Couple answers to help the guys as they are recording.
1. As per the D scheme. The Griz have been using mostly a 3-3-5 this year by necessity because of lack of D Line depth I assume. When Robertson is in, he is practically a linebacker so in terms of run fits it is not like we are playing another 175 pound safety. In theory, with 5 DBs we should be better against the pass, but our safeties are quite aggressive and downhill players that sometimes get fooled and take bad angles. Mixing coverages up too helps confuse the O and while sometimes getting torched happens, when there is no run game and the QB is getting hit hard every play, it is hard to sustain. The Griz also mixed in a good number of even (4 man) fronts vs SLU which seemed to work most of the time as there was not much tape of the Griz doing that this season. I would think those will continue vs Weber as the Wildcats will have some different plays drawn up to try and exploit what they saw. One thing you can't account for is number 33 who makes any run D much better and also covers a ton of ground in the flat. Nothing against the other front guys, but the Griz lack some big maulers in the box which contributes to the need for our safeties to help in run support. Communication could still be better in the back end and they work on that and coverages every day, it's still a real young group besides Calhoun. I love the personality of this D and they bring their best every game, not gonna win every play. That's Football.
2. JLM. He will get more chances as teams key more on Toure. It's really a pick your poison, and Rosy is a savant at drawing it up. Teams are going to have to double #8 which takes a safety out of the box which will open up JLM, TE's, Mitch, and of course the run game. I think JLM is just fine contributing and drawing a defender as Samori absolutely torches secondaries across the FCS.
Go Griz, beat the weebs!
