the passer more than stop the run. Our LB's were lacking in speed. Why he thought he could go back to what he'd been doing the first half is beyond me.

Spot on Reedus, schematically though Steck has no clue on how to scheme vs the option, ala the Navy bowl game, sure the LBers were not athletic enough but that was compounded by the fact that they were in a formation that let AU OL climb to the 2nd level at will.

Same thing with the screen passes that never stopped working in the SC game.

Once DC makes a plan that's it. Doesn't matter how bad it's going or well something else is working.

Must be the ex marine in him
