Not sure if that is a good idea or not when playing those teams that like to spread things out. I think that is why many teams went to a lot of 2 LB sets against certain teams.

In our spring game we had a few times LBs were chasing wide open WRs.
Who do we play early that runs a spread? I'll wait :waiting:

Well even not playing the Big 12 type spreads I reviewed the tape and caught about 4 times in the first half alone of the spring game a LB was trying to chase a WR up the seam in coverage just with the Franks possessions. You allow that to happen too much and that WR will get loose and get some big gains. These were slot guys and the wideout - I saw Callaway and Powell specifically a few times being chased by a LB only.

People say he ran a lot of that against Iowa but they never really tried to open things up to attack it.

Neither will Michigan...they run 2 TE sets and any slot receiver they have Johnson can run stride for stride with. Harbaugh is going to line it up...then try to run it right down our throats...Randy knows that!

I assume that is what Michigan will do mostly but Shannon has always ran that mostly I think and he hasn't called the games in a long time prior to Iowa I think. Did he call the Bama game can't remember? Maybe it will be no issue at all but I hope when we play the teams that can attack it he isn't hard headed about going to 2 LBs.

Michigan does have some young quick receivers I think but they are inexperienced.

Now this is a smart idea...guess Mac is finally getting the folks at UF to spend some money and get us the stuff everyone else (who is a top tier team) already has.

He won't be...Marco and a couple of the new guys are working at Nickel so I'm sure they'll use it against the spread teams. He's just trying to get them ready for Michigan right now and week 2 you'll start seeing us get ready for Tenn.

Coach Davis getting on Mike's sorry a$$ at the end. "Does it make sense to go around him or go through him...c'mon get the play started SON" :lol:

Honestly, I didn't see the footwork issue on issue with McCoy until I watched it three times. I guess that's why he is the coach.

My son laughed at the Mike thing. He said, you're supposed to hit the end first on the combo block not just throw up an arm. LOL, he is in his third week of football.

Game over. We haven't had a QB throw before the cut since Chris Leak.

By early i mean in games 1 or 2. BTW...Tenn is going to be garbage this year
Tinerc has been garbage the last two years. WTF!? Our defense is garbage now.

Butters gets outcoached by Bytch and people still just pretend a win is a given. Hilarious. Shyt we scored 10 points against them with Grier. What do you expect this year?

Look, I'm with you. Freshmen can easily play CB. It's the easiest position on the field for freshmen to play.

Glad to see he's paying attention and learning fast. Tell him good luck and we all here hope he has a healthy/successful season! #ChompChomp

That's the first thing that I noticed about him. Not that he throws the prettiest ball but he's constantly hit receivers in stride and hitting them at the High Point. If I see our QBs throw one more low dart into the knees of our receivers I'm going to have a seizure.

Don't watch the Del-Rio clips then!
