Let me explain one of the issues on the defensive side of the ball. It looks like our players thinking and not reacting. And not being able to play 100% all out. Thus making our players a step or two slower than our opponents. If you noticed how our players look to the sidelines for the defensive calls, giving the "what the call or hurry up signal". And they usually get the calls right before the offense take the snap. Thus having our players not set. Or trying to figure out where they should be. To correct this issue, they should simplify the defense. We already getting our doors blown off. Just let them line up and play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something is missing. One thing is strength. Our guys just look small. I see these DB's from other schools and they all have guns. Our guys just dont look that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys playing soft and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puts unnecessary delay into communications. Also, the playcalls are hot garbage, even though they are delayed til after getting a look at the offensive formation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you start hearing coordinators and coaches talking about what they "ain't got" to me that means they "ain't good". DL is not a new issue for USF been like that for a few years now. Can't really tell if the LBs are good or bad cause they been trying to shed off OL blocking them. Very few NFL LBs can do that. So on defense it's a scheme issue because it been the same issue for a few years and it's a known pain point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
