[QUOTE="Techster, post: 79325, member: 360"] If you look at the 2012 tape of our offense versus their defense, you can see the progression of VT's defense to 2013. [MEDIA=youtube]5XNuY2Yx8zI[/MEDIA] In 2012, Foster was shooting the gaps, except he waited until AFTER the snap to do it from the defensive alignment. In 2013, Foster just out and out put a man in the gap and declared his intentions: [MEDIA=youtube]7MjWxMkicPc[/MEDIA] In theory, what he did was give us a 5 man front look if you count Kyle Fuller (#17) as a DL. This should be a lot easier to block than how he defended us in 2012 because you don't know where the extra defender is coming from after the snap. The OL and ABs have to read who they're blocking on the fly. There's more moving parts to adjust to. If you look at the first play in 2013 where we fumbled, VT gave up acres of space to the right. I think this is where the no-huddle approach that Navy employs can play to our advantage. It gives a young QB time to look at the field with our staff, and check to another play where we can run to the side with a numbers advantage. That first play in 2013 was a VERY exploitable situation. To a man, every player and coach said they knew what was coming in 2013. You can prepare, but if you don't execute on game day it means nothing. The staff has had a full offseason to digest the 2013 matchup, and I'm sure we've prepared for every scenario going back to CPJ's first matchup with VT in 2008. VT's defense is hit or miss...something CPJ brought up this week and Stylee alluded earlier. Big plays are there for us. We just have to execute. [/QUOTE]
