"We feel that whatever qb is taking snaps in the game is the one who will be running the offense."?





And what was that a response to?

Steve Eubanks of FoxSports.com asked about preparing a defense for two different styles of quarterback, as with Tim Tebow and John Brantley.

Miles: "We're preparing against Florida's offens, and we feel like whichever quarterback will take snaps there will operate with that offense. There's enough variability in that offense that gives you enough to prepare. It's an imperfect time, certainly. You don't know exactly the characteristic of the quarterback that's taking the snap, so you put yourself in the best position, you see where the offense dictates the quarterback's play, and you try to predict it."

The Palm Beach Post's Ben Volin asked whether the differences between Tebow and Brantley are so great they require two defensive game plans.

Miles: "Well, it's ... uh, yeah. Again, our focus is what Florida does, and I would guess that their players would expect that there would be some similarities in the calls. So -- again, imperfectly -- we're preparing for what appears to be the personality of the team that we're playing."
