After all the pre-season hype and YouTube short series I was expecting much more production what do you all think?

Right now they're rotating DLs so he's not in on every down. Also, with all the hype comes a lot of focus; he's been double-teamed when he's in. That's one reason why Poling was so effective against UK. Their blocking scheme -- in part to handle Basham -- created gaps up the middle that Poling came through.

Somewhat related...On obvious passing downs, when we 'bring the house' blitz we always seem to do it in a balanced way. With a blitzer on each end and one up the middle. Or lots of guys straight up the middle.

Wasn't working against stupd cow.

Watching NFL last week, I saw blitzes effective from overloading one side such that a well-coordinated O-line (such as stupd cow clearly had) couldn't handle it. There was just too much manpower coming from one side (preferably forcing the qb to scramble to his 'wrong hand' side).

We should've used overload blitzing against stupd cow when other pressure didn't work.

61 yard completion on 3rd and 30--are you kidding me.

That was such an easy thing to predict. I knew as sure as I was breathing oxygen and drinking beer that Marshall would somehow pick up that first down. You have all the cards on 3rd and 30!!! Why do you send the house?? Why give up your advantage by taking an unnecessary risk?? Why does coach Burrow do this? and how does a defender let a receiver get behind him that quickly? Were we even trying? later in the same drive we had them 3rd and 26 and they damn near got it. We can talk about how young and inexperienced our offense is but our super experienced defense just got assaulted to the tune of 700 yards. Seven. hundred. effing. yards. Somehow, the word got out about our offensive and defensive schemes, because they just don't seem to work against anyone. Kent is a joke, so I don't really take any solace in the fact that we finally managed a three-point victory against a crappy team that for some inexplicable reason has been in our head so badly in recent years.

Stuff like that even happens in the pros. Yesterday, the Broncos were 3rd & 24 and ran a draw play that got 23. They then lined up quickly on 4th down and ran an inside run that got the first before the Chiefs could get settled (the Broncos hadn't substituted but the Chiefs where trying to shuffle in DLs and weren't fully lined up; since the Broncos didn't substitute, the refs didn't have to stop play for the Chiefs to line up).

Yeah, stuff happens, but right now it looks like a disturbing trend. twice in one drive, several 3rd and longs converted by Kentucky the week before.

Through seven games this season he has 22 tackles, 2 TFLs and 2 sacks, which over 12 games would translate to about 38 tackles, 3.5 TFLs and 3.5 sacks (his only TFLs have been sacks). In the first 12 games last year he had 30 tackles, 8.5 TFLs and 6.5 sacks. Tackles are up but TFLs/sacks are down. He's second on the team in sacks, behind Poling. The top three in TFLs on the team are linebackers (Johnson, Poling & Brown). Because of last year, he's probably getting a lot of attention in opponents' game plans.

I ask, Where is William Johnson? He started at Kentucky at OLB and now is nowhere to be seen. I know he is in the coaches doghouse for some non-disclosed reason but I think it has been several weeks since he played. Anyone got the skinny on this?

Last word was that he had been suspended due to some undisclosed rules violation, and placed on the scout team. It was not disclosed how long his punishment was for. I have no idea whether he will play again this year or not.

We could use his size , speed and experience. I hope he gets out of the doghouse and onto the field soon.
