Tackling is effort. When the other team is giving incredible effort and you’re not they’re going to break your tackles.

You tell any current or former player anywhere you missed 29 tackles because of the coaches and see how well that conversation goes.
I agree, but what about the dancing? Out guys dance good, no? LolBeing at both the VT and GT games -The body language of the teams suggested the underdogs were the fired-up teams and not so much our guys.
Easy to look physical running through arm tackles.It doesn't go very well, that's why several of them were pretty vocal about the players after the game.
Mason is a tough runner, but he averaged 4.something yards after initial contact. That's crazy.

You get this when there is Incompetence in coaching.
THIS^^^Right. It's coaching.
The guy who built this defense and had them atop the nation over the past few years—he suddenly forgot how to coach and all his players as a result have forgotten how to tackle or play with any passion.
DJ Ivey taking a nap on a fake punt or getting burned on the subsequent touchdown; that's all "coaching". Forget the the was a 4-star prospect out of Homestead who has been playing the sport his whole life—it should take coaches telling him to pay attention on a fake punt and to actually stay with his man, instead of just lurking in no man's land with nothing to do.
These kids know better and they're simply not doing fundamental things; things that they were doing a year ago under Diaz and things they've been doing their entire football lives.
