Despite the name, it isnt sexy but it is such a good compliment to an explosive offense. Its demoralizing when scoring against a team is a long slog...when that team can score quickly. The more plays you have to run against a team with talent like Alabama, the more you are susceptible to a mistake.
It basically seems to be an aggressive version of bend dont break. I think it will be frustrating at times to watch teams drive the ball, but it will be highly successful in terms of winning games

This is a good take, but like he said, TBD. We still haven't faced a QB with a pulse yet.

We do seem to be forcing way more turnovers... All I got

Just need LBs to get off blocks, not over pursue and get north and south quicker to make plays

My biggest two concerns with the D are the number yards we give up after first contact and that we don’t seem to consistently set the edge very well…

Really hard to judge at this point.
At least they kept us in it last week.

Our run defense seems like it’s pretty garbage to be honest. Two straight games of backs reaching 5+ YPC

Wisconsin OLine may be legit with several future high draft picks.
USF with their huge QB who all he can do is run, and the defense being put in continually tough situations is kind of hard to judge the run D on.

The question will be how well they’ll hold up against a more traditional offense, like Georgia.
We lost a lot of first down snaps today.

Missing too many tackles.
On the one play where Moore caused a fumble after about a 10 yd run we weren't even set when they snapped the ball
