[QUOTE="billga99, post: 976966, member: 1618"] I am not sure the Syracuse game is a good indicator of linebacker play against other teams. Against Syracuse, they ran the majority of the time or did quick WR screens. What they didn't do was pass downfield. Linebackers normally need to get involved with the run and also drop back to prevent passing in the short and intermediate zone. With the pass drop back not required against Syracuse, they could concentrate on the run. Against teams that mix up the run and pass, it is a more complicated scheme for the LBs. Obviously UGA is great and has tremendous TEs. But against more teams at our level, the ability of LBs to make plays on the run and not leave huge holes in the 5 to 10 year pass zones is what makes a Linebacker successful. [/QUOTE]
