Kirby always forces a team to play one handed.
2017 against Missouri, we took away their running game. We held them to 59 yards on 25 attempts (0 rushing TDs). Missouri did beat us twice passing over the top, converted on a short field, and sustained 1 drive on the defense to finish with 250 yards in the air and 4 passing TDs.
2018, we wanted to take away Drew Lock. We cut him to 47% completion, 4.6 ypa, 0 TDs, and 1 INT. However the running game mustered 4 rushing TDs on 172 yards. (This was when Rochester was NT before Jordan Davis cracked the rotation).
2019, we schemed the running game and allowed Taylor Powell the opportunity to beat our DBs one on one. Mizzou ran for 50 yards at 2.08 per attempt. Powell completed 34% of his passes for 4.8 ypa for 80 yards. Half of that was to Nance on underneath stuff and half to Albert O in man coverage.
All of that to ask... do we try to shut down Briles and alpaca in the passing game? Or take away the run game and see if Franks can make enough plays against our DBs for them to put up 7s?

I suspect we just overwhelm all facets of their game given a massive talent differential and a first year coach.

I would imagine that we'll take away Boyd and the run game and make the Alpaca beat us through the air.

Franks was clueless against our pass rush in 2017 and 2018. He'll be worried every time he calls a pass play.
