Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Can someone explain this defense ? Oregon will destroy UW

    I compared this to the last series on defense.
    The linebackers are way to bunched. What the actual fuck? Even if they spread out 2 feet, they stop that play and Stanford punts. Also looking at the play the safety could have flashed and back pedaled. Horrible fucking defense. And did Stanford even have receivers playing?
    I dont see how the lbs would have affected the play?

    Watch the last series it's sort of similar. Basically they leave a wise open receiver with no threat to cover. Stanford's qb does a pre snap read knows where he's going with the ball. With a LB spread out he's more of a threat to the qb. It's not a tough defense to play against. To Lakes credit he fixed some of this throughout the game

    Oregon will run for 200+ yards. But there's still a chance.

    Oregon is still only the tallest midget in the PAC 12. UW’s secondary and Brown is an advantage for UW. The good news for Oregon is when Brown misses it doesn’t usually go to the other team.

    Brown isn't an advantage for UW. Have you seen how poorly the defense fares against mobile QBs? He doesn't even have to throw.

    This was Hiles second snap at Safety and he lined up and played incorrectly. This defense was a cover 0 full man. Hiles backpedals and looks into the backfield like he is playing zone safety.

    I didnt see any more egregious mistakes like this from him during live play.

    IMO Hiles looks good as a safety/nickel/striker and adds a ton more versatility to the defense. Should have been playing there from the start of the season. Hope he puts in the work I could see him playing like a Molden, Myles Bryant, or poor mans Buddha at the position.

    I still dont really get why he left Oklahoma though.
