Can my fellow DAWG brethren explain to me why Kirby Smart & Mel Tucker cannot get these defensive players to make tackles? I have never seen so many missed tackles. I am amazed those coaches cannot get this fixed or at least improved - been an issue ALL YEAR.
Snell and UK QB gonna run for 200+ if we don’t tighten it up.

Proper tackling is not an easy fix. You coach players to wrap up the ball carrier, but from high school and even in college kids grow up seeing other players launching themselves at ball carriers and making ESPN Highlight hits, and they get caught up in it. Their teammates ooooo and ahhhh at these type hits and it reinforces them to launch instead of making controlled wrap up tackles.
Breaking that habit is very difficult and takes time.
