PSU D vs. SMU Film Study
See link above. Tom Allen's newest finest hour -- shades of the Illinois game where in the second half his ability to pair hard-to-decipher coverages worked in harmony with simplistic but effective pressure schemes. On the back end, this looked a lot like what we saw Indiana do in 2020...which we had not seen much of in 2024 because Franklin prefers to showcase his athletes in man rather than zone. Have to wonder if that coverage ratio gets closer to 50-50 in the playoff considering how maddening this was for Jennings to figure out?
