Georgia Tech debuts defensive 3-4 alignment at spring game

"The difference (from the 4-3 defense) is everybody out there knows what they're supposed to be doing," sophomore linebacker Jaquan Henderson said. "Not a lot of thinking. That's the main thing. Guys are making plays and putting guys in position to make a play."

Senior linebacker Brant Mitchell, who had a game-leading six tackles, said the defense was becoming more comfortable with the new scheme.

"It's growing more and more every day," Mitchell said. "It'll grow more when I learn what's going on around me and the defense learns why we're doing what we're doing. My comfort level increases day by day. There will be more meeting time and film studies in the summer and that will help us put one foot in front of the other and keep progressing."

Sounds the the backup QBs really should be backups. Shocking that CPJ could be correct!! Certainly hope we have more depth at o- line by the time the seasons starts.

So I think at the end of it, the Spring game was and is about the defense. Fact is with no contact on QB that removes about 60-70% of the play book. No real TO, no real counter or speed, no midline. Fact is in a real game CPJ maybe throws about 12 -15 times. But that being said I have been watching Bama and Georgia spring game and it is about the same. What good is watching Tech in a spring game just run the B-back down the throat of the defense.

But we didn't really do that last night.

Wow, people really reading a lot into a spring scrimmage.

Hey y'all, I know a lot of people have talked about it, but King was kicking very well. When I started paying attention at halftime, King made all of his warm-up kicks of 30, 37, 47, 57, and 55ish (left hash) yards. He made whatever was before 30 yards, but I didn't see where he kicked from. King could probably go from 62-65 based on the 57-yarder I watched.

I think he is over the groin injury from last year that resulted in him never living up to pre-season expectations. We MAY FINALLY have a kicker again. I just wish they had done kickoffs last night, even without returns, just to give him on-field practice doing them.

I think with the new kickoff rules (fair catches inside the 25 come out to the 25) that kickoffs are not going to matter much for the most part. Most teams are going to be fair catching anything inside the ten if they know what's good for them, and most everything else too, for that matter. But given our past woes on coverage, some teams might be more willing to take a chance against us and try to run one back. We need to make them pay if they do.

I was mostly watching skill players, and it was hard not to watch the defense, so I didn’t notice who was on the line. Braun and Cooper were out and Lee was at Center. I didn’t notice Bryan. Did anyone take note of who else was on the starting OL?

I noticed WB (#70) on the sidelines a lot Has the full beard goin' on.

I’m sure it’s the angle of the picture, but his leg...... (TO)
