This is what I'm saying. If the Pitt game was just an outlier, I wouldn't say a thing but we do the same thing every week no matter the opponent. What defense doesn't even try to take away the other team's best weapon? We leave Tutu Atwell one on one with a safety playing 10+ yards off lol How...

I'm thinking long term, not just Pitt and we have same game plan defensively no matter what team we play. The current scheme has our players beat before the ball is even snapped. Clemson was a big test and that's why I brought them up.

But is it too much to ask from our coaches to put our guys in better position to make plays? In what world is it ok to cover Tutu, Rodgers and Addison with a safety from 10+ yards off?

Ok, defense was "good enough". Long-term that's not good defense. It's why it's not even a contest when we play teams like Clemson because "good enough" against Pitt's backup QB turns into a laugher against real teams. I'm happy we won but it's stupid and short sighted to ignore the constant...

We had 3 sacks not 5. Our D is aggressive up front but very passive on the back end with the soft zone and lack of jamming receivers on the outside. When we do play man we give slot guys a free release with a safety covering them 10 yards off.
