Louisville stop rate defense ranked 92nd

The defense is pretty good if you take away the explosive plays where guys blow a coverage. In every defense players have an assignment. On the 4th down call someone was assigned to that tight end. Whoever screwed that up either was confused or ignored their coaches.

When players are consistently lost or not is the right spot that is coaching. Good defenses rarely blow coverages. Louisville is constantly blowing coverages or assignments. It is OK to get beat by better players but what can’t happen is to leave betters players wide open because a player was confused or didn’t follow their assignment.

Scoring defense and offense is what I look at because that is all the really matters.
Both busted plays in the BC game are basic alignment breakdowns. Cornerback shouldve had coverage on the TE and outside backer on Ward! My 6th grade team understands that concept! Embarrassing!

Clarkson?

I have to say I'm surprised and disappointed we haven't seen Clarkson this season. If he has star potential, one would think he could get some "Wildcard" formations or goaline opportunities for a RPO.

I think Brohm could use a run threat QB as a change up, giving the offense more options. Some zone reads on those short yardage plays.

But it seems to me he must not be the obvious next big thing or he would get some play packages I would think?

Who thinks Brohm will have another tall, dropback QB from the portal to start next season? Or will Clarkson get the chance?
At some point, Brohm is going to have to give chances to the current backups on the team. Sure you want them to earn their starting spots, but it just doesn’t make sense for him to continue to sit Clarkson, Adams and Allen for next season. they all know the system.

A Honest Discussion

It is always both. All I know you aren’t to compete for conference or a playoff spot you better have Top 20-50 units. If either unit is outside of that range good luck. The only way around that reality is one of the units would have to be elite.

Doesn’t matter to me who coaches the defense but it has to be a Top 50 unit every year. They have enough resources to perform at that level.
