Defense=Run to the ball, gang tackle, run through your tackles, take the proper angle, play your gaps and knock the crap out of the opponent. No defense should be "too hard to learn." Whenever I go to a high school game and see coaches on the sidelines giving all kinds of hand signals to the players on the field, I simply wonder if it is more about the coaches trying to make an impression on the fans rather than turning the kids loose to play the game. Why should a defensive play book be complicated? No amount of scheme or technique on defense can trump physical desire to play the game. UCLA game is a prime example of a team that played hard, and because of that they won the game fair and square. You can have all the stars you want in your back pocket but when you line up on defense, don't try throwing them down in front of your opponent and expect them to just roll over and back off. You have to be able to freaking kick their rear ends.
