UF felt good enough about their DBs against our WRs to leave them on an island and make Mason beat them while moving 8-9 in the box to stop the run.

Didn't seem like we wanted to go all-in to stop the run at times and our lack of speed at ILB really hurt us.

I've been saying for a couple of weeks now, the way to stop our running game is a simple numbers game. If we go with a basic I-formation set then we have 5 down linemen, 1 TE, and 1 FB blocking, a total of 7 blockers. If a D mans up our WRs and trusts their DBs, that's 7 players trying to block 9. It's what happens when there is no threat of a passing game.

That's what happens when you have Mason as a QB, too. Schools don't fear him or our receivers. I am not so sure that if MM had more help that Mason would be any more effective. He is terrible. Just plain terrible.

I think we tried but they were running mostly out of the spreaqd, so we had to put a DB on the WR. Out interior played well at times, but their RB would just bounce it outside, and all hell would break loose after that.
