re: Arkansas Rush Defense against non spread/non running QB offenses under Bert

The answer to the first one is that its Texas State.

And Ole Miss in 2014 ran a hurry up spread... passing attack. Which is what Texas State ran against us.

We can do defend that well enough now because we have a good DB coach and we finally stopped giving receivers a ten yard cushion on every down. Ole Miss was generous to gift us with the combo of a Freeze Brainfart and a Bad Bo game all at once.

Add in even the smallest threat of a running QB and our defense completely freezes though, especially when it is up tempo. Robb Smith would make a pretty good NFL DC, because there running QBs more often then not means a QB that can scramble if the pocket collapses. In the SEC West he's a liability because he and his defense are completely lost in defending that style of play.
