[QUOTE="ctcjb, post: 88256, member: 776"] The most frustrating thing for me today watching the game was the realization that we have zero depth on our defensive front seven. A couple of points: - We only play 3 defensive tackles (I think). Did Kallon get any snaps today? There were a couple of plays where Green was tapping to come to of the game, but Gamble was already subbing for Gotsis so he had to stay for a few more plays. Watching Ole Miss and A&M tonight, they are rotating 8 players on the D-Line. We just don't have the ability to do that. - When we knew Duke planned to run the ball in 4th quarter, we were forced to play a safety (Smith or Austin) as our 3rd linebacker. I was curious why we couldn't play Q, Marcordes and Davis. - In short yardage and goalline situations, we don't have enough bodies to go to a true "heavy" package on defense. Our solution is to line Davis up as a defensive end and walk two safeties up as linebackers. I realize that attrition has killed us here. I hope we are able to recruit our way out of this....soon. At this point, I am not sure we can recruit too many defensive linemen. [/QUOTE]
