Vines from Maryland Game

[wyldhawk9]

These are my favorite blog posts to digest each week, so I thought I would share. If anyone else does this kind of breakdown, please feel free to share. I love reading up on the technical aspects of our team - this one just happens to be entirely focused on the defense.

Defense Vines from Maryland Game

The defense is why we are winning, and Cole Fisher is a key cog.

Vine #1 - Well played by pretty much everyone. Meier does a very good job of containing the QB until he get rid of it and then chases the RB from behind, ie no cutback. Niemann sets the edge and sheds the blocker well. Taylor flies in, breaks down, and blows up the RB.

Vine #2 - When you have a DT stretching the RB outside the numbers, 5 yards behind the LOS, you are typically going to have a TFL.
