Hope that is due to good defense and not a bad oofnsive line allowing TFLs and Sacks
Not going to be too concerned about stats predominantly thrown up by backup quarterbacks. The D won the day for sure and is going to be good.
Leach said in the post interview they were mixing 2s and 3s on all the series after the first. Sawyer played an entire series and looked pretty good. Leach really likes this defense. You could tell.
Will Rogers had 3 series. 2 touchdowns and 1 int on those drives.
To be clear, these aren’t normal drives. They started at midfield and if the offense stalled they got extra downs. Some of those drives would have ended in a real game. The pressure wasn’t really coming from the tackle spots either, which is a good sign. Blitzes got home a lot right up the gut.
Our defense should be Top 15 in advanced stats. I can't remember a MSU defense that has this many guys with this much experience in their last year at MSU. Sure 2018 had more top end talent, but the overall depth and experience of this year's defense is a once in a decade type thing.
The O numbers are deceiving. The coaches were mixing it up a lot out there. It's just a scrimmage. Another practice report said the refs were letting the DBs get away with a lot holding and PIs. I wouldn't be surprised if Leach asked for that. The receivers have to nut up and fight through that.
Biscardi went 2 of 5 from FGs.
That ain't gonna cut it.
I have read all the scrimmage stats and saw no catches for Ducking. Did he participate?
