What’s the deal with Duke potentially knowing our signs?

It seems like Fran briefly alluded to it in his presser. Anyone with additional insight?
Mensah checked down to a screen on every blitz pretty much. I thought our blitz packages looked alot like what we ran at Clemson so not so surprising.

Difference is Mensah made plays like he could be a guy playing on Sunday and Klubnick played like a guy that will be working at a Chic Fil'A on Sundays.

That makes a whole lot of sense. Had the perfect screen called each time.

What is surprising is why our defense wouldn’t have adapted to that …
 
I knew the Chic FilA Sunday comment would good more debate than the. I think we all needed the distraction from hammering the program.

Seriously though, some of their play calls against our D were uncanny. I mentioned it during the game thread because it happened so often. It was noticeable.
 
Robinsons inability to adjust in game is brutal. He either has a good game plan and the opposing team doesn’t adjust to it really, or you get a smart OC like Duke has & adjusts on the fly. It resulted in Duke throwing check downs the entire game for 20 yards a play, which made erob basically shart his pants.

Opposing OC & DC’s are basically playing chess every game and erob is definitely at level 1. we make some teams coordinators look like Magnus Carlsen

Is it me... or our CBs are usually so much farther off the line of scrimmage than opponents WRs?

The DL is the problem. The DL, outside of Tank, is not particularly good at stopping the run, containing the edge, or getting to the QB. Would be nice if we could do 2 of those 3 and have only one weakness. We blitz more, but a good coach and experienced QB... with a decent OL... can put it where the blitzer came from. Not sure you need signals to figure that out.
