The issue was how little push our DL got vs how much we blitzed.


do you know for a fact that its not technique? Is it possible our dline is taught to absorb blockers and allow LB's and DB's to make plays?

With regards to blitzing he is not a blitzing style DC. With out DB's and lack of pass rush up front wouldn't you think he would take more chances?

I blame Saban because his philosophy is and always will be you must effect the QB

People keep staying that but he hasn’t run a traditional 2 gap 3-4.

We want our DEs to attack. We definitely want our BOLB to attack.

They just haven’t been great at getting to the QB.

Plus I just Showed you how much pressure we’re generating with DBs and Lbs. We had more sacks by NON-Front 4 players than Clemson.

Idk what else you wanna see. Can you find me another Elite defense that generates most of their sacks outside their front 4?

Even a 3-4 defense?

You can cover 4 WR and blitz 8 and leaving your CBS with no over the top help is a huge risk.

except they dont. our run defense just had the worst opponents ypc number in years and its direct reflection of our dline not commanding the attention of the oline. our lb corp's ability(white in general) to shed blockers cleaned up a lot of the mess the dline created.
