shyndy Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 sh#t, they should be more worried about Ganz than us about Talyor. I AM NOT JOKING. Nobody takes Ganz seriously except Ganz. Quote Link to comment
HuskerTrucker Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 duh...did anyone else notice what their offense actually put out Saturday against GT? I am not worried about their offense. their paltry 240 or so yards yesterday was a joke. This is how you get your butt handed to you... By underestimating the enemy... Never, ever, underestimate your opponent... Well, if my enemy don't have any more than a slingshot to use against me...not too worried about it really. They haven't shown any offense what so ever. Their defense is the only thing that has kept them competitive and given them a chance to win at all. I am confident that our offense has enough weapons to overcome their defense. I don't think their defense will outscore our offense, and that is the only way that they will beat us if our defense plays like they are capable of playing. Quote Link to comment

I agree, we definitely can't underestimate the Hokies offense. Yes, they may have looked crappy so far this year but believe me they can still score points. We need to pressure the hell out of Taylor, alter our looks and coverages and he will make some bad decisions and turn the ball over. Quote Link to comment
PhillyHusker Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 http://huskersgameday.com/2008/09/14/first...-late-at-night/ I think we should worry about him. He was a top dual threat QB prospect coming out of high school. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 We can't underestimate these guys because if we do they will make us pay and big! I say spying him is definately an option, but since he is not an accurate passer we definately want to make him pass the ball. Not being accurate is going to lend itself to turnovers for us.

dustinl15 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I counted at least six passes where he had a man wide open, but either overthrew it or underthrew it. Boy, if that doesn't doesn't bring back memories. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Secure the run game and make him pass. Keep constant pressure on him and see if he makes the "freshman" mistakes. Hit him hard and often. Quote Link to comment
bbhusker Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Tackle, tackle, tackle. Hammer on him and take away their run game, and then let him throw the ball to us. Once he can't move his team down the field, let them put Glennon in and blitz the hell out of him. He is a pocket passer: aka a sitting duck. Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Do whatever Bo did last year when VT played LSU. I think it was 45-7, and VT was better last year. Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Man spy and let the DE's pin thier ears back to disrupt timing to try and make him make quick pass decisions. I agree about the quick pass - that should be the goal. But I think that given his feet, you have to think "contain" first and foremost.. I'm not sure that a spy is necessary - and it pulls one man out of the normal scheme. This is a young guy that is a shaky passer. He isn't that conversant with the offensive scheme. I think you use the front 4 for contain, then bring the blitz from odd-ball angles. Don't overload on the blitz, though - the idea is to do just enough to make him get rid of the ball in a hurry. Mix up the coverages a bit. In other words, keep him in the pocket, give him some pressure from areas he's not expecting - and just enough pressure from the blitz - to force him into bad decisions.

HuskerInKC16 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Spy with Glenn! Quote Link to comment
zE bOp Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Clock him a bunch when he runs 2 force him 2 pass--then clock him when he passes... Quote Link to comment
General Blackshirt Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Bo doesn't like using "spys"...correct? Quote Link to comment
Hokie Nation Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 After watching our offense under our current offensive coordinator, the best thing to do would be to blitz the crap out of us. Every Tech fan knows that our OC ( I'm not going to attempt to spell his last name) can tell you that he is incapable of calling plays that make a defense pay for blitzing. We have no offensive identity with him considering how he will not continue doing something even if it is successful. An example of this is how we completely abandoned running the ball with Brandon Ore against Kansas in the Orange Bowl. Our defense still struggles with tackling and playing assignment football. Our corners are the real strength of the defense considering that they will get physical in run support and lockdown receivers. Our d-line continues to get no pressure on the quarterback and our 5th year Senior linebackers just look slow on the field. Bo shut down our offense last year by blitzing which will probably not change. To be honest, I don't have a lot of expectations for this game anymore. Quote Link to comment
