That looked like it was the design of the run play they were running over and over again. Almost all of those big runs were the same play out of the exact same bunch formation. Smothers was letting the the DT go right past him and he was blocking the LB. Our FB, who lined up on the inside of the bunch was then coming across and picking up the penetration and the RB would have a huge hole because the DL was being too aggressive.

Yep. If that wasn't by design, Smothers has to be the worst center in the country

Obviously you don't know much about football and how it works. Just because there were huge holes doesn't mean that their Oline was good. The line was using the auburn push to their advantage and would just bump them off their line. Once that happens you all of a sudden have a hat on a hat with linebackers that are always going to be undersized and much smaller than the Oline. Arkansas also (smartly) changed their blocking scheme which threw the d off.... If u would watch u would see that fold blocks would come down on the over aggressive tackle opens up a huge hole ... After halftime and adjustments were made they run game couldn't get it going

Our D is scaring me right now. They seem to be stunting hard, or their OL is baiting them in and the run is going right at the hole they were at before crashing in.

I guess your coach should have explained to them the goal is to tackle the guy with the ball.
