PSU D vs. OSU FILM STUDY
See Link. After watching (and editing this) T-Frank's postgame note really rang true -- that Penn State's 50 minutes of defensive success had as much to do with what Ryan Day wasn't doing than with what Manny Diaz was doing. It's almost like Day was coaching with one arm tied behind his back, making life difficult for his offense when it didn't have to be. IDK. Finally, anyone else over that Cover 0, crowd everybody at the line on 3rd and long blitz package yet? I get the confusion that it can cause upfront, but what I don't get is why the "droppers" engage upfield briefly before they drop -- seems like a tough ask for those guy (who aren't used to moving backwards) to go in reverse and cover that ground when their first step is upfield.
