How will the Ags stop the Dak Attack?

Their defense was exposed yesterday the same way the 2014 defense was exposed vs Arkansas. If teams attack the Aggies right up the middle their defensive ends can't use their athletic abilities and their LBs are not good enough to stop inside runs.

Aggies brought in John Chavis this year to try and replicate LSU's defenses over the past few years and they have improved all the way to 61st in total defense through 4 games.

LSU's #1 defense in 2014 and 15th ranked defense in 2013 both got abused by the Dak. How will the Aggies' defense fare when facing State's multi-dimensional attack?







I think that if MSU runs Dak they may run away with this early. Dak is deadly accurate with his passes which has been the downfall of a defense with poor DB play. Brandon Holloway should add an element of speed that other offenses like Arkansas didn't have. Aggies will have to defense outside speed runs and inside power runs with Dak and their power backs.

When LSU played MSU they sold out on stopping Dak which opened up the outside running game and the short passing game. That kind of attack wore down our defense and had them gassed in the 4th quarter. It should be interesting to see if A&M's defensive depth can match up for 4 quarters with the Dak Attack.

Feel free to add to your own analysis. I'd like to keep this focused on personnel, schemes, etc instead of a flame war. Thanks, guys.
