I need to start defensively. Blitzing at colgate was improved butstill with little interior stunts. Ya gotta find a weak link in their oline and attack it. Gotta let dt go outside and de go inside or swap 1 shade and 3 shade on inside stunts or all 4 use otside litzes whil we send backer and safety inside. their is 100 years of history in blitzing. Gotta get better at it. Dline run game has to improve too. We gotta change the line of scrimmage 2 yards back. That way our lb s can come down hill and smack that sh outta people and it would be a 1or 2 yds gain. Lb has to really focus on downhill. If they pass stab ft in ground and get to your hook curl spots depending on where qb shoulders are. The good teams will still go after Samuel cause he is young. They have gotta mix up man to man and zone looks. Cant be 10 yds of cause your taelling them u dont think your good enough. Offense, we gotta run run run the damn ball. We have got to start pulling dudes like last year at end or we gotta get bigger dudes in. We have no FIRE off ball and move people mentality. Good running teams do. Please dont say RPO cause we dont have oline fast enough yet or strong enough to move them more than 3 yds off ball. Lets worry abou that latter ya know. More willis in power sets and some of that young kid with the moves , Hill. He shifty. Angelli can be good when he doesnt throw off back ft. The ball will sail when he does. Also gtta trust our guys to make plays cause we can catch the ball. What else do u guys think we need.
 
I would love to hear someone ask Fran why we don't run interior stunts. I do think I saw a couple vs Colgate, those may have been the first all season. But come on, where are they?

I also feel like when we run off-tackle we are far more successful than running between the tackles and should really attack the edge vs Clemson. Neutralize Heldt who according to Dabo is playing like the best Defensive Lineman they have. Woods hasn't played like a top 10 pick but at some point he may wake from his slumber. Even against UT it seemed we were better attacking the edge with our big tackles, I don't see the push needed from the interior OL.

Especially for Willis... who has power/speed. We have had some good interior runs by both Willis and Nixon... but I do think we need to mix it up a little.
 
I like it when a team changes tempo. Speed up, slow down, keep defenses guessing. Don’t let them get comfortable.
I think our offense works best when working quickly. The less of the "guys shifting around and looking to the sideline with 10 seconds on the play clock," the better. Then again, maybe someone can analyze the film and prove me wrong... maybe we do better in those plays. Just does not always feel like it.
