UGA has some small personnel issues (we had a walkon play against Boise last season. ILB play stunk this season among Ogletree, Herrera, Gilliard, and Robinson).
The biggest issue is the scheme, though. We're split way too wide up on the line of scrimmage. If we're going to play with those wide splits, we need to be run blitzing the gaps just to cut down on space for the tailback. When we don't run blitz, we need the safeties crashing hard to give us the numbers to make the play. And if we face a team that has a good QB who can get the ball downfield (Bray, McCarron, Martinez) then we are setting ourselves up for big play failures.
Throw in our challenges with mobile QBs the past couple of seasons (outside pass rush getting too far upfield), and you have an entirely different set of issues to deal with as a DC.
