Go watch the game tapes. We played back and let teams dink and dunk on us. We blitz but play soft coverage behind it. We lead the nation in sacks and picks for a reason though, very opportunistic defense. We rarely get beat for long plays, and let teams drive till the red zone, where we have the best defense in the nation.
Not sure why we do it. Our corners should be fine in press coverage but it seems outside of Henderson they don't fully trust them. They pressed a lot more vs Tenn, then a lot vs Auburn as well and it significantly improved the pass defense numbers.
I think Burrow will pass 300 yards on us. The key is forcing mistakes and continuing to have stellar defense in the red zone.
Hopefully we press more though and don't continue to let teams dink and dunk like we did the first few games. It was annoying as shite.

Of course you do. You've played Miami (#113), Kentucky (#115), Tennessee (#80) and Auburn (#71) in Red Zone Offense along with 2 cupcakes. Wanna guess who is #1?

Saw this yesterday you got 10 against two freshman OT at Miami and the rest was from the two division 2 schools you played. I didn’t see the Auburn stats but come on man :
