You are biased. The reason our defense was better was because our front 4 played much better and stayed in lanes. Beckwith couldn't get near the plays in the open field. His strength is supposed to be in stopping the run but he got trucked by the QB on one of Florida's TD's. If that was Welter there would have been 30 threads on it with gif's already.

Find the gif because he didn't get trucked. He fell down and lost leverage.

Yeah, people were unfairly targeting Welter's play.

Just note, no touchdowns up the middle of 40+ yards. In fact, just for fun, outside of Debose's rush, the longest rush in the game was 10 yards. I'd say massive improvement. If you want to put the Debose rush on Beckwith, fine. You'd also have to acknowledge that if Beckwith couldn't make that play, there's no way Welter could have.
