Think what you want ,we are one of the smallest defs in big 5.That may not hurt really but we do NOT make up for that by being very being quick,fast, nor particularly instinctive.Add in questionable def schemes and we are not that good even though we have lots of exp.. If you want to see good def ,see the clem /awbern game. wow!
btw-I still can not believe UT loses 2 OTs and BEST WR, runs 96 plays (while we should be fresh) and still moves on us at end like we are FCS.
also-It may not mean much, but I saw in the unc game, a Lville back broke free down sidelines --60 yds down field he was caught from behind by a DEF TACKLE--6-6,300 lbs. Now that is athletic ability (and desire).and unc isn't that good.
