Overall, the key to beating this team is stopping the run. Their QB is apart of their running game, he rushed for 16att 108yds & 2TD's vs Northwestern. But otherwise, they use him sparingly to keep Defenses off balance.
Gotta stop Senior RB Shaun Wilson & RFr Brittain Brown, that's the key. You make them one dimensional & you simplify the game for the Defense. Their OL has 3 Redshirt Seniors, so they're a veteran bunch, but there's sacks to be had. We all know our Secondary has struggled, but their best WR is TJ Rahming, they also have a big 6'3 WR Chambers who they barely use.
Our Safety's have to be disciplined, their passing game is entirely set up off making LB's/S's hesitate on play action out the gun. It's mainly a one read & go Offense, they're not running anything too advanced, they beat you off precise execution, not much complexity.
For us on Offense, they have a pretty good pass rush, their best players are DT Mike Ramsay & LB Joe Giles-Harris. They stop the run well, but haven't faced a duo of RB's like Walton & Homer, they also gave up some big runs to UNC's QB, so Rosier should exceed well in this spot.
Their DB's are slow imo based on those games. They were routinely beat on Deep routes, if UNC had a better QB they would've beat them. Seniors S Jeremy McDuffie, Alonzo Saxton & their CB's are their weak link. CB Gilbert is solid, the rest not so much. Our WR's should eat these fools up, especially Ahmmon, Cager & Berrios in the slot.
I think we matchup well vs them, hopefully the short week galvanizes this Defense to come out ready to play. This is a team you need to get an early lead on, they've controlled the ball in every game, they pound the rock & win the TOP battle.
I think we win 37-24, Rosier should open up the run game for Walton/Homer & hope Richt takes some deep shots early. If Richards is 100% he should ball, but it's time to unleash Harley & JT, their CB's cannot run with these guys.
