🏈 noseguard over center

[shiloh]

So, if Texas' biggest problem throughout this season was the offensive line, specifically the center, who had a huge problem with Suh sacking McCoy over and over.... doesn't that look to be a glaring problem for them when you have Cody at the noseguard spot? What do you think they'll do? Did anything work against Suh?

I don't know what they might have figured out to work, but obviously nothing worked against Suh when one person has 4.5 sacks in a single game! Cody isn't a sack monster like Suh is, but he can tie up both the center and someone else, that gives Ro or some of the others free reign to get to Colt. Really, though, I think we'll just let our front 3 or 4 put pressure on Colt, but not really bring in LB's that much, so we can contain him in the pocket. I predict a few CB or safety blitzes, but pretty similar to the way we handled Tebow. The biggest problem is that Tx has more of an outside threat than Fl did.

I agree that our defensive scheme may be similar to that of the UF game. McCoy is their best threat at a running game and I believe we try to contain him and limit his scrambling.
