I’ve been watching some UW games from last year, and I don’t quite know how to feel about a specific thing.
The defense was just sloppy in terms of tackling, gap discipline and closing down space in the secondary. In the one hand, this is concerning because the coach’s background is defense. In the other, these things seem somewhat fixable through reps, training and such.
It’s also interesting to see that the 3-3 they’re nominally playing is not only a 3-3, but very often a 4-2 or 2-4 in function.
(Offense was more an issue, and a lot of personnel was swapped out. But issue No. 1 was the OL getting is ass kicked a lot. Fixing that would be super)
