Don't let them get that close in the first place Can't have 3rd and short when every run is 7 yards. Big brain. Called the Get Bent and Break scheme. Reminds me of Chin years 1 and 2 stepping his 175 lb free safeties into the box on short yardage situations. That position became a pancake highlight reel with a 0% stop rate. On a serious note, I'd like to be 295+ in the middle, with functional strength vs (Duval's 1975 philosophy), and twitchy edge/LB's that can hold in the run and attack a QB. Quote Link to comment

Dude flat out knows defense. This is a good hire IMO. This 100%. SDSU Aztec fan here. Expect to see pressure, pressure, pressure from your D, backers and safeties coming almost every play from any angle. Very confusing to an offense. You will need good cover corners because they will be in man coverage more often than not. High risk, high reward defense. 3 1 3 Quote Link to comment

One has to hope that our dbs don't play 10 yards off their guy on the line when they play man bc the underneath stuff hurt us bad last year. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

And mixing it up. Won't forget when Purdue got that game winning touchdown late and their WR said in the post game interview "we knew exactly what they were going to do" 1 Quote Link to comment

I’m excited to see pressure, pressure, pressure because we have sorely lacked this for the last decade. Agree we need some lockdown CB’s. I love this style and it fits the Blackshirts IMO but now we just got to get the players. 3 Quote Link to comment

Recently we made too many backup QBs look like Heisman contenders. Would love to see results commensurate to their actual status as not the best on their own team. 1 Quote Link to comment

Admittedly, we do not see the quality of teams week in and week out that Nebraska does, nor do we have the athletes that you guys do, so I am very curious to see how this scheme fares with B10 caliber teams and athletes. Hoping to see Nebraska return to the teams I remember from the days of my youth, and I go back to the days of Bob Devaney. 3 2 Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 To me, it seems like the scheme might be different, but it doesn't seem like the personnel it needs is too terribly different than what we have now. Seems like a good scheme for hybrid guys like Gifford (and Jojo). Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Go down shooting. bring the heat. I’d rather be screamin “get him!!” A few feet away and miss (or actually get them) then watch a team get 6-12yd passes in the 4th qtr with no pressure or heat and having wide open guys catching and running 1 Quote Link to comment
