Nebraska put up 435 total yards on USC's defense. I hope we get to play them in New Orleans. This USC team can't hold Matt and Reggie's jock.
Our defense is great. I can't wait to see how it matches up with Fla. O. They (Fla) are very diverse, run alot of misdirection options and play action. They will probably be our toughest test.
Obviously, our biggest strength on D is our front 7. If/when we shut down the run option without having to put our safties in the box and force Fla. to become one dimensional, it will be all over but Meyer crying. (pun intended) :lol:
I agree that Florida will/should be our toughest test (maybe all season), but Tennessee had a decent game plan for them, and were effective for much of the first half. The problem was the UT is not very good and not very deep. Their defense is weak. Ours is not, and I'm sure we'll put in a game plan that will stall Florida more often than not. Another key will be for our offense to exploit any and all inexperience on their young "D."
