It may be easier said and done, but it's that if your scheme is set up to trick the quarterbacks eye's during the play, your chances of turnover naturally improve. I'd love to hear some thoughts from a defensive mind on this. I'm not that educated in the X&Os so I'm interested to see who would like to shed some knowledge on this.
UGA ranked number 1 against the run last year, but gave up very large yardage via the pass especially against Bama and the Gators. They need to keep the run defense very strong, but stress a defense against strong arm QB's. The Clemson QB can sling the ball, and has great WR's to receive the ball, but he can hurt you with his legs also.
