That ties into #3. Crowton needs to be just as aggressive as he was that 2nd half of the Auburn game. The big plays are going to be there waiting for us in the passing game, I have faith Crowton will go for the carotid/jugular/scrotum/Tebow'sTearDucts.
I don't think Beckwith being out was the primary issue. Chad Jones has been blowing a lot of coverages, and our DC's have been having issues getting the calls in. I'm confident that they got this fixed over the bye-week.
That ties into #4. Let's establish the fact that they can't stop our run, force their safeties and LBs to play closer to the line, and then hit them over the top and across the middle of the field.
I assume you are much more confident with Beckwith in place of Cutrera? And yes, 2 weeks means Miles has twice to time to prepare to make you look really bad on national tv.
I think our punting game needs to be thicker -n- thieves. Dalfrey has been deadly with his punts, placing the ball where it is hard to run and getting great rolls. We just cannot afford to have any ran back on us. James is just plain evil and coverage needs to be there.
I gotta believe they have instituted some pooch punting as well as being directional, so that James would have to both shift over to one side of the field as well as pick up the ball on the run in order to get a return on us. That would not be an easy proposition on his part. Don't be surprised if we get a fumble out of it due to an overzealous James.
Good call. I have noticed that we have been more vulnerable with returns up the middle, not giving up the sidelines. We have not been afraid to kick it to opposing threats returners so I agree with the strategy.
Of course I perfer Beckwith, but considering UF's lack of running game I don't think our LB's will be a big factor.
The key to the game is the clock. I would just assume Scott lower his average to 3.5 ypc and get it about 40 times. They can't score if they never get the ball.
