Bama and Stanford thats about it.. Christian Jones was 240 at OLB but moved to DE his sr year because FSU had no pass rushers at all..
Jones actually moved to the Jack LB position- DE/LB hybrid. FSU moved from their new 3/4 defense to a 3-3-5 defense after the BC game. They weren't dependent on the 3 down linemen to generate the pass rush because they blitz heavily from other positions- Joyner led them in sacks. FSU was still able to finish #16 in sacks even without a pass rush from the D-line.
Wish we played aggressive similar to them.
Nope. There's plenty of posters defending this defense.
You going to play aggressive and rush 5-6 when your cover linebackers are Gaines and Cornelius, and your last line of defense is Highsmith and Rodgers?
I'm holding judgement until I see this defense actually playing 11 vs 11 instead of 8-9 vs 11.
If we don't see serious improvement this year then I will lead the Fire Doritos Brigade, if we DO see marked improvement in sacks, turnovers and yards, then I'm hoping you haters shut the Fuuck up.
