Blessing in disguise?

If... And I stress IF...changes on defense occurs and it gets us to a conference championship, last night was worth the angst

We will revisit this after next week.

I don't think the changes would happen fast enough

Taggart did change the offense after the Memphis game last year so he very easily could change the defense since he knows the 4-2-5 is not effective at all

If we don't go back to the 4-3 we are screwed. Against Navy all 11 guys should be up close and we should blitz 90% of the time.

4-2-5 is the right scheme for a lot that we face. Obviously not against Navy. But a 4-3 isn't going to be the answer with the way AS and NH have been playing. Just adding another linebacker won't be the fix. It's what they plan on doing with those LBs in space/in the "scheme" and if they can friggin tackle.

I like my blessings not to come in the disguise of a Temple beat down, but hey I'll take a blessing.

We are running a lot of different 4-3 sets with no to some success recently.  The problem is the inconsistency at end(players) and not getting off the field on third down(coaching).  A 4-3 won't fix everything.

FSU should have been the wake up call. I don't see much changing this season

If we do, and they adjust, they'll just throw it over our heads

I wish we had coaches who were experienced enough (and players who were able enough) to adjust on the fly, from drive to drive, as needed
