[QUOTE="Sideways, post: 313701, member: 2451"] If it were me preparing for Tech (I know big IF there but bear with me) I would seek to emulate what Virginia Tech does. 1) Put my best tacking athlete up on the line and try to shoot the gaps pretty much every other play. Could be a corner or a safety but he has to be a good tackler and be smart about taking risks. 2) Be sure that the tackles and middle linebacker play the dive. Try to get the tackles to slow down the center getting to the second level blocking the middle linebacker. 3) Pound it into the outside linebackers and safeties heads to play the pitch. Damn it don't get fooled by the eye candy. 4) Corners are to play man to man on receivers. 5) Penetration by tackles and ends are key. Disrupt the quarterback's timing and making him "bow out" on option plays is half the battle. 6) Pray that Mills does not make it to the second level with a head of steam 7) Watch Lynch like a hawk. That is one sneaky SOB that will get us beat either running the ball or receiving. 8) Fight off the blocks and make open field tackles on pitch plays at or behind the LOS. Physical fast play by linebackers, safeties, and corners is critical. Damn it, don't let them get to the corner. Just my two cents FWIW [/QUOTE]
