Our defense struggles a lot with true dual threat QBs like Hurts and Knight. Knight isn't a great passer or runner but they make up for it by having elite receivers.

Bama beat us with their elite defense and put us behind the 8-ball the whole game.

I think we match up better with Auburn because they don't have a true DT QB. White is a pretty damn good passer but I don't think we have to play QB contain with him like we did Knight and Hurts. Our corners are pretty good but our LBs aren't good in coverage.

Hopefully we can force White into more difficult throws and limit big plays in the running game. Kerryon is legit.

If only we could somehow sew White's head onto JF3's body this week, we could be onto something

Tell that to Dan Mullen LINK

"A good decision maker, accurate passer, very, very willing runner," Mullen said on Monday. "By that I mean productive, willing runner. He may not be the game-breaker that some guys are but reminds a lot like Dak Prescott was as a runner for us, where he's going to go get you some tough gritty yards when he needs to and can extend plays and make things happen with his legs when he needs to."
