How is the pass rush? Seems like we have attacked the edges more with our running backs (when Lane decides that we should actually run the ball) and have had success. But Hurts is still very much a freshman and makes mistakes when under pressure.

The interior pass rush is decent, but the pass rush from the edge has not been good since Mathis went down.

UW has one of the lowest blitz percentages in the country. It's a very similar style defense to the Seahawks. Rush 3 or 4, play really good coverage, don't give up big plays, and force a team to execute a lot of plays in a row in order to put together a solid drive.

The LBer core took a hit went Azeem Victor went down. He was our leading tackler and an absolute stud. There's an outside chance me makes it back, but I'm not counting on it. UW has one of the best secondaries in the country though.

I'm thinking our game plan will be to establish the pass early to loosen up the secondary for our running game. Which will piss every Alabama fan off until we start having success running the ball in the 3rd and 4th quarter

And for Browning, obviously he is an elite quarterback and teams have always done well against us when their QBs are great. But hasn't he been turning the ball over more recently? With Alabama's ability to create turnovers and then take those turnovers to the house, we may see some more NOTs for Bama.
