Too much size is not the problem at LB…8 is not real good diagnosing and 31 at edge just gets dominated against the run when he’s on the play side. Expect to see a heavy dose of power until the Ags show they can line up and make some basic run fits. 9 last year cleaned a lot of things up.
While we may need work on run defense, we should also acknowledge the great job they did - 6 TFL, 5 sacks, and 1 INT. I can't recall the last game we got 5 sacks, maybe Biggs last year?
