Not talked about by anyone here is how ecu and vt are playing defense.
Vt: they are attacking and blitzing the ecu spread attack. Give ecu credit - they won tough 1x1 matchups. But the key is that this is how you play defense - attack attack. Ecu is doing the same thing on defense. They are a 3-4 but they are attacking vt on every down almost never rushing only 3. On the other side of the ball, ecu is attacking the aggressive defense rather than running straight into it.
Make no mistake, vt defense will crush us
