The DE's were horrible and when they didn't play their position correctly it then took the LB's out of position as well. For about 3 straight games now, none of our blitzes are getting home... almost every blitz we have thrown at Baylor, Arizona and OSU have been stopped at the LOS. We are getting some pressure on the QB, but our sack product has severely dropped off since Kansas St.
Interior DL has been an issue now, since again... the Kansas St. game. I don't know if there are injury issues here, but something on this defense is not right since the Kansas St. game. Our tackling hasn't looked right, our blitzing has not looked right, LB's are out of position, DE's are out of position. Safety and Corner are the only 2 positions right now that have looked as they should.
If a 5th year senior is going to struggle and be out of position over and over and over again, I'd rather struggle with Asiata instead and have him go through the growing pains of the learning the ropes.
