Little concerned about the pressure the D-line created. Most of the pressure came on blitzes. And they blitzed a lot. With Sutton and Josh you could rush 4 and drop LBers into coverage. That won’t be a luxury we have this year.
We had the best rushing D-Line in the country last year. It’s time to get over not having Sutton & Corcoran anymore. I thought the D-line got better as the game went. And their pressure forced that key turnover. Hammock sees the weaknesses. They will continue to get better. We just need to stay healthy.

It scares me to blitz so much. Just leaves you open to big plays. And with how good this D is, big plays are the only way most Mac teams will score enough to win.
