Shedeur Sanders - 2023-25 Tracking History Thread

The TT defensive strategy was reminiscent of when Penn State upset Miami for the national championship. Entire game plan was to keep the receivers in front, put a lot of responsibility on the linebackers, and force Testaverde to be patient enough for 10+ play drives in order to score points. I thought Shedeur handled this exceptionally well by not getting impatient and by avoiding turnovers. Particularly impressive because our Buffs had zero success running the ball so it was 100% on him.

Those LBs for Texas Tech can cover. I don't know if other Big XII teams have the coverage skills at LB to do so. BYU LBs look pretty athletic. But Utah, OK State and Kansas don't have those type of LBs making this approach possible

McShay loved the game because of his anticipation skills was on full display

That does explain his bouncing and floating around early in the pocket. He was convinced and confident he could shred them, but if they cannot sack him, and we choose not to run the ball, then play cover on top of cover. Could we not have ran on the edges?

The problem is that it's almost impossible to keep the CU WRs in front of you after they get the ball. This becomes even harder when your DBs are playing too soft at the line.
